Just stick it down in some potting soil! Water like normal but don’t let it get real dried out. Pretty easy… good luck!

Stick in soil or water

These propagate really well! Like the other commenter said, usually if you just put it in moist soil and have patience it will grow just fine. One small though, you might want to make a cut a little higher up, an inverted V will give it more surface area (edge?) and let it dry out completely before you put it in the soil. I’ve done them in cups of water first as well and waited until i see roots before transferring it to soil. Good luck and I hope it grows for you!

Inverted V seems to be the method I see all over the web

Mine never work with the inverted V or water they just rot. I put mine in perlite and water cover with plastic and forget it. That seems to work every time. Or cut it in half and try two methods. 🤷🏼♀️

One inch deep in a good dry potting soil, don’t water, don’t put in direct sun. After 1 month water a very little, water again in another month. You will see pups coming up at that point.

Snake plant will propagate in anything that keeps it damp. I’ve done perlite, moss, water, and soil. It takes a while (like months), so as long as it’s firm and green, just keep going! i feel like i saw roots fastest in a cup of water, and soil was “fastest” for a new pup (either started in water or in the soil).
*added* oh! and that’s a clone. so the new plant will be solid green and may or may not get striations as it ages.
