Why should we let cuttings callus in propagation? 🤔

Man this rocks! I've just been free-for-all-ing my succulents with quite a bit of success but I'm wanting to "root" out a bit and propagate faster than I have been by just guessing and getting surprised.

If you dont let them dry and put them right into soil, depending on the variety there is a relatively high chance it will rot.

Thanks for your sharing 🥰

I have few plants like this ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@stephyk1322]

Do we put in wet or dry soil

[@dawnheard1263]

Then before you finally do plant it, I dip the callous into cinnamon before I poke it into the soil. Just to protect it so it doesn't rot......I do this all plant would. It's kinda like the peroxide of the plant world..,...lol 🩷

[@SucculentsBox]

Yes, it's also a good way

[@katherinemarrero9165]

So what do I do with the rest of the stem ?

What are those beautiful pink succulents called? ❤

[@kaze1507]

Might be a pink ice plant 🤔

[@dis.j0int652]

Can you do water propogation? Like have the stem shallow above water until roots show

[@kaze1507]

You can but there is really no point to it. It doesn't propagate faster but instead increases the chance of rotting due to the high moisture.

[@SucculentsBox]

Sure. We will consider doing it soon
