I'm tempted to try propagating my plants, but scared of messing it up. Anyone have a good beginner-friendly propagation success story to inspire me?

Which kind of plants are you propagating

I propagated dozens of lavender plants for my yard. It was pretty easy.

I have so much lavender in my yard now that it just naturally propagates from seed. The plants get probably 3 feet high and wide.

Honestly any plant you put in water should be fine… also no need to be scared, plants die and that’s ok.

If you’re taking a cutting of a soft stem, rooting powder is your friend and keep things moist. If you’re take a cutting of a woody stem, YouTube videos for how to air layer. Something inbetween like a thick/mature monstera can work with both methods.

Why do recruiters never tell you which agency they want to talk to you about until they get you on the phone?

How do you handle people’s kids showing up on video meetings? Screaming, kicking, hamming it up, (wasting time.) Everyone else is coo-ing…I’m not a kids person.

Thoughts?

Hello folks, I’m after some advice please. I recently bought a couple of indoor plants and added to the cart what I think is a very expensive bottle of natural mist to use on the leaves. All organic, glass bottle etc. supposed to use it 2-3 times per week but 2 weeks in I’m down to half a bottle and it was £15 (approx $20). I understand that I need to nurture the plants but it strikes me as a rather expensive mist. Is there anything you’d recommend I can use instead? Thanks.
