☀️ Light
☀️☀️▫️ (Medium)
Your plant cuttings thrive best in medium light conditions. An ideal spot is near a window with filtered light or a well-lit room where direct sunlight does not hit the plants directly. This helps prevent leaf burn while ensuring your cuttings get enough light to grow.
? Water
??▫️ (Medium)
Water propagation requires changing the water every few days to keep it fresh and free of bacteria, which encourages healthy root growth. For moss or soil propagation, keep the medium moist but not waterlogged to prevent rot.
?️ Temperature
?️?️▫️ (Average)
Room temperature (around 18-24°C) is perfect for your cuttings. Avoid placing them near draughty windows or heat sources like radiators, as fluctuating temperatures can hinder root development.
? Humidity
??▫️ (Moderate)
Cuttings benefit from moderate humidity. This can be achieved by misting the leaves occasionally or placing a humidity tray near the plants. This mimics the humid environment of a greenhouse and helps the cuttings root faster.
? Substrate
For best results, use fresh sphagnum moss or a well-draining soil mix. Sphagnum moss is particularly effective for maintaining the necessary moisture level without becoming waterlogged.
? Pet Friendliness
Be cautious as some cuttings may not be pet-friendly. Please check the specific plant type against your pet’s curiosity and ensure a safe environment for all.
? Recommended Locations at Home
Place your cuttings in a bright bathroom, kitchen, or near an east-facing window where they can enjoy indirect light and stable temperatures.
? Air Purifying
Many common houseplants used in cuttings, like Philodendron and Monstera, are known for their air-purifying qualities, making them not just beautiful but also beneficial for your home environment.
✨ Other Plant Features
Beyond their aesthetic and air-purifying qualities, engaging with plant cuttings can be a therapeutic hobby that enhances your living space and wellbeing.
