# I’ve been growing my lemon lime cuttings in water for 2 months and…

_Posted by bvx on 2024-04-17_

I’ve been growing my lemon lime cuttings in water for 2 months and started adding liquid fertilizer about a month ago. Is this a new growth point growing out of the bottom of the plant? I haven’t seen this on any other cuttings that I have in water.

Is it fully connected to the stem of the plant? If it is growing off of it you should probably look up how to safely remove it. It looks like new growth from what I can see though.

Also that pot is so cute! Where did you get it?

Yeah it’s fully connected to the node so I think it’s new growth too. And I got it from Marshall’s! Last time I went they had a lot of similar mushroom vases 😊

this happens when my pothos were propped. if it’s new growth, it will likely find its way out of the pot!

Might be a tap root. Don’t remove it!
