I’d say it’s worth the wait if you’re propagating on a large scale and with Haworthia that don’t offset as much or as often and with variegated, rarer types etc. With how prolific many Haworthia are with offsetting I think it’s better to wait for it to produce those. Haworthia limifolia can produce many offsets within a year. Very interesting to see though and I admire your dedication and patience with showing this process. 👍
It is worth the wait. Thank you for taking the time to make this video over a series of months. Most people don't make videos like this and I am grateful for your hard work and planning and organization. I just took four leaves this week and put them in dry soil *hoping* something might come of it. I am excited to see how they do over time and it's helpful to know how long I may have to wait before seeing any progress.
Absolutely it's worth the wait. Besides propagation is all about patience and performing the correct technique. Thank you for taking the time to visually show the proper way of removing a leaf from the mother plant. It explains why I was never successful.
I found this experiment oddly satisfying! I am potting my pups from my mother plants today. I was curious if leaf propagation is possible. Thank you sharing your experiment. I’m definitely doing it, it’s worth the wait. I’ll do it at a large scale so l can enjoy the leaf race hahah!. Wish me luck y’all 🙌🏾
It's worth the wait! But the variegation in the pup's leaf is maintained, unlike the snake plant where variegation disappears in the pup after leaf propagation. That's really great.
Thank you for your observation. About the variegation, I will have to try a variegated version of this soon. I will upload here when it's done but it may take a while
Perfect video for what I was looking for and nicely documented. Agree with another poster's recommendation to include your growing conditions and media composition in the future. Nice job and thank you!
yes it's a long wait but why not! Put them in the corner and let them grow! Thank you for a great video, very informative and detailed. Keep up the great work! You are teaching good knowledge for people to know! Gardening is one of the most important gifts to give. Bless you.
Someone gave me plants like this last year, but I've never tried to propagate any of them. I know how to now, thanks to this channel.👍🏽 They seem to take as long as snake plants to propagate.
Hello 👋🏼. I have many Haworthia’s and have been overgrown. And I have been scared of propagating them. I did not know how. I am happy i found your video! It was very informative and helpful. Especially when cutting each leave. Thank you 😊 for sharing! Stay Safe! Stay Well! I cannot wait to see how I do. 🌵🌱🙌🏼. 💚.
I have a 6 year old Haworthia that started as a $1.99 1-inch plant at a grocery store they get REALLY big and hearty how long do these topically live? and how do you know when they need water? ... I've been guessing all these years
nice video. I was just wondering that haworthia llimifolia eaves grows this way or not and I came across your video. will surely try. What's those yellow balls in your soil?
If you had laid the leaf flat in the soil, would you have had seen faster growth? Diminishing some of the time it took the roots to push new growth out?
Hey nice video my zebra plant is getting dried after reporting though watering frequently top leaves I feel r dried and lower leafs r bit yellowish how should I perk up top leaves?
Hey I lost a Haworthia due to too much watering I am trying yo save her bt replanting her leafs..can I replant them all in one pot? Make sure its dry? I dont mind waiting the leaves are still beautiful its just the root lost it from center I am gonna just replant the leaves and leave them maybe someday they ll show some roots
I'm doing this with 3 leaves of an Aloe Aculeata that was etiolated/elongated. It's been 3 months and nothing happened yet. Neither came pups nor did the leaf rot. I am afraid to dig up and ruin the root growth process. Does it have chances of propagation of Aloe aculeata this way?
Hi Luiz Antonio, thank you for always supporting this channel and for watching our videos :) I haven't tried Aloe Aculeata yet. May it would be great if you could update us on your progress? It could still grow slowly, but if the leaves did not wilt then there's still a chance it will succeed
I am propagating ficus Elastica at the moment and it's so slow. Is it worth waiting for Haworthia? I don't know. I have few offshoots I am trying to get to root. I'll stick to that plan.
Great video! Thank you for having the patience to shoot updates over 9 months. Is it ok to put the mother plant back in its pot right away, or do you need to let the cut parts dry out before repotting it?
Agave family is notorious in not producing babies from leaves....Once my agave leaf rests in soil for around 3 months and looks so much healthy but one more thing i myself believes that if the same experiment has done in some tropical area the time comsumption can be a bit less.....One more succulent is there called as echeveria imbricata or rose cabage..It used to produce a small baby or some roots on the tip of the leaf and then rots...
I have seen other videos with aloe where they Cut of the leaf, and wait a few days so it forms a film over the Cut, and it still seems to work propagating it, why is this?
Hi Sheryl thanks for watching. It might speedup and save a few weeks but i havent tried it in haworthia. I might do an experiment on this... hope you enjoy our new videos too!
This is great, that you took the time to do this and to show the LONG process of propagation! I think if you have a spare windowsill somewhere, why not? But I think my plant is actually Tulista Pumila. I carefully broke some pups out today, if I dry them well and then plant, will they root faster than this?
