How to haworthia plants breed

I have a haworthia plant and the roots rotted but the leaves still look quite healthy. Can I still save it somehow?

 

Depends on how far the rot has got into the main stem.

If it still has roots, dont water it, keep it in a warm dry atmosphere, tidy it up a bit and wait.

 

The roots are completely gone now

 

Cut it off cleanly and let the cut surface dry for a week.

It might root after that if you place it on the surface of damp sand.
Never tried it myself though, so good luck.

 

As Pete say cut clean , dry for a week , use some rooting hormone , put in damp sand and in a propagator if you got one , need warm to reroot and essencial do not watering the top af the plant , water on the rootless plant will just kill it.

 

i have a haworthia and it has sent out a flowering branch out towards the sunlight
now do they have pollen and seeds or do they need another plant for seeds ????? am new to gorwing this type of plant..any input would help lots

 

Jeff, vegetative propagation is best, ie. offsets.
Seed would be interesting but a long process.

 

ok am new to this ....flowering branch reaching towards sunlight should i just let it be and see what happens???or catch pollen for another try with female plant????

 

Actually Jeff I usually cut the flowers off, they are not very interesting.
But let it be to see what happens if you like.

 

ok will just let grow on their own with my cactus in the fish tank 50 gallon ,have about 18 cactus growing from cuttings,doing quit well if you ask me

 

Jeff , got one exactly like yours and in few years time you will get lots of plants out of the base ....love your opuntia microdasys , make sure you will not overwatering them .
Ps welcome to the forum

 

thank you i bought 1 plant ,left it in the window all summer,light sprinkle of water once a week and they had multiplied like crazy ,so i cut off the new growth and just dropped them in the soil and forgot about them and ,as you can see they do very well
have bunch of san padro seeds gonna try them next,any help or input from others would be nice.....THANK YOU ALL FOR INPUT..

 

Oooooh Pete - you are harsh!!

To be honest, I quite like them. Haworthia spiralis................

 

yes they are pretty eh ,the wife likes them and wants me to grow more,starting san pedro cactus in a few weeks , any tips???????anyone????

 

Hi Jeff , San pedro are quite slow growing cactus , but they are really hard , like every other cactus give as much light as you can , try not to watering in winter .
ps if you start from seeds it will take years before you will start to see a decent plant.
