Many indoor plants can be propagated in glass jars of water. And you can stick those jars in pots if you want. You can forget about watering them for weeks and it's fine

Hi I have a small piece of aloe vera that's been cut off a bigger plant and it's spent about a year or two in a pot with some soil and it looked fine until recently I realized that it started to rot and it has no roots but there are new bright green leaves growing from the center. Would it be a good idea to wash the rot off and keep it in a jar like this to wait for the roots to start to growing and then replant it into new succulent soil? Sorry for a random question but you seem to have expertise in this

I don't think aloe vera will like water propagation but you can try. If you put it back in soil, add some more perlite and sand to increase drainage in the soil, and water less frequently.

Sometimes cuttings just rot and die even if you do everything right. About 1/3rd of my cuttings die even when others thrive, despite conditions being identical. So it's sometimes a quantity game rather than quality 🤷
