You can propagate a rubber plant by taking cuttings and rooting them in water.
Here's a breakdown of the water propagation method based on the provided video snippet:
- Take a Cutting: (Implied). Use clean, sharp shears or a knife to take a cutting from a healthy rubber plant.
- Place in Water: Put the cutting in a glass or jar filled with water.
- Sunny Window: Position the container in a sunny window to provide the cutting with adequate light for root development.
- Water Changes: Replace the water every week to keep it fresh and oxygenated, preventing bacterial growth.
- Root Development: In a few weeks, you should see roots starting to grow from the cutting.
- Planting in Soil: Once the roots are sufficiently developed, the cutting is ready to be planted in soil.
This method allows you to easily observe the root growth and provides a simple way to propagate your rubber plant.
