Propagation not growing in a pot?

Hey guys, so maybe about a week ago I potted a clipping from my garden which had previously been in water and had some solid roots growing. Since potting, I’m pretty sure the roots has continued to grow because I gently pulled at the base of the plant and it was pretty secure in the soil, but there hasn’t been any new growth on top.

The clipping was that length when I took it from the garden, and the damage to the leaves had already been done before I’d propagated it, so I’m a little bit confused about what’s happening.

Because it didn’t seem to be growing much I did add some coffee grounds as fertiliser to help it along a bit, but I’m not sure if that’s as the right call.

Any thoughts?

(I have since moved the pot away from the windowsill but still in bright indirect light because the stem was turning red) #PropagationStation #PlantsMakePeopleHappy #PlantAddict #witchesmoneybags #NewGrowth

It's likely still focusing its energy on the roots for now. :) a lot of props won't put off new leaves for a couple weeks after potting because the roots needs to adjust from water to soil. As long as it doesn't look sad, I'd just give it some more time to adjust. Hope that helps!
@BeckInkk perfect, thanks!
