Kalanchoe doesn't need to be bought; just snip a few cuttings and one pot becomes many, until you run out of pots.

Kalanchoe (Kalanchoe blossfeldiana) is a fairly common indoor flowering plant, and it actually counts as a succulent too, because you can see that its leaves are just like succulent leaves, very thick and fleshy. Many gardening enthusiasts see a pot of kalanchoe growing at a friend's home and like it so much that they go to the flower market to buy one for themselves. But if you could grow kalanchoe without spending a single cent, would you still spend money to buy it? Today I'll show you: with just a few snips of kalanchoe, 1 pot becomes many, and you'll have more at home than you have pots to plant them in.

1. Leaf cuttings

First, go to a friend's home and snip off a few thick leaves. Then put the cut leaves in a ventilated spot and let the wounds heal. Once the wounds have healed, insert them directly into plain sand or nutrient soil and place them in a ventilated, semi-shaded spot. They will root in about 3 weeks. Remember to first put them indoors in a spot with sunlight, so they get sunlight while avoiding direct sun. The temperature must not be too low. Just take several cuttings, and if you keep repeating this, 1 pot can become as many pots as you like, and you may not even have enough pots at home.

2. Water propagation cuttings

This means putting the leaves we cut back into a cup of water. But note that you must not soak the entire leaf in the water, or it will rot. Just put the wounded part into the cup of water, then change the water 2 times about every week. If you want faster rooting, you can add some nutrient solution to it, and they will root very quickly. Then just transplant them directly into pots.

3. Division cuttings

This propagation method is probably the most suitable, not only because it has a high survival rate, but also because it won't affect the kalanchoe's flowering period. So when is the best time for division? It's actually whenever we repot the kalanchoe: just cut off the better-growing branches and then plant them directly into pots.
