    Hello! I bought a Wandering Jew in the spring and it has gone nuts. I had heard that you can take cuttings from these and grow new plants. I normally have a black thumb but I'd like to try to do this. Can anyone tell me the proper way to do the cuttings and how to plant them? Thanks!

    cut were ever you would like to trim the plant back to .. and with the cut piece just take the bottom 2 or 3 leaves off to expose the node.. (were the orginal leaves were) and stick it in water or in a pot with some dirt and water it .. they root very easy .. in a glass of water you will see roots within 2 to 3 days .. no need to worry about hurting this plant .. they are one of the easiest to grow and root..
