What a great, simple, straightforward video! I found out all I need to know about snake plant cuttings in 5 minutes; how to take them and best way to root! Thank you Adela!!
Wow, that is a very inspiring comment from you Gladimo. Thank you so much, I am more inspired to make more videos in the future. Enjoying watching my other videos too :)
Great video without the hours worth of non essential dialogue, thanks!
Thank you so much Angel for appreciating :)
Thank you for your videos on how to grow new plants from leaves! I am amazed at how well the sand helped the roots form.
Thanks Laura for appreciating my video. :)
Very nicely done video, no loud music very clear which is the better rooting method. Many thanks for sharing & looking forward to you next video.
Thank you Mick, thanks for appreciating and welcome to my channel. Enjoy watching my other videos :)
Just a five minutes video for sansevieria propagation? Looks like miracle😀
nagawa na rin ako ng ganyan.. madali nga syang mag karoon ng roots thru top water.. nice madami ng ngaunn snake plant ang loob ng bahay namin.. thanks
Hi Jhocy, masaya po ako at nakahiligan mo rin mag plant ng snake plants. Thanks for watching my channel, welcome to Adela B :)
Thanks for the video
I learned a lot because i am impatient why the leaves haven’t had root yet and its almost a month in potting soil or water 😆 it takes time.. Now i know thanks
God bless
Hola. Ya me atreví a cotar las hojas. Ahora las tengo en agua veremos haber que sale. Muchisimas gracias por tus videos, y por vuestro esfuerzo.desde Madrid España besos.👍🌹👁🌱🌿🌵🌷🍀🍀🍀
Learned a lot. Sand dust seem to the most effective.
Imma try this with my Bacularis they're somehow related...
Your watering can so cute cute 😊
Thank you Rajesh :)
Adela B where did you get that adorable watering can?
Hi Margaret, I purchased it from garden stores near in our area.

Good idea recycle bottles for pots
That means we shld preapare sand dust soil fr fast grwth👍..thnks for beautifl videos.
Hi, yes, garden soil / sand dust are easily available :)
Really 43 days? Mine had long roots in water and leca in just a week. I dried them for few days after cutting and then rooted them in little water and leca.
Thankyou for that interesting experiment. When I take leaf cuttings, I always start them off in water and wait for the roots to come thru’, then put them in soil.
Thanks Suzanne for sharing your experience in propagating snake plant. :)
Adela B My pleasure, thankyou.

What did you the plant which rotted in the last
Nice video.... Simple but very informative... Good.. keep it up
Thanks always Krishna for your support :)
When propagating leaf or stem cuttings, i use plain ground soil so as to prevent root rot, once they have roots and are stable, i repot them using rich compost, garden soil and aged rice hull, works fine for me.
Hey what about watering them . ?
@@srimalinipriyar4991 i SPRINKLE water once i see the top soil is dry
Thank you so much for showing US the difrence
Thanks too Emily :)
Hello Adela!!! Great video!! Quick question. After you separate the leaves, do you have to let them cure for a couple of days then put them in water? Or just put them in water right after you separate them?
Mario Alejandro Hi! What did you end up doing? I have the same question about letting it callus over first or not 🤷🏻♀️
yes i’d let it callus over first. unless you put it in dry soil and not water it for about a week. i feel like it grows slower in water but i could be wrong.
Very Helpful and informative
Thanks for this tutorial my friend helps a lot
Nice video..... Thank you for this video.....
Thanks too for watching my video Kartik :)
Welcome....
Nice video. I always use water. Simple.
That's great monique, thanks for watching :)
Wen im trying to propogate with water its decaying ..wat maybe the cause
How often are we supposed to change the water ?
@@prahladdwivedi3995 I've heard people forgetting the water for a few weeks or longer and the plants have survived no problem but from what I've been told rule of thumb is just change it when you remember. I'd say every few daysor so. I dont let mine go past a week because the water has oxygen the plants use so replacing the water replenishes its oxygen too.
@@chancemacdonald2046 Thank you.
Nice video
Hi~good luck to you~^^
culture soil snake plant
It's been a week~
Im chang your way of success and try it again 🤗🤗🤗🤗thank you~^^
Hi, thank you that I inspired you through this video. Good luck on your love of plants and journey :)
Muito bom, gostei da idéia de fazer mudas,muito legal.
