During the cooler, dormant months (fall and winter), significantly reduce watering, sometimes to once a month or even less if the soil remains damp.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eCheck the Soil:\u003c\/b\u003e Always check the soil moisture before watering. You can stick your finger about an inch or two into the soil. If it feels dry, it’s time to water. The leaves might also show slight wrinkling when thirsty, but don’t wait for extreme shriveling.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eAvoid water on leaves:\u003c\/b\u003e Try to water the soil directly to prevent water from sitting on the leaves, which can lead to rot, especially in humid conditions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e3.

Allow the leaf to “callous over” for a few days (this means the cut end will dry and seal). Then, lay the calloused leaf on well-draining soil. Lightly mist the soil when it’s completely dry. Roots and a tiny new rosette will eventually form at the base of the leaf. The mother leaf will eventually shrivel and fall off.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eStem Cuttings:\u003c\/b\u003e Use a sharp, sterile knife or scissors to cut a stem section.
