    You can ake a hold for a funnel and put in the watering hole..i dont know who likes water methodneither lol appreciate your honesty! My mom does soil in a DQ cup and lid..nearly perfect rate of propagation.❤

    I propagate my African violets in water always. I can see roots within a month. I use shot glasses to grow mine. I keep the water level just a bit over the bottom of the stem keeping it always in water. The shot glass holds the leaf up and it won't fall deeper in the glass.

    Drying the cutting a few hours or more really helps to keep them from going soggy. I do it when i use soil. But ive been very successful doing it in water also.

    Best way is to use a piece of aluminium foil stretched over a wine glass full to the brim with tap water. Make about 5 holes using a kitchen skewer. Leaves stay dry. Roots in a few weeks. Never fails.

    Wow, so many angry critics! Easy to criticize, especially sitting on your couch behind a screen. So sad what our world has come to. If someone not adding water first doing a friendly experiment (and uploads their unedited/non heavily edited version) is the worst thing ever, enough for you to feel worthy of attacking someone, be thankful your life has so few bad things in it.
    Thanks for uploading the video and doing the experiment.

    I’ve use tinfoil. You can also create a collar that holds the leaves upright. It’s also all easier and more stable for lifting to water or check the roots.

  • @gailsantini679
    @gailsantini679 4 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    changing the water provides the roots with oxygen and will produce lots of roots and will avoid growth of fungi or bacteria; leaves rooted in water are provided with oxygen each time the soil is watered.

  • @triciak.bowers3569
    @triciak.bowers3569 3 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    I would suggest that you put only one leaf per container for the leaves in water; that way, the roots of the various leaves don't tangle together as they grow, and they won't have to be separated (which is a nightmare job, as the roots are very fragile and easy to damage).

    • @KittenBowl1
      @KittenBowl1 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      For people who do actually propagate an African violets from stems, we don’t let them grow that many roots. There will be very tiny short little roots. I have done this before many times successfully actually. As soon as they come out like 5mm stubs, we immediately plant them in propagating and seeding soil. So it’s ok to actually put multiple stems in a container like this. We do this so that to decrease the chance of rotting stems before rooting. It’s not necessary to grow big root systems in African violets. African violets themselves have very shallow root system even a mature plant. That’s why we normally plant them in a shallow container.

  • @monicar9781
    @monicar9781 5 ปีที่แล้ว +14

    I use a shot glass it holds them up and space saver also if you leave the stem that long yes it will root but the long stem takes forever for the babies because the roots are to deep in the dirt

    I have propagated av leaves in both soil and water and when I need to prop a leaf (like when you used tape) I use a saran wrap "pillow" In water, I know when to plant the leaf when I see little baby leaves along with the roots. Also I love the glad press n seal for rooting in water.

    Hi! I am new to your channel. Can’t wait til April to order!! Setting up lights and possibly a small humidifier.. I live in Arizona and it gets very dry here in the summer🙁. Hope my new babies will do well. Just a tip for you, when I used leaves with plastic over glass, I turned my leaves backwards so they would not lean forward at the stems😉 looks as though you got them all to sit upright tho, lol. Can’t wait to see which medium will work best!

    I always root my leaves in half-and-half, perlite and vermiculite, watering with pure water, no fertilizer, until there are plants on the leaves. Then fertilize, very dilute, with every watering, like all my other plants. It’s very interesting to see this experiment!

    Too many variables to be scientific. A lot of factors can affect the outcome. Condition of water, soil, light, pathogens on the unsterilized knife you cut them with, soil and water additives, cutting the tip of the leaves or not. See what I mean? People have been rooting AV leaves in water for decades with no problem. Personally I have a very high success rate with water and you can let those babies grow under water for a long time with no detriment to the plant. I can also root them by soil but it just takes longer for me.

    I have done this experiment putting them in water you're going to get beautiful African violets but with no blooms been there done that had beautiful African violets but with no blooms now putting them in soil and after they put off their offspring of 7 to 8 maybe 9 baby offsprings and putting them in soil again individual Dixie cups works best for me and when they matured into a beautiful African Violets they all bloomed

    For me, leaves in water never disappoints me.it roots so fast in water, dont know why.and for those leaves to stay in place, i use small pieces of styrofoam.or u can use any lil pieces like charcoal, or small roll of tissue paper.

    • @BloomloversAfricanViolets
      @BloomloversAfricanViolets  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thank you for sharing Joon. My favorite method is soil because it is just a one time action (plant and forget) ... in the water we have to put them in water, check on them and then transfer to soil (so two actions) however, I am enjoying the science experiment and I am also aware that many like you love the water method so it all makes sense to do this experiement. Happy growing and thank you for sharing. xx

      Hello Lynn, that does happen, I checked on these yesterday, some have started rooting and I have to film it but there is one of the leaves that is rotting... I don't have the answer for this as rooting in water is not my thing but I would think they are more prone to rotting in water than in soil....

    • @mariafolch8067
      @mariafolch8067 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      You may be drowning them. I only expose a small part of the tip and use a small coffee pod which already has a whole on the bottom. I place a stone inside the pod, put the leaf in and place the pod inside a container with water. When I add water to the container, I make sure that only the end of the leaf (around 1/2") is touching the water. So, far it has worked.

    • @mariafolch8067
      @mariafolch8067 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Instead of tape, you can place couple of stones behind the stem. Also, leave/make a hole on the plastic at the edge of the rim to add water.
