Moving a Rooted Schefflera Cutting from Water to Soil

Transition Steps

1. Plant in a pot with good potting soil indoors first.
2. Let roots establish for several months.
3. Harden off: 2 days in protected shade, then increase sun by 2 hours daily over a week.
4. Plant in garden after full-day exposure.

Why This Works

Indoor potting minimizes shock. Gradual acclimation prevents leaf scald. Schefflera adapts well once established.
