How to Propagate a Rubber Plant?

Published in Plant Propagation 1 min read

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:

  1. Take a Cutting: (Implied). Use clean, sharp shears or a knife to take a cutting from a healthy rubber plant.
  2. Place in Water: Put the cutting in a glass or jar filled with water.
  3. Sunny Window: Position the container in a sunny window to provide the cutting with adequate light for root development.
  4. Water Changes: Replace the water every week to keep it fresh and oxygenated, preventing bacterial growth.
  5. Root Development: In a few weeks, you should see roots starting to grow from the cutting.
  6. 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.
