I let them callous over for a few days beforehand.

    Lay them flat on potting soil, mist from time to time, they won’t usually root in water.

    The idea is to mimic the natural process where a leaf will break and fall on the ground to take root

      Thank you :) Would you cut off the lowest centimentre that was laying in water or would you put them on soil immediately?

        That I’m not sure, never started a succulent in water If it looks like the tissue is waterlogged probably cut it, but if the callous is intact it might be fine?

        Oh, also if you have access to it, “cactus” soil mix will be the best
