Propagating a snake plant in water is a straightforward process. Here's how you can do it:
- Prepare the Cutting: Snip off a healthy leaf from the mother snake plant, making sure to cut close to the soil.
- Place in Water: Put the bottom part of the snake plant cutting in water. Make sure only about 25% of the leaf cutting is submerged.
- Provide Indirect Sunlight: Position the cutting in a location that receives sufficient indirect sunlight.
- Change Water Regularly: Change the water weekly to keep it fresh and prevent bacterial growth.
- Optional: Transfer to Soil: Once roots have sprouted, you can transfer the cutting to a pot with soil.
