Ep. 25 - So You Want to Propagate...

Join us as we geek out about propagation, from Aroids to succulents, where we'll try to take you a level or two deeper than just *how* to do it.

Why does propagation from leaf cuttings work for some plants but not others? And why didn't that heart-shaped Hoya kerrii turn into a full plant? Then Matthew tries to move some of his plants into Stephen's windows. Stephen says NO.

Mentioned in this episode:

  • how to take cuttings, and what parts of plants can be used to grow new plants

  • how to root your propagates - in water, wet sphagnum, straight into potting substrate - and which methods are preferable for different kinds of plants
