Do you suggest cutting the plantlets off the leaf cuttings soon after they produce roots and then putting the leaves that they have been cut from back into the water again so new plantlets may form? Note, the leaves may have some parts cut from them where I remove the plantlets in order to avoid damaging the plantlet.

Or alternatively should I leave the plantlets grow until they are fairly large for a few months so that more plantlets will get time to form and then cut them all off together to plant?

Your help is appreciated
Regards Richard.
Last time, I take out those plantlet and leaf together from water and plant it when they reach around 5mm size.

I never put back those leaf into the water after remove those plantlet. Please try and share with us
