How To Propagate Watermelon Peperomia in a clear and concise video. You will see how to propagate, and what to expect during the process, how to re pot them, and then what they look like a month after they have been re potted.

I appreciate that you waited for the entire process of propagation to finish before you uploaded this video, seeing the progress and what it should look like really helps.
I think the method is a success, the trick is to plant them in the final pot intended for them and water carefully, to avoid damaging them during the transplanting process. Thank you so much for sharing.
I recently water propagated my pepperomia. Keep the mother leaf OUT of the water above the surface and just the stem in the water. Switch the water out every week. I kept them in the windowsill. In less than 2 months, each cutting had 2-3 inches of dense roots and about 6-7 mini new leaves coming off around the base. Transplanted to soil recently and spraying them with water everyday!
I had seen in another video that if you do want to propagate with water then it’s best to do in groups. Such as taking multiple stemmings and put them all together in one container, the CZcamsr did show the progress and it was phenomenal on how quickly they grew roots!!
By far the weirdest way I’ve seen a plant propagation-
I really like "water the plants and not the pot." I've seen a lot of people saying, "water until it runs out the bottom" every single time you water, ensuring that all the medium is soaked completely. But I live in a very humid location (outdoor humidity 60%-80% in the summer, 80%-100% in the winter.) and I find that doing that just encourage mold growth and not plant growth. I think the idea of soaking the entire medium comes from the same people who like to keep their plants rootbound. If your plant is rootbound you do need all the medium soaked because it's all roots.
I hav only propagated using water. I just cut the leaf, let it harden over a couple days, place it in water at least half way up the stem, then let it sit in full sun. Full roots are in place within 2 months.
Never thought that they can be propagated through leaf cutting, wow. Plants are amazing. ♥️
So I have a frost and not watermelon peperomia but they have similar growth patterns. But I just stuck my leaves in water and after about 2 months it had produced entire tiny plants and I transferred to sphagnum moss and they are absolutely thriving!!
Mine rotted. Actually I think this is quite a difficult plant
Two viewers mentioned a GREAT tip, you can do this in a pot that will be their final home so you can avoid the transplanting process and not shock and potentially kill them like i did!! I put a lot in the same container because i dont have room to have 6 or 7 pots dedicated to the process but wow, what a simple and yet effective tip. If you are only doing one or two leaves stick em in their forever pot!!
Best channel that actually shows propagation results of plants from various methods
Thank god this wasn’t another video that tells you want to do but never if it actually WORKED ! And Thank you 🙏
That’s really good advice about watering the plant instead of the entire pot. Definitely will try the soil method you showed! Thanks for the detailed video!
Whoa, didn't know these could prop from their leaves too! Great video and experiment!
Love the time you take to film the full propagation process! Keep it up ❤️
I love the updates in the same video that you cut them. I often wonder how propagations turn out on some other plant vids but have to search for them…this was all laid out for me. Thank you for such a clear cut video from beginning to end!
You are one of the very few plant CZcamsrs that I trust!
i really appreciate your organized, “science experiment” approach in this video (-: thanks so much
I had no idea it took so long to propagate these plants; they seemed fast-growing otherwise! I probably won't be getting a peperomia -- if a plant is very sensitive to accidental overwatering, then I should stay away from it :)
