How To Propagate Succulents
From Leaf:
Carefully remove the lower leaves from the stem
Make sure to get a “Clean Break” from the stem
Place leaves in a shallow tray on dry potting soil out of sunlight for a few days/ up to several weeks to allow the end of the leaves to “Scar/Heal” over
Place the calloused end of the leaf in dry potting soil to encourage a “Pup” to emerge
Gently mist the leaves and soil being careful not to over water in order to avoid rot
BE PATIENT! (This step could take 1-2 months)
Once you have a new baby plant with leaves and roots and you can begin to feed and water your plant
From Cutting:
Carefully strip lower leaves off stem leaving about 1-2 inches
Fill a trracotta pot with potting soil
Use a stick, pencil or scissors to poke a hole into the soil and arrange the cuttings making sure to loosely tamp down the soil
Everywhere there was a leaf/stem juncture is a potential for roots to grow, so getting as many junctures below the soil line is the best practice
Gently mist the cuttings and soil—but keep the soil on the dry side in order to prevent rot
In 3-6 weeks, cuttings should have roots and you can begin to feed and water your plant
