Okay so I did lots of propogation on this one. Leaves are growing fine but top rotted :sad:
Anyway, what should I do now? New ones are growing off the sides - should I try to propogate those too? They'd be pretty hard to get off without destroying them though... I don't know Confused

I would let those side shoots grow out to about 2 inches then cut and root. The mother plant should continue to grow.

When my cutting show new growth that means you have roots. I give them a shot of cactus juice (fertilizer).

Cuttings 2 months old.

Steve- Thank you!! I'm assuming you mean 2 inches in diameter, because it'll take quite a long time to get these guys that tall Rolling on the floor laughing

Two inches in length. When you get roots your start should put on rapid growth. In this photo, in the center I have starts very similar to your plant. Photo taken 2 months ago. This morning I cut off 10 inches and turned into 4 plants and the leaves I stripe should root and make even more plants.
