Thank you for showing the progression. I’m so tired of propagation videos that don’t show the results. I know it’s more of a commitment to document the whole journey but it is appreciated.
I use the butterfly method to propagate soooo many string of hearts and string of arrows nodes/leaves..but I get the cheap 8 for a dollar clear plastic shower caps at the dollar tree and pop them on the top of my pots put them under lights and mine are now sooo full and growing huge leaves. It totally works! Good job. :-)
Yes finally a propagation progress video. Love how you showed how to do this method and it's progress. I've only seen this method done in moss so I'm glad to know it can work in soil too. Can't wait to try this!
Yessss to full bowl of variegated string of hearts!!! 😍🥰 also thank you for doing progress updates too it's so cool seeing how much a plant has grown. Would be really cool if you did an update on it again in a few months but no pressure ofc! Great job :)
Hi Erika! where did you get the tiny lovely pot? I love this kind of videos with the updates. ;) Are you planning on doing another VSOH giveaway? hehehehe Thank you :D
Great video as always! Great job on those! It's such a pretty plant to begin with, with its chunky little pink and white leaves.💗🌿🌺🌱 I prefer the full look also. I did something similar with two of my variegated SOH, now I have 4 full healthy looking plants.
I just got a SOH plug and need to pot it up any suggestions on a good soil mix to use I want my baby to thrive! Thanks! Great to see the progress of these tiny plants!
Thank you for making this video and showing the progress! I recently purchased SOH off Etsy (so it’s very small) and I’ve been considering propagating to make them bigger and fuller!
Love the clear demo. Really clear and well presented. So satisfying to see the progress, and the little heart leaves popping out is the most precious thing ever🥰
Hi Erika! Your video made me do butterfly cuttings. I have 3 big full pots. Thank you for your video. Do you have any update on your propagation? I hope you make another video of the further update. Thank you.
I feel like when I do this it never works but I never tried the bag method!!! Such a great idea. I’m so happy to see this video and the results added along with the explanation on what week it was.!! Love love love 💗
This potting of cutting was great I am glad they are doing so well, When I do cuttings I water the soil before I put the cuttings as I use rooting gel. I am glad to see you're getting use out of those pots makes me happy. Great video.
Thanks so much for sharing I was just about to propagate some. I love your videos by the way, they are very informative. I wanted to know how often do you air them out? Does it really matter? I new to propagating in a bag. Thanks 😊
Maybe it needs more fertilizer? Also maybe it could be root bound? The best lighting for a Vsop is southern, western, and some direct eastern exposure.
You definitely have some patience there. I opened mine every day at the beginning because I was afraid of mold and to also mist it. I'm going to try to keep mine in the bag and not open it for at least a week. I noticed in some pots, I had a lot of leaves rot (mostly the all white leaves).
Trust me if it needed to be watered often I would have forgotten & they would be dead lol, so it’s not patience 😅 try not to mist them, that’s probably what’s causing the leaves to rot. You’re a very attentive plant mama 💚
@@ErikaLodes I'm going to change my ways and leave them alone. I need to be less attentive. Haha! I too, placed my props into a terra cotta pot- I found a heart shaped one! th-cam.com/video/QHB1EcUVqaQ/w-d-xo.html
So does anyone know when they start trailing? I have one stem that is growing out about 5 sets of leaves but it is growing out and up. Was just wondering if anyone knew the answer/had experience with them. I've been watching 100 videos already lol
i got a string of hearts(a really long mature one with massive leaves) a while ago and it was really tangled and i’ve been slowly untangling but during the processes a lot of reeeally long vines have fallen off and i’ve been propagating the vines in water and i’ve been having really slow results and now i wanna do this so bad!!! it looks incredible and i love the full pot
Please help...my variegated string of heart.. water propagation is rotting...I give it enough light and also change the water every day...but the nod is still rotting 😞
If you look at the center of the dirt at 2:23 you can see a tiny little dirt mite or springtail get all confused and run around LOL I don't know- thats very amusing to me.
Is that pot made out of terracotta? My propagation is in a terracotta pot and I feel like my humidity dome doesn’t have as much condensation (if any at all)
I absolutely love these type of videos thank you for sharing and I'm glad to know I'm not the only one that goes a little crazy when I see little babies growing. I don't know if you have an updated video on these little fellas but I sure would like to see one if you do have one available. Thanks again
I had no idea you could propagate with just a couple leaves! I'm gonna propagate mine like crazy tonight! I'm so excited! would this method work with String of Turtles too? Thanks so much for this awesome video :)
It should! I keep mine in an empty starbies cup bc without the humidity they just don’t grow at all 🥵 but w all that humidity they have sooooo many roots growing crazy everywhere, so I think it would work super well.
My varigated SOH is in water and somewhat rooted. It is growing so slow. Wanted to put in a propagation tub but I bought it as 1 node with 4 leaves. I am so scared I might kill it. Thanks for the great videos!
I'm such a "freshman" at succulents..... What was purpose of plastic bag? PS. Those chips make the overall weight much greater in the very end. I wish we could shop for soil the way we do for grapes, etc. 🤣
Hey so i live in a tropical climate, and it's really hard to keep the variegated SOH alive. So one string was dying and I decided the propagate the healthier nodes. Do you think I need to use the bag to accentuate moisture in my climate?
I find that variegated string of heart is harder to care for then the normal kind. They can rot and get squishy really easily. I've tried to propergate many times but not many success. The plastic zip lock bag helped alot ! And had alot of new growth but then eventually rot.
i did 2 pots last night, they are both 9cm but for now is oke, i had them growing but i didnt like the way they were growing, so i cut them in small sections and put them in soil :3 i have now 4 pots of string of hearts xD hahaha i love them
Hey erika, so I followed everything you did and it's been a success. I am in Australia so I did this in the middle of winter and it worked! I couldn't believe how easy it was. Thank you for sharing!
if you cover the top of your soil with a thin layer of peat moss or seed starter mix you can get much better ground contact with your cuttings despite having a chunkier soil mix
Here’s the update 🥲

