Thank You for this detailed Masterclass, Ann! I've propagated pothos, syngonium so far in water. For Succulents, I didn't have much success on water propagation earlier, but now I know the trick :) (thankyou) Please keep these master classes coming. Love to have the basics cleared up.

[@veer810]

This video has much better photoquality than the older ones! Wonderful merch on spring!

[@runakgupta4879]

Thankyou so much for selecting me 😍🙏🏻 you made my day😍😍❤️❤️thankyouuuu

[@kishordas1953]

It's relaxing to watch plant rooting in water. Love your videos 💚

[@avneetkaur6573]

Trust me I am sitting next to my water propagated queen photos that i actually learned from one of your earlier videos.🥰❤️

[@rekhakhare7260]

I hate to watch videos with paid promotions.They really suck.And that's why your videos are the best👍👍.

[@pushpitadutta5070]

Thank you Anne for sharing another informative video again. About the Sansevieria cut which you mentioned apart from the 45deg angle, I try to do it to identify the top and bottom side of the cutting, otherwise it looks the same from both sides. Maybe some others do it for the same reason, not specifically for more surface area.

[@sushantsingh4684]

I have tried many plants in water and they all had been successful and after seeing your video had purchased a humidifier. Thankyou for your precious time and knowledge ( :

[@kadambininashine1453]

Definitely we need more propagation video. Never thought about pot shape for propagation. Thanks for letting us know😊

[@Ulyssa12]

I would love to see more videos on methods of propagating plant in other media!

[@abhilashabhardwaj6621]

This is the much needed class. I was so looking forward for it. I always lag in water propagation. But these tips and tricks are surely gonna help. Thanks a ton ❤️❤️

[@vaishnavisundaresan5841]

A very much wanted video for a beginner like me. Thanks for helping out the gardeners with tips and tricks. Love your videos and have learnt many things which is changing me from amature to intermediate level

[@vishalagarwal733]

Never tried it with a few drops of seaweed. Would surely try now! Thanks💚

[@pooja3295]

After watching your channel, I got motivated to clean my huge garden area backside of my house and started a vegetable garden. Thank you ufor the inspiration. :)

[@specialeffectsgraphicsdesi9066]

I had over watered a ZZ plant and it started turning yellow. I just took a chance, took just the leaves and put them in a pot full of plain garden soil. And the I kept the pot in a outside-corner of a window, and forgot about it. After around 4-5 months, I was cleaning that corner, and to my surprise, each and every leaf had shot out a new growth! I think, I've put up a combined pic of it on instagram. Please do make videos of other methods of propagation. Always a pleasure to learn from you.

[@sultanaliyakath4297]

Wow...how can i see the pik pls

[@ruparamakrishna5690]

Hey Ann, I have been doing water propagation for quite sometime and have seen success mostly and a little failure too with Sensaveria(gold dust, twister, moonshine)...I was eagerly waiting to see your water propagation master class....to learn and unlearn and this helps me in RW correcting my mistakes...for which greatful to you. Pls continue to do the masterclass for different types of sensaverias and for the soil balls propagation. Thank you, Rupa.

[@crvlasmy]

Your videos have given me some hope to multiply my plants. I always ended up spending a lot of money buying the same types. Some more methods of propagation would be great.

[@mantashakousar2035]

I love the process of propagating plants because this make me feel like a real and professional gardener and thanks for this video

[@arpithachinnu3916]

[@nupurphatarpekar]

Finally the video I have been waiting for! I have a lot of water propagations ready for transplants! Thanks a lot! God bless you guys ❤️

[@rohinijoseph188]

I always use water propagation as step 1 - usually when I break a stem by mistake. 😂 Then they go into a better prop method, depending on the plant.

[@mubashir_khan27]

What timing!! Monsoon is here, more plants to be bought and propogated!!!

[@brawlpoint696]

Yay I thought about propagating a bit of my cuttings and yes your video is well timed

[@yusrakhot4121]

You are such a expert 💚

[@vardanate2858]

Thanks a lot for this video! As you said in your last video that propagation should be done in monsoons so I was abt to do that. You uploaded this video at the right time. Now I can avoid the mistakes.

[@nikitamishra5095]

Good learnings.. thanks for sharing 👍

[@priyankakk5315]

If possible can you make a video on which plants can be left in water to grow.

[@SherieVu]

Is it ok to propagate different types of plant cuttings in the same jar of water? For example mint plant, basil plant, succulent plant all in the same glass jar?

[@ananyaboruah7725]

Your videos are always helpful

[@geetadesai7755]

[@josephinesangeetha7826]

Its awesome to be so knowledgeable but its even more awesome when you can share that knowledge with clarity and an appealing smile.... Good work ☺️☺️☺️

[@subhasreeroy1504]

Adding fertilizer was a new thing to learn. And it is true that right time of transplant is very important as I have lost few water propagated cuttings after I transplanted them into the soil. Such an amazing video❤

[@dhwanipatel6605]

Thank you for sharing wonderful info about propagation it's very useful

[@ashwinipatil6328]

Thats good tips you gave for spider plant thanq

[@brandonpontes7212]

Your videos and the information you share is always helpful to all the viewers. A big Thank You to you for sharing your gardening tips.

