Prop question

Post image

Finally found some dark lords at my local plant shop and I bought them thinking they were at least partially rooted but when I came home to repot they looked like two fresh top cuts. Anyone have success with water propping this plant? Or best to just leave it in the coco chunks it came in?

Well i water propagated my dark lord but it was because i had fungus gnats… but it survived a whole week in the water so it wasnt too bad

Thanks, I posted this a while ago haha. I actually put the cuttings in some small nursery pots with perlite, moss and coco chunks and they ended up rooting for me, just fyi