Obrigado :)
Love these vids!
Спасибо большое за очень полезную информацию!
Спасибо также за просмотр :)
I think if you are going to plan in microbe rich soil you need to let it callus. Otherwise your plant will just pull bacteria up with the water and rot. Seems to me like that's why the potting soil and manure didn't work.
Hi Alex, thank you for your great idea and suggestions. I will consider it :)
Hi Adela! How do you keep the leaf from rotting while propagating in water? I’ve tried several times with just the very bottom in water, but each time, they still seem to just end up rotting.
Hi Lauren, I also experienced propagating in water being rot. Just experiment and try again until you figure out the behavior of this plant in your region :)
@@AdelaBespejo ok thank you!
you can try making a v cut on the bottom,I've heard it reduces risks of rot
@@stuckinthesystem1384 thats not what the v cut is for, its for the roots to be able to grow straight down. to reduce rot you should let the leaf cutting callus, so leave it out for 3 days or so, and then try propagating
@@cherrybeetree Both the reasons are correct. Chances of root rot or high when the whole base is touching the base of the container,and significantly lower when they're not. anyway,goodluck to anyone propogating:)
Hey great video! I found a snake plant my neighbor must have thrown out. Most of the leaves were completely dead except two that appear to be healthy as they are green and firm. No roots just leaves. I cleaned them off properly and will cut them at the bottom of each to ensure a nice fresh sterilized start and try rooting in water, hoping to save them. Do I need to let it sit and callus a few days before placing in water or can put it in right away? Thanks!
Very helpful thank you😊
Thanks too Kerry :)
Hi. Off topic. I don't know much about plants but i love them. I have got these snake plant but the leaf is splitting. Can you advice me what to do please and why is it solitting? I have the indoor plant. Thank you 😊
Hi Lil, what soil type did you use in your snake plant? It would be better if you place the snake plant outside the house to receive sunlight once in a while. Also, avoid overwatering the snake plants :)
@@AdelaBespejo ah ok thank you. I love in a flat on building i can only get sun from the window, would that be enough. Not sure about the soil cause i just baught it 3 weeks ago and it came all in a pot already.
Hi, thanks for your response and sorry for my late reply. Putting the plant beside the window where the sunlight is hitting is good. Regarding with the soil, observe the plant if the soil is good for it, water when the soil is dry. Goodluck :)
Great video! What do you do with them after? Stick in well draining soil and just cross fingers?
Hi Katie, I repotted them in larger pot to produce more baby snake plants to be used in my future videos :)
Great video! 👍🏼 So using a succulent soil and not potting soil for propagation and then planting the newly rooted plant is recommended. Is that correct?
Hi Jackie, I would not personally recommend it because there are many factors that may affect the growth of the plant. Soil is just one of them, these are sunlight, water quality, watering schedule, and more. I would suggest that you try first before you decide what soil to use. But in my experience, which is featured in this video, garden soil is the one that grew faster. :)
By “garden soil” do you mean sand dust?
Did you make holes at the bottom of bottles or not?
Hi Pallavi, yes, I made holes at the bottom of the plastic bottles except the water propagation :)
What happens if we put only 2 inch cutting is ' nt root
nice
Thanks :)
Do we need to chage the water and how often its needed
Hi Hanashiku, yes, the water should be changed every 3 days :)
Very helpful. Thank u😍
Me..encanta
how about the "MONEY PLANT" with the same experiment? what is the best?
Hi Michaela, I will try to make video on money plant :)
Money plant in cocopeat gives fast root growing results
I got roots in a week for money plant using water propagation method.
Madam, which is the best period for propagation of Snake Plant?
Hi Indranil, in this video, I propagated them during the summer season :)
Hi Adele, I just propagated my snake plant with mix soil and compost. I am a beginner and it is my first attempt to plant. Your video shows that end of the leaf is rotten, will it still grow given more time?
I also found success with cocopeat and perlite mix
That's great! Thanks for sharing your experience in propagating :)
@@AdelaBespejo your welcome,i also add a little bit of vermiculite(medium) to maintain a neutral ph,but mostly it is high quality cocopeat with large perlite
so please, what's the best soil (mix) for the snake plant at all not just for rooting to keep plant growing regularly too ??????
