Yes unfortunately. Cut above the rotting edges and start all over again.

Cut back. Then use only water. Change water when it starts to turn brown. Good luck.

Smell it. You’ll know. I’d cut back either way

Plants don’t like stuff (leaves or other matter) in the water with them. Just nice clean water.
Similarly when you get a bouquet of flowers you want to make sure no leaves are below the water level.
As others have said.. clean water only and cut and start over.

Generally it’s water OR moss, not both.
I prop in sphagnum moss and yours is way too wet! You want to squeeze the water out of it until it is just damp and use that.
When I prop in water, it’s just water in there with the cutting.
Trim back the black squishy bit and pick one or the other (or both-just separately) and you should be good to go!

Squeeze the water out that moss… Just heavily damp is all you want
Or just use water… Id just use water if they were mine
Make new cuts above the black bottoms and then retry.. you got this

hi I used perlite for a cutting that was rotting in water. 90% perlite 10% water, I had 10x roots in a couple days . possible it won’t work the same for you, but worth a shot.