[@sumitasingh8444]

Nice videos, Ann... I water propagate a lot of cuttings, so agree with all the suggestions outlined by you... Have had success with most of my water propagations, but struggling with Syngonium Albo and leaf-less stem cuttings of Monstera Peru.... The first one didn't root at all, and died after a month, though in my experience syngoniums are pretty easy to water propagate... Monstera Peru leaf-less cuttings, on the other hand, are green and healthy looking after 3 months in water but show still no root or leaf growth....

[@riyarebeccakullu7361]

Needed this information about propagation. Thank you!!😃

[@vinuahuja2788]

Very helpful tips. Thank you!will help us save money and make more plants.

[@Xplorer.Xpedition]

Please continue with this series... Thanks

[@vineetasingh2967]

Thank u soo much for this information...☺️

[@jayughareja9522]

I always failed in water propagation 😔thank you for making this video 😊😃😊

[@rosemariesaldanha481]

Very informative video. I will definitely be following these tips. Can you please do a video on leaf propagation too, especially for succulents. Thanks so much.

[@rosujojo1147]

Coming back after a year and watching it again. Found this tip online a while back. Adding a drop or two of hydrogen peroxide 3% (Please make sure that it is 3%)will prevent the algae growth and accelerate the rooting process of the cuttings in water.

[@nupurbishwas1350]

So informative video... 👏👌

[@harjindersgarden9009]

Thanx ma’am for making vedio on this topic this is very helpful to grow more plant in water 😊

[@neeradanarayanan2633]

Needed this masterclass as I keep collecting cuttings and plant them in soil and can't see the progress and get frustrated 🙏🏻

[@veenajha4505]

[@JyotiYadav-mq7zb]

Have been waiting for this video for soo long.. Thank u for sharing this with us 😊😊

I am also plants and nature lover. And I try to propagate my plants cutting by water method. But it doesn't work. This video is very helpful for me. Thanku so much.

[@minecraftgamer3347]

3 like from meeeee Thanks for your knowledgeable videos

[@angeloxacur6777]

Warm or cold water works best for plants growing in water ?

[@veronicauqba7911]

Good tips...I succeeded with my syngonium some time back but now I have a cutting of it in water for the past week but still no signs of roots

[@poojakulthe883]

I love ur way of explaining things.. wanna meet u someday..🥰

[@swatipawar1491]

Hi Ann, Thanks for the to-the-point info on propagation through cuttings. While I have been following your advice for quite some time now, I have had success in propagating pothos, sansevieria, ZZ plant, Syngonium, and other philodendrons following the methods. However, I have failed miserably while trying with Ficus/rubber plant leaf cuttings. Please guide.

[@brandonpontes7212]

I guess the reason you failed in water propagation of ficus and rubber plant is the presence of nectar in the stem.

[@swatipawar1491]

@@brandonpontes7212 must be true. Seeing the leaves droop, I might have hurriedly put it in water before the letting the cut dry. Is stalk formation necessary for rubber plant cuttings to thrive too?

[@rounitamesar6903]

Tysm for providing water propagation master class as in a day or two I have to propogate some of my plants and now seeing your videos I know how to do it and am confident enough Also I had a question that in some plants which we bring from nursery it has plastic net basket for roots so while reporting should we cutoff the basket or as it repot it ?

[@AshleyDsouza-qm6if]

If u cut that basket make sure u cut it carefully so that the roots are not damaged. I tried it with my begonia but it lost all the leaves and now has started to grow new ones.

[@arunimasingh3075]

Definitely gonna try this mean of propagation....with ur tips in mind😁

[@Manoj-si5es]

Excited and interesting 💚✨

[@adityagaikwad4516]

Thank you mam for this knowledge ❤❤❤❤❤

[@rinkalsingh5790]

My money plant is not doing well in water .. everything it die ..I put new and after some days it again die ...what should I can do ??

[@manjujangid9378]

Amazing 🤩

[@pritathota]

Hi Ann, have never tried adding fertiliser to water propagation before. You mentioned a drop or two of seaweed extract. I have seaweed granules.Can you advise on whether I could use those too, and how much to add in about 750 ml of water ( abt a wine bottle size)? Thanks. Please do make a video on the other propogation mediums and how to choose which plants to propogate in which medum. That would be very helpful.

[@pritathota]

@Devanshi Mundhada Thank you for your inputs, Devanshi.

[@snigdhasatarupa6552]

I lost my snake plant due to low drainage and over watering, this is going to help me.

[@khari83637]

Any thoughts on sprinkling a bit of activated charcoal or tsp of hydrogen peroxide?

[@nishuagnihotry9174]

Its really informative and helpful video..👍

[@abidalizaidi6611]

GREAT!

[@hudashaikh5389]

I have just propagated my ajwain and snake plant in water 😊

[@gladusfalcao9120]

It's amazing thank you so much for sharing this, it was most need topic. How to propogate zz plant??

[@AshleyDsouza-qm6if]

If u want a new plant instantly them divide the rhizomes of the plant. If u want to try something else then take the leaves of the zz and put them in soil with the petiole in the soil and the leaf above the soil. This method is always successful but u will get a mature plant after an insanely long amt of time.