Hello, can someone help me to save my plant? Actually I placed it near wash basin, it is backside of my home, so today morning I was shocked to see, somebody dropped something on it, and my plant is flat, all leaves are separated from center, how to save it? Please guide me as soon as possible 🙏
I found a variegated Haworthia but the variegation is only on two leaves, should I try to propagate them or leave them and wait to see if a pup comes out variegated? It is a Haworthia Cuspada
Hi Jessica, thanks for watching! I would wait until a pup comes out variegated. Because the variegation is not that developed, there's a small chance it will produce variegated plants unless it's in their lineage. Leaf propagation is also hard to do on Haworthias. Beheading or separation is the best method for haworthias in my experience. I'm not talking about other's method though :)
Hi there! which month is the best to start to propagate haworthia by leaves here in the Philippines? does it need a hot climate to germinate fast and to grow some roots immediately? thanks for your answer! :)
It's worth. I'm trying to propagate by placing them above the water bowl by placing them in plastic wrap, will it propagate anyone advice please. Thanks in advance
Hi Dottie, thanks for watching and for the comment! It may only go dormant for few months, but this one is more than a year! So I think dormancy might play a little role but this really takes too slow to grow on leaves :)
Not, please don't loose passion. This is a proof that is best propagated by shoots, let them produce babies naturally! It's faster when you have a mother plant than to use leaves on this variety alone. Other varieties can produce a lot faster
A prolonged wait ..propagation by leaves..instead switch to pups propagation...and that too will take a long to shape as nice piece.. I am waiting for my pups to grow from the last 10..12 months..but they are progressing...
a succulent addict here, too. especially haworthias.

Thank you very much for the compliment :)
I can't thank you enough for this video. Please keep updating with flowering, new babies, death of the leaf propagated. Again, thank you!
This is an extremely valuable method for propagation of rare, endangered and slow to reproduce species.
Success! I grew a whole new plant from a cutting while watching this video!
wow! congrats! thank you for watching :)

Thanks! I've only been waiting for two months, I though nothing would happen now, but I guess I have a long wait ahead of me still!
Thanks for this video Was so hard to find information on leaf propagation!
Quick question - do you do the water using the soak & dry method while trying to grow this way?
So. Today is my second day sooo I have to wait 9 months more hahaha, That so cool! I can't wait for it! 🔥💗
Any progress¿
Lol! 🤣🤣🤣
Any progress??
Today is the day, how's going on
Maybe didn’t go well
Awesome! Thank you for your patience.
Amazing patience.
Yes it was!
Interesting video! I am curious to know how frequently you watered, how much light they were given, and what soil you used.
I regularly mist them to keep the soil moist. Partial light is given to them. Regular soil is used.
I have a 6 year old Haworthia that started as a $1.99 1-inch plant at a grocery store
they get REALLY big and hearty
how long do these topically live?
and how do you know when they need water? ... I've been guessing all these years
Yes, worth it. They r so beautiful and delicate...any amount of time is worth the effort and time.
I agree :)
thank you so much for this video!! of all the videos that ive watched yours is the only one that clearly and really showed how to take a leaf
I'm so glad!
Thank you very very much for this!! i have to try it. Can you please tell me how to propagate from seeds?
Very cool to know its possible and how to do it. Im wondering if freer, sandirer mix with a bit of bottom heat or rooting hormone would speed it up?.
This plant really takes as long to make a baby as a human being. Talk about slow growing!
❤️
But in another video i saw them rooted after 6 months
@@farzanaroshan983 i think he doesn’t mean literally but 6 months is also a long time
Where did you kept it for 9 months in semished or in sunlight
Hi there, should we give indirect or direct light to these leaf cuttings?
Indirect light for all propagation I would suggest
Haworthia (Zebra), black and green prince are my most favorite succulents
nice video. I was just wondering that haworthia llimifolia eaves grows this way or not and I came across your video. will surely try. What's those yellow balls in your soil?
those are slow release fertilizers :) thanks for watching!
Well thats informative,,, now i know it takes time,, coz im trying to propagate too.. from leaf as well.
It's worth waiting. All You have is to have pashing. Well done.
:)
justo el video que estaba buscando que lindo saber que se puede realizar no importa cuanto dure
My haworthia cooperi produced buds from leaf in about 2 months
Thank you! Wish me luck. I have an unhappy Haworthia limifolia var. striata.
Wow that’s amazing howto see how you propagate howarthea
Hi. What type of Haworthia is that?
Can you help me why I m getting my sensiviera fasciata leaves always rotting. I m using only water no rooting hormones
Water less frequent :)
I have this variegated haworthia, and i just started this kind of method, i hope it will root..
