DSH OUTDOORS Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 At what point do I propagate and what is the process? I have a few different tanks in the process of being set up and eventually I want to move some plants from this tank and my 75 over. Right now they are only a quarter full as I try to get dwarf baby tears to carpet. Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1moretank Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 I tried cutting a plantlet & piece of stem with visible root off a parent plant stem, and planting it - plantlet died. 2nd time, I laid the stem over and used hardscape to keep the plantlet roots pushed gently into the soil, waited until it stayed down when hardscaped was moved (I think 1-2 months, it was a while back). After the plantlet was rooted into the gravel, then I cut the stem and that plantlet lived, I pulled it up and moved it well after cutting the stem connecting the 2 plants. I use this method with house plants and in the garden, which is why I tried it. I would think any time after the plantlet has visible roots you could start the process. I'm sure there are other methods - this is just what I have done. Good luck. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