Hi, whats your soil mix for the string of hearts? Thanks!
@@blue-sb4wq I keep trying to look in the comments if she replied to anyone yet and i still can't find it ): #bigsad

Beautiful! Can you update us on the progress of these plants? Would love to see how they look now. :)
Your latest content and schedule has been 👌. Love your channel!
Thank you so much!! 🥰
Arrested development is amazing, Lucille Bluth will be forever missed RIP

How often do you water it when you’re propping?
Hey erika, what potting mix did you use for this?
Would love an update too x
i want to know too
Beautiful! Great job! I have a regular SOH and a variegated SOH is high on my wish list.
Hi Erika! where did you get the tiny lovely pot?
I love this kind of videos with the updates. ;)
Are you planning on doing another VSOH giveaway? hehehehe
Thank you :D
That full bowl is the cutest thing ever🥺
Ugh when it starts trailing 😭💚
Great video as always! Great job on those! It's such a pretty plant to begin with, with its chunky little pink and white leaves.💗🌿🌺🌱 I prefer the full look also. I did something similar with two of my variegated SOH, now I have 4 full healthy looking plants.
This was so pretty! Can’t wait to have a full plant like this 😍
What soil mix do you use? And I’ve tried this method but my cuttings all died 😭 but again it was winter lol so I kind of want to try it again!
A bowl of heart shaped cereal 😂❤️love that!!
I just got a SOH plug and need to pot it up any suggestions on a good soil mix to use I want my baby to thrive! Thanks! Great to see the progress of these tiny plants!
Brb gonna cut up my VSOHs again ✂️🏃🏽♀️💨
May I ask what soil did you use? I didn't find any solid answer for the type of soil for VSOH, will cactus soil work ? Thanks
Thank you for making this video and showing the progress! I recently purchased SOH off Etsy (so it’s very small) and I’ve been considering propagating to make them bigger and fuller!
Yesss 👏🏼👏🏼 we love a luscious planta
This is the best propogation video I have seen on TH-cam, you are amazing❤
❤️ the hair plug reference. After you said it i was like she’s unwrapping a comb over! 🤣🤣🤣
Omg I just rewatched arrested development and I’m screaming because Tobias really had me dying with the hair plugs😂😂😂.
What do you use for soil mixing?
Love the clear demo. Really clear and well presented. So satisfying to see the progress, and the little heart leaves popping out is the most precious thing ever🥰
I did not know those fuzzy white lines Where roots 😝 I removed mine thought it was a fungal growth lmao
It is funny that you used the hair transplant analogy to the butterfly method, gave me a good chuckle. The progress looks soooo great!
I love it! How often did you spray/water the plant?
Hi Erika! Your video made me do butterfly cuttings. I have 3 big full pots. Thank you for your video. Do you have any update on your propagation? I hope you make another video of the further update. Thank you.
Good to know those are roots! I’m proping a string right now and I wasn’t sure if that was root or fungus 😂 I assumed roots and left it thankfully
I feel like when I do this it never works but I never tried the bag method!!! Such a great idea. I’m so happy to see this video and the results added along with the explanation on what week it was.!! Love love love 💗
This potting of cutting was great I am glad they are doing so well, When I do cuttings I water the soil before I put the cuttings as I use rooting gel. I am glad to see you're getting use out of those pots makes me happy. Great video.
Soak your terra cotta pot for a half hour or so before doing your potting. 😊
Any update on this? 👏😌
Thanks so much for sharing I was just about to propagate some. I love your videos by the way, they are very informative. I wanted to know how often do you air them out? Does it really matter? I new to propagating in a bag. Thanks 😊
Why doesnt my VSOH grow??? :( gets plenty of light and water as needed..
Maybe it needs more fertilizer? Also maybe it could be root bound? The best lighting for a Vsop is southern, western, and some direct eastern exposure.
I would literally die cutting it up like that 😩😭🤣 it's so cute !
I also did that butterfly propagation and it's successful. Watching from Calgary Canada
I also prefer them more bushy rather than trailing.
love this. im hoping to find a string of hearts or turtles soon
I'm the happiest when I saw your new post featuring the variegated soh :)
i like your mouth the way you talking. ha ha don`t mind i like your all videos and all plants thank you very much for sharing with us you`r experience
I have a little 2 inch 2 node plant right now🥺 your bowl was the greatest idea! So cuteb
saw a bug in the soil after your first scoop transfer.. could have been a harmless springtail...
I need to get more VSOH, I had some that were given to me when I first got into plants but they died because I didn't know what they were. 😭
Love it!!! I have the tiniest but long plant! (Regular not variegated). Once I get the perfect pot I’m going to do it this way for sure!!
You definitely have some patience there. I opened mine every day at the beginning because I was afraid of mold and to also mist it. I'm going to try to keep mine in the bag and not open it for at least a week. I noticed in some pots, I had a lot of leaves rot (mostly the all white leaves).

