I need some more help. šŸ˜¬ My string of dolphins has lost two other strands, I tried to water propagate, and propagate in soil, but both died. I have one strand left, and I really donā€™t want to loose it. Itā€™s under a grow light for 12 hours a day. Itā€™s always a little squishy and wilted. I have put the last string in the soil in hopes the pieces would propagate, but I havenā€™t had any luck with that. It was in a pot with no drainage and I think it wasnā€™t getting enough light and too much water. It has been in this pot for a while now. The roots were okay when I looked. I donā€™t know what else to do. Any advice appreciated. The profile picture is what it looked like when I got it. ā¬‡ļøā¬‡ļøā¬‡ļø

      Also maybe pin down the remaining string (I broke a paper clip in half) and mist the top every so often, just a suggestion thatā€™s how I got mine to root

    Circle it in the pot like you did before. All of those little ā€œknotā€ looking things on the stem CAN produce roots

      Okay, any tips on how to fasten it down? I tried paper clips but it wouldnā€™t hold it down

    I used Bobby pins, the wide ones used for buns & stuff. One time burried a pothos vine & just left the leaves out for photosynthesizing
