Should I wait a bit longer....

..before potting up. Thank you.


I know that Snake Plants are supposed to be virtually indestructible but both of ours, that we'd had for quite a while, began going soggy and eventually died completely back in the late Spring. Someone else who we know had the exact same thing too.
I made several attempts at propagating a leaf all but this one went soggy too. This one looks and feels normal but do the roots need to develop further ( in water) before potting up. Ta for any advice.

 

I'd pot it up now, but keep a close eye on the watering, too little is better than too much.
A good open gritty compost that dries out fast.

I used to play around with these and you can get totally green plants by using leaf cuttings further up the leaf.

The yellow edge is, I think, something that comes from the rootstock, so division is better if you want to maintain it.

 

I agree with @pete, pot it up now into a gritty compost, and water very sparingly. I have grown them in the past from leaf sections pushed straight into the compost.

 

Thank you @pete and @Michael Hewett for getting back to me. Greatly value your advice.
Can I use just ordinary MPS with added grit.?

 

You can but add 50%, I tend to use soil based but if you dont overwater they will grow in anything really with the occasional feed.

 

Ok thanks pete...I'll tackle it tomorrow.

I'll leave you in peace to continue in your recovery now.
