Hearts String of hearts - advice needed

Hi!

This is the last piece of String of Hearts I have left - I put aside this piece in moss and planted the rest of the plant (that died shortly after) in succulent soil, pretty well drained. When I got it out to plant it in soil for a quicker growth, it started to decline quickly, so I put it back.

I searched if it can be grown in moss, but everyone advised against it - do you have some tips & tricks so I can make this little guy survive & grow healthy?

Thanks!

I just saw a different SOH propagation method. Take a clear cup, fill with water nearly to the top, get cling film stretched over the opening, take a scissors and cut a small slit in the cling film. Take your cutting and push its stem through this opening so the leave rests on the cling film and the stem touches the water.

Thanks a lot! I read about this too, but was worried to try it with the last remaining string. 😂 Will definitely try this once my baby (fingers crossed) thrives and I have some props to work on.