What growing media used for leaf growth?
How often do you water the leaves after they calloused? Daily?
If you had laid the leaf flat in the soil, would you have had seen faster growth? Diminishing some of the time it took the roots to push new growth out?
it will still be the same :)
Worth it 🙌👏
Hi! I loved the video! Did you keep daily watering with a spray bottle? What about the soil, did you mix it with sand and fertilizer?
What soil did you used
You wait for nine months... Wao really appreciate your effort for the video 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏👏
Hey nice video my zebra plant is getting dried after reporting though watering frequently top leaves I feel r dried and lower leafs r bit yellowish how should I perk up top leaves?
if you water frequently and the bottom part is yellowish, please look closely, you might see your zebra rot because of overwatering...
@@succulentsforbeginners ok i ll check. Will u suggest any tip for root rot? Please🙏

What is the propagating soil mix?
I have seen other videos with aloe where they Cut of the leaf, and wait a few days so it forms a film over the Cut, and it still seems to work propagating it, why is this?
This is not an Aloe but a Haworthia limifolia. Somewhat different.
Blackheathenly ik, just wondering
this video was very helpful and informative thank you and also well done for waiting so long
thanks! glad you watched it :)
If I fertilize it, will it grow faster. Same thing with rooting hormone, will it help the roots to sprout faster?
Might help a little, I have tried both but I see almost no difference
What soil do you use ☺
Can you use root hormone gel to speed up the propagation of Haworthia plant leaves ?
Hi Sheryl thanks for watching. It might speedup and save a few weeks but i havent tried it in haworthia. I might do an experiment on this... hope you enjoy our new videos too!
This is great, that you took the time to do this and to show the LONG process of propagation! I think if you have a spare windowsill somewhere, why not? But I think my plant is actually Tulista Pumila. I carefully broke some pups out today, if I dry them well and then plant, will they root faster than this?
Hi Nicole Sudhoff, thank you for watching! I'm not sure which is faster but I might make a future video on that too, great idea :)
I'm late but yeah, pups will grow faster than the ones from leaves.
How much should we water and what intervals ? please reply
Water until it drips down the bottom hole. Interval depends, water only if the soil is totally dry like 1 to 2 weeks interval
Maybe you need use eggs powder and banana juice as a substrate. I will try with rice water.
You have too much patience... 👌👌
:) Yep!
Thank you for sharing this with us. how to water the leaves? Quantity and frequency? Pls let me know. Tks
I am working on this video... will post as soon as its done :)
Is it bad to water right after prop in new soil?
It's best to air dry first before watering. But some plants can tolerate watering after prop though
Oh, it takes too long to have baby plants. How often we should water it during the process ?
Hello, can someone help me to save my plant? Actually I placed it near wash basin, it is backside of my home, so today morning I was shocked to see, somebody dropped something on it, and my plant is flat, all leaves are separated from center, how to save it? Please guide me as soon as possible 🙏
*I would propagate the leaves. But I'm probably way too late 💔 I saw your message for the first time today*
great video! how often do you water the propagated leaves and babies?
It depends on the weather, I just keep them moist
Do u use rooting hormones
Yes I do
kitne saal ke haworthia se pup ki umeed kar sakta hai??

What's the progress?
Hi Facundo, thanks for asking. I forgot that I need to update this series :)
Nice video thanks for sharing
Mine always shrivel up brown after 2 weeks... tips?
After 24 to 48 hours, the leaf is callused. After that keep it moist to encourage rooting. Or a rooting hormone can help to root faster :)
Good job bro...👍
Hi there! which month is the best to start to propagate haworthia by leaves here in the Philippines? does it need a hot climate to germinate fast and to grow some roots immediately? thanks for your answer! :)
for tropical countries, any month of the year :)
Can propagate the leaf in the water too?
Yes, but it's best to propagate in soil :)
Good 🙏
So long to wait. But it is worth it if you grow more leaf!
Use rooting hormone.
It's worth. I'm trying to propagate by placing them above the water bowl by placing them in plastic wrap, will it propagate anyone advice please. Thanks in advance
Yes, it will :)
Do you think it was during its dormant stage?
Hi Dottie, thanks for watching and for the comment! It may only go dormant for few months, but this one is more than a year! So I think dormancy might play a little role but this really takes too slow to grow on leaves :)
I planted the leaves in wet soil instead of dry. Would it cause to rotten ? I did it today before I found this video 😞
If it has formed callus it will not rot. :)
Wow I thought you got wrong mentioned the week but that's real 9 mothhs hopefully I'm not losing the passion or forget about the flower that I HV 😅
Not, please don't loose passion. This is a proof that is best propagated by shoots, let them produce babies naturally! It's faster when you have a mother plant than to use leaves on this variety alone. Other varieties can produce a lot faster
