About Propagate How-To

Propagate How-To publishes indoor houseplant propagation guides for people doing this at home. The plant list lives on plant propagation. Method overviews are water propagation, soil propagation, and air layering.

How the guides are written

Propagate How-To editors write the pages.

A guide names numbers you can use at a sink or a window: how many nodes, how often to change the water, how long roots should be before you pot, pot size in inches, mix, how far a light sits, and typical US prices for a jar, a pot, and mix. Those figures are for a home.

What we skip

Patented or PPAF cultivars. Foraging and plant ID in the wild. Psychedelic plants. Outdoor landscaping. Ponds. Medical or toxicity treatment. If a plant is unsafe to ingest or handle for pets or people, talk to a veterinarian or a physician. Do not use this site for that.

Where to start

Open plant propagation. If you buy through links on the site, the affiliate disclosure explains how that works.
