    I am going to cut the top of the main stem on my plant. I want to use that cutting to make a new plant but dont have any type of rooting solution. Is it possible to root it in just water?

    rooting solution isn't a lot of money and can be found at most garden stores.

    it's definitely possible. check out the link below. I don't know how easy it would be to make sure the stem was getting enough oxygen and didn't rot though... seems like he was just barely keeping the stem in water.. at the very surface of the water..

    Yes it can be done, provided you have good ph and controlled, but your success rate will be very low compared to using a rooting powder/gel.

    EVery place selling garden supplies will have powder rooting hormone.