Hi Ali, based on my experience, cow dung manure is the best plant to use for the snake plant. I propagated several videos in my channel using this soil :)
@@AdelaBespejo thanks so much 💙💙
Do I need to dry out the cuttings so that they callous over? Or do I propagate them directly?
Amazing video ♥️
Thank you :)
Hiee,loved your effort.
I tried to propagate this plant from cutting in the soil as well as water, but the cuttings start becoming damp and watery from the base and smudge upwards leaving the cuttings to decay, far to talk about rooting. Please help.
Hi Arpita, sorry to hear what happened to your propagation. I also experienced failing in propagating snake plants, you can try it again. These are my tips. Use a mature and good / healthy cuttings. Place in shaded area, water when the soil is dry. Use a soft and well draining potting mix. Goodluck :)
@@AdelaBespejo loads of thanks for the reply ma'am.
Will try that.
Stay safe and stay healthy.
should you change the tap water everyday?
Hi Warren, it is good to change every 3 days to prevent mosquitoes :)
How often did you water those planted in soil?
Dude I had the same issue using potting soil. I think I’ll try the tap water method now
Same!!!! I had like 6 leaves going too and the bottoms all rotted
Hi Phil, yes, it is better to use water as the medium for propagation based on my experieince.
Is sand dust like cactus mix?
Very good
Thanks Atana :)
i dont get it. that sand dust is originally dry like sahara desert for a plant to grow, yet this plant thrive like a bamboo... like, scientifically how?
Hi, I think this is because sand dust is a well draining soil and it is good for snake plants or sansevierias.
No usaste agujeros de drenaje, verdad? Posiblemente el sustrato universal retenga más la humedad y por eso se pudrió la hoja.
Hola Luengo, gracias por compartir tu idea sobre esto. Lo aprecio mucho. :)
Every how many days do we have to water it?
Idk why but my snake plant stopped growing and it's been months since it has not grown I even kept it in full sun so that it could grow but yet no results help me
Hi Arshiya, is suggest that you place the propagated snake plant in shaded area. Also avoid overwatering the plant :)
Potting mix this is why maybe my plant propagation got rot🙁
Yes, make sure to use soft type of soil.
@@AdelaBespejo thanks dear
Very helpful
Do rooting hormone next!
Pls do another vid but use coco peat, spagnum peat, and perlite.
Hi, thanks for your suggestion, I will try my best to use those propagation media :)
How often did you water?
Hi Ima, I water when the soil is dry :)
I did the same thing and all of them got mushy. What did I do wrong?
Hi Parales, there are many possible reasons on that. What soil type did you use? Also, avoid over watering the plant.
Adela B I used the same soil it comes with and another with African violet. I watered lightly. What do you recommend.
Hi Parales, if you are also using pure cow dung, you can place the plant in shaded part of the house :)
do you change the tap water? if yes, how often?
I'm not her but, you should do it once a week.
@@russellperdomo4972 definitely agree
Yes, I change the water every 2 or 3 days :)
Please tell me that will the same process work for dwarf snake plant too?
Hi Pallavisahi, based on my experience, the process is almost the same with other varieties of snake plants. I also made snake plant propagation videos using other varieties. Here are the videos.

Hello dear by how much time taken to grow roots of snake plants actually I keep them in water from last 10 days but roots r not coming
Hi Monty, in this video, it took about 43 days for the roots to appear.
Hi, yes you are right, in our area, there is small amount of clorine being put in water so they still survive.
snake plant in water:often do we need to change the water of it?
Hi Rwin, I changed the water every 3 days to avoid mosquitoes :)
In VietNam, we can find it everywhere. It is easy to find, but only some people know benefit of it.
Hi, thanks for sharing your idea about it. This plant is also popular here in the Philippines :)
How many days did it take before you checked for roots?
I think a month or so
43
It is also how you water it. Each potting mix you used they need different kind of watering frequency. So this is not a fair comparison. I had mine rooted in regular potting soil with %40 perlite and 10 percent coco coir and it rooted in 5 weeks. Under grow lights in winter 24 hrs at 65 watt led full spectrum and a sprinkle of water each day around the roots until it took root. Just enough for the leaf not the whole pot. Once it has roots then you water whole pot.
Hi Jude, In this video comparison, I only used natural soil medium without any mixture. :)
I put it in water my be mor than 3 month and no root or any thing happen??
