How to root the goldfish spider plant in water (with illustrations of the cutting method)

1. Select branches

There is no strict time limit for growing goldfish spider plants in water, and it can be done all year round. Choose a healthy, sturdy branch from the mother plant. The fuller the leaves, the better. Use a sterilized knife to cut it, preferably in one cut, so that the cut is less damaged, which is conducive to better root germination.

2. Processing branches

After cutting the branches, you cannot directly use them for cuttings. Cut off the leaves on the lower part of the branches and only need a few leaves on the top. Then place it in a cool and ventilated place, and wait until the cut surface is dry before water insertion.

3. Prepare the bottle

You can use mineral water bottles or transparent glass bottles for water insertion, otherwise it will be difficult to see the rooting status of the branches. Fill no more than 2/3 of the bottle with water. Make sure to use clean water. If there are bacteria in the water, it will directly harm the cut of the branches and prevent new roots from growing.

4. Water cutting rooting

After processing the branches, just put them in the bottle of water. After the water insertion is completed, it is best to place it in a ventilated location and check the rooting of the branches in time. Small roots will grow in less than a month.
