Hi everybody, so I got a request to show how to cut your string of turtles for water propagation. This works for string of turtles in any of your string varieties, string of pearls, and I also have done it with the string of dolphins. So first you want to have a little vessel with some water that you're going to put your cutting into. Also obviously you need some scissors or shears, whatever you use. And I like to use one of the longer vines. So let me just look and check and make sure that this is the one that I want to cut. I hate to lose too many turtle pieces, so I try to be specific. Let's see. I don't want that one. This one is really cute. I don't know. It's so hard to pick which one to cut for these things. Okay. How about, yeah, let's do this one. So you're going to go ahead and cut this them. All right. And that leaves you with this piece right here. Now you're going to lose a couple of turtles. So hold your breath. But that's okay. So I took off those and you can take these. I've seen people, I've never done it successfully, but I've seen people who take just these little guys right here and put them on top of soil or put them on top of spangom and try to root them that way. So that could be a nice little experiment for you. So you don't feel like, you know, all is lost with those. So now I'm taking those off and you see I have this exposed stem right here. So you're going to take that part. You're going to get that little container of water that you had and you're going to stick that right down in there. And there you have it. It's okay. This one leaf is kind of in there. I'll dump a little of the water off to bring it down here and then you just put it in a bright spot. I have some in bright spots. I have some that are further away from the window. They all, they all do fine, but just pop it in a bright spot or whatever. And then there you go. It'll root. You want to keep check on the water. Because I've had a little of the stem will start to rot. So if you're checking the water regularly, you can catch that and then you can just like snip that little piece off. But yep, that's how you do it. And there you can also propagate with soil. You basically do the same thing. You cut a strand like I just did, but you don't need to clear any leaves off of the cutting for that. You lay it on top of the soil. I have a video on my YouTube where I propagated my string of turtles and my hollyeneers. So if you want a visual of that, you can head over there and check that out. Thanks for watching guys.
