How to Propagate Dewplants?
Primary propagation methods for dewplants include cuttings and seed sowing. Successful propagation hinges on several key factors such as adequate light exposure, appropriate temperature range (ideally between 65-75°F), and well-draining soil. Special considerations for dewplants involve ensuring cuttings are taken from healthy, disease-free plants and seeds require a warm, humid environment to germinate. Generally, propagating dewplants is straightforward, but care should be taken when handling delicate roots and optimizing growing conditions to prevent rot. To propagate from cuttings: 1) Select a healthy stem, 2) Cut a 2-4 inch piece, 3) Allow the cutting to dry and callus for a few days, 4) Plant in cactus/succulent mix, and 5) Water sparingly until roots establish. For seeds: 1) Sow in warm, moist soil, 2) Cover lightly with sand, 3) Keep at consistent warmth, 4) Water with fine mist as needed until germination.
