Do you think it would be a success if I were to cut this bonus plant and repot it? It seems like it is starting to get heavy and I am curious about snipping it and propagating it or something.

Would I just cut and place in soil or would I put it in water?

I’d go right for soil!

Don’t water it for a few days. It needs to callus over before introducing moisture.
