Can I just plop her in some water? Or is there too much plant here and it needs to be cut down in order to survive 😢 I'd hate to loose all this growth though
Easy. – Remove 2-3 of the lower leaves. This will reduce stress on the (tiny) root system. – make a clean cut where it broke and spray with hydrogen peroxide. – i like to root cuttings in coco chips, kept slightly moist with a 20% hydrogen peroxide spray. You can also root in water. – pot up when roots are a couple inches long and keep soil barely moist until the plant starts pushing new growth.
You could almost certainly get away woth potting it ip straight away, but the other method will increase chances of success.
