Loved this, so many different substrates, thank you!

That was a great video. You taught me a variety of different ways to root. Thank you, love your May♥️🌿

In order to make more valid conclusions I would suggest having at least 3 of each plant for a given substrate. I do understand how much of a pain that would be to set it up. Great video!

Really cool video! This really answered my biggest question on prop❤️

One of my favourite types of videos 😍😍 thanks heaps!

Great video, I enjoy these kind. Mae is so adorable! My go to prop substrate is perlite.

Great video! Water is my favorite for rooting most cuttings because it’s easier and cheaper than the other options. I also have used fluval stratum for some Hoya and a white princess cutting that wouldn’t root in water or moss. The WP is thriving in stratum, although the roots tend to grow up toward the surface, so I might put it in soil. I use moss in my prop boxes for wet sticks and small single leaf cuttings. I recently bought pon and put a begonia and a king anthurium in it, but haven’t tried rooting in it. I have several plants growing in leca and might try propagating my peru in it after watching this video.

You and May are both adorable! Great video!

love your dog!

I liked seeing so many different substrates for this experiment! I've definitely found that water and perlite (but in a closed humid environment like a clear bin or bag) works the best for me! But I'm DEFINITELY going to try sphagnum next time I try to root my Peru to see if I have any luck with that cuz DANG those suckers don't seem to wanna live!😅🤞

And cats!!! Drives me crazy!

Oooh just found your channel! I’m in Clt too! I raise Neoregilia, Achmea and amphioxus begonias.

Aloha Queen City, Good job, & very interesting propagation video. Thank you!!!! I’m a water propagation guy, but I like my water fancy, haha….. I put a small ceramic magnet, & 3-5 mosquito bits into each water bottle, and all my propagation bottles are Perrier Bottles, haha….. Have over a hundred of them, hehe…. And here in Maui, Hawaii it’s a race, when water propagating, do you get roots 1st, or mosquito larvae???? So just a few mosquito bits keeps my water propagations mosquito free, the ceramic magnets changes the water structure, & of course the Perrier Bottles makes the water Fancy, LOL……… Aloha

That perlite looks and sounds like pumice. Mine is small and airy and makes no noise like gravel might.

M Peru is also one of my favorite plants❤ Lately I’ve had success propagating with Pon and putting Lecca in the bottom inch of the cup below the Pon. Hoping it’s not a plant crime to combine the two😅 Great video!

Thank goodness for cue cards. Lots of prepbonbyour part. I so agree with others..it doesnt make sense if using different plants with different materials. Should be the same plants in different materials. But we get the idea.

Thank you for this helpful video!! May I ask where you got your pitcher?

I don’t know if I heard how long before you checked for roots after initially planting them in the mediums.

The Peru gave me the hardest time. 3 yrs ago I bought a cutting an kept rotting off. The leaf turned yellow an kept babying it an that leaf turned back to green! I couldn’t believe it but it made it. Hard to root but very strong will too live! 💚 So even if it’s curling or yellowing just keep it an see what happens. 😀

Hoyas will root in anything. I am surprised by the fluval and perlite. I thought they were 100% guaranteed success.

I stick a chair in front of my shelf to keep my dog from my plants when i have to use my lower ones.

Where do you get your perlite from? I can’t find any grade higher then sand and dust!😆

Quick question about the pon. That didn’t look like lechuza. The reason I’m interested is because lechuza brand has fertilizer. Did the Lawson Plant co pon have fertilizer? I have a corn in Lechuza and I hope the fertilizer doesn’t kill it.

Do you have a link for the clear cups you use in the beginning of the video?

I love your video I like to propagate in water but I have a hard time transfering to soul

Hopefully a toy. 🤣 Sounds like May is a very active helper. Nice experiment. So is it the medium or the cutting that matters the most.

Can someone tell me the pros and cons between chunky or fine perlite please?

Hi just a suggestion if u propergate in leca why don't you continue growing it in leca? Hoya grows really well in leca and pon.

You should go through the same plants across substrates instead of all water, then all leca, etc. Then you wouldn't have to remind yourself what the Peru did, for example.

Bummer

hi i just enjoy your video and really love your plants! could you kindly offer your convenient email, we'd like to a collab with you
