Go through and organize my propagation box with me! | I took these cuttings a year ago!

#propagation #plantcare #plantchores
I'm finally going through my propagation box! I felt motivated to go through it and take care of all the props inside after a year or so of being in there. I have a plant to acclimate them and hopefully, they will all do okay!

    This video is appreciate 😊 I currently have some pothos wet sticks, alocasia corms, and a spider plant root 🌿 in moss propagating right now. 🎉 A few rotted, but the others seem to be doing okay still. No real growth yet, but their still alive and green 💚 so we'll see what happens. I just started this prop box like two or three weeks ago. ❤ Your videos are always so informative and helpful so I love to watch them and learn as much as I can! Thank you for being you, and bringing so much joy and knowledge into the plant community 😄🌵💦👍 Yes, I'm watching a few of your old videos, but I'll try not to comment on all of them... I just can't help it. Lol 😅

    Love this! Wish I would have watched it earlier as I didn't acclimate my scindapsus silver hero slow enough and lost a lot of leaves... now I'm back to wet sticks. Also, my three kings syngonium was VERY mad at me when I removed it from humidity too fast. Your idea of lid off and on over a period of time was very helpful. Thanks Melissa! Would love a wet stick video! More info on what to wait for etc before potting.

    Your efforts to bring a major task up to date is inspiring me to do the same. I have about 8 plants that haven’t been repotted in a few years and they desperately need it. This will be done by Christmas, I promise. If plants could revolt I’d be in trouble. Again, thanks for the inspiration and major kudos to your organization skills and your plantology.

    In the beginning I did and it should definitely get good light when you're starting them and trying to get them to root but since this was a closed system for awhile and the cuttings had a ton of roots it was fine to lower the light :)

    This was very useful video for me. Thank you :) I just want to ask: how long does this process (opening prop box every day) take? 2 weeks? Month? Longer? I understand that you prolong time when container is open but can you be more specific please? 1. day = 1 hour, 2. day = 2 hours but what will you do on day 12 and after? I have never done this and I need foolproof instructions :D Thanks.

    i almost never do holes in the bottom of moss prop cups, esp from a prop box. it takes a lot longer for them to dry out which is great for fragile moss roots, and ny extra water at the bottom(shouldnt be much if youre mindful) will get wicked up to the top by the moss