What type of soil did you use for this?(:

I just repotted my VSOH a few days ago too! from 6 to 7 in pot, they were so root bounded!
Congratulations Erika, it’s going to be stunning someday!💚🙃
I would LOVE to know your soil mix for string of hearts❤
Loved this video! I’m obsessed with variegated string of hearts!

what are you doing with the moho?, is dangerous to the plant? thank u!

Saludos 👍😍
How to you make yours to have white rim leaves? Thanks
Why do you put Saran Wrap around the bowl?
Wow that is really easy...now I know how....thanks for showing up to us how it really works..soooooo beautiful 💚🍀🌿☘️🌱🪴
where did you get that bookcase behind you?.
Wow that is not even fair! Almost all of mine rotted.
When did you stop putting the propagation in the bag?
I'm such a "freshman" at succulents..... What was purpose of plastic bag?
PS. Those chips make the overall weight much greater in the very end.
I wish we could shop for soil the way we do for grapes, etc. 🤣
Mist with hydrogen peroxide to get rid of mold.
In what season did you do this propagation please
Can you propagate without the plastic wrap tho?
I do that same way lol. Most of my plants can do that.
Hey so i live in a tropical climate, and it's really hard to keep the variegated SOH alive. So one string was dying and I decided the propagate the healthier nodes. Do you think I need to use the bag to accentuate moisture in my climate?
I can't for the life of me get mine to cooperate....

Results + Decisions
So your string of hearts will be a pot of ♥️.
Bravo 👏 I do enjoy your videos 🤓

How often did you water it? Hi
@@Angelskris333 I didn't water it at all. I watered it once in the beginning then put it into a box and left it.
@@gracehc9356 great! Thank you
Do you have to put air inside the bag?
Liked that you show the progression
Girl.. I need an update on your monstera albo. Mine hasn’t been growing much and it’s making me super nervous 😣
if you cover the top of your soil with a thin layer of peat moss or seed starter mix you can get much better ground contact with your cuttings despite having a chunkier soil mix
Erika where did you get them ? I’ve been looking for them here in ventura county but I have no success
what happened to the mother plan after you cut it for propagation? I'm afraid to cut as i only have 3 strands
Do you just place them on top of the soil? Or do I need to press them gently to the soil?
Hii! How ofter do you water them? I’m scared if i water too much they will turn to mush and if too little they will dry out :(
The progression was really interesting. I learned a lot from your video. Thanks.
So beautiful I love them I’ve Ben looking for some of those but no luck Ur lucky wish I could buy some of them
2:21 you might have pest issues. I can't tell if that is a good or bad bug middle of the bowl.
Hi. Do you mist it ? If so how often?
This is a new method of propagation for me, I'll try it thanks.