Hi Momo, may I know the water level you used? Thanks.
@@AdelaBespejo my be cover half of the leavs
Based on my experience, it may be the water level, because it is soaking the half of the leaves. The water should be only touching half an inch to the plant. Only the area where the roots will developed not the entire half of the plant. I hope this will work, thanks momo and good luck, please give us some updates :)
@@AdelaBespejo thank you
After how many days The roots come out on water one?
Hi Ruby, in this video it took 43 days before the roots come out from the leaf cuttings. But this will depend on many factors.
Hi! Three months ago i put into the water few leaves of snake plant, and they developed very nice roots but they also produced baby plants, can you please tell me if it's ok to transfer them now into the soil? Thank you.
Hi, First off, I congratulate you for successfully propagating snake plants and creating new baby snake plants through leaf cuttings. As long as the roots are sturdy and enough, you can transfer to a pot with soil.
Adela B Thank you very much Adela. 🙂
Thanks Smiley, don;t forget to subscribe to see my future videos :)
The Smiley Taste Did you let the cut leaves callus over before placing in water or just put them straight in after cutting? Thanks!!
What is “sand dust” ?
Hi Jeffrey, they are fine type of soil perfect for growing many kinds of plants :)
Sad though, you lose the yellow stripe if you propagate this way
Where does one find sand dust? Thanks!
Hi Trish, some also call this Garden Soil :) It maybe available in the plant shops near you :)
@@AdelaBespejo Thanks, Adela, but I'm still confused. I thought garden soil was basically really good dirt with a few additives. Sand dust? Seems like that would be the finest of sand grains.
I didnt expect the result. I thought sand dust is not good for plants
Hi Drex, as you can see, the garden soil / sand dust is one of the best soil to use but this is based on my experience :)
What was your watering schedule? Did you water lightly daily?
Hi, I just water them when the soil is dry :)
What water shoul we use
Mineral water or normal water
Hi Bun, in this video, I only used tap water :)
I think I am going to use the sand dusk soil.
Hi, yes this is also called Garden soil :)
garden soil it is...
The new plants would ( probably) not have the yellow leaf margins !
Does Sand dust means garden soil??
Hi Sarath, it is a very fine clay like soil mostly used in gardening :)
@@AdelaBespejo thanku adela
What is sand dust?
What time root come out
Hi Babita, it took 43 days for the roots to appear :)
Hi adela, thank you for sharing, i will try to make one and poat it to my channel hope you can watch and like it. Thanks.
Thanks Amboy, thanks for supporting my channel kabayan :)
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻❤️❤️😘
Thanks :)
San po kau nakabili ng sand dust soil?
Hi Lex, puede rin po ang garden soil same po sila :)
May nabibili bang sand dust sa mga garden shops? Pareho ba ito ng river sand?
Could you tell me, why i folllow you, i put it in water like you, this leaf died, it did not grow the root, thanks a lot
Hi Phuong, that is sad to hear. Make sure that the water is just touching the bottom tip part of the plant.
HEY phuong pham! Your rude😡🤚
Hello po. May nabili po akong soil mix, meron po syang palay at medyo matapang yung amoy ng chemical. Pwede po ba yun gamitin ng pure lang or kailangan pong ihalo sya sa ibang lupa? Salamat po
Maine 13July ko cutting lagaya abhi tak root ka koi pata nhi hai......
San dust means only sand....
I also have a snakeplant!
Hi Sahil, that's great! You can propagate it too just like what I did in this video :)
Vry NYC mam
How much time it requires to give roots
Hi Qasim, in this video, it took 43 days for the roots to appear :)
@@AdelaBespejo thank u so much. After 43 days can I put it under the soil
Water 💦 won!
:)
Sand dust means black soil?
Hi Vishal, Sand dust means Garden Soil. :)
@@AdelaBespejo
U mean red soil??
Brown and very fine soil :) You can watch the video here if you wish to see the quality of the soil :) th-cam.com/video/WuJfjDNJvuY/w-d-xo.html
@@srikanthsrikanth2735 That's neither garden soil or sand dust, he has no idea what that is just throwing words
Now u try cocopeat
Hi Saani, yes I will try comparison videos using cocopeat and other medium of soil :)
Hmm

Thanks Fatiha :)
