Some of the most well-liked houseplants are pothos plants. They do not have particular preferences for light, water, or fertilization, and the node on your stem is all you need to grow a pothos.
The stem’s root nodes, situated underneath the leaf or branch junctions, are where pothos are first propagated. The secret to spreading pothos lies in these minute bumps on the stems of rooted plants. Simply give your plant a haircut when it becomes lanky or too long when it is full and healthy.
Pothos Propagation: How To Propagate A Pothos
For your pothos cuttings, start by chopping off 4- to 6-inch (10–15 cm) lengths of the healthy stem, ensuring each cutting has 4 or more leaves. The leaf nearest to the cut end should be removed. After cutting your stems, you are prepared to start roots. Two methods may be used to propagate pothos. To determine which one suits you the best, you may wish to try both. 0.0 of 0.0 seconds 0% volume 00:00 01:15
The cut ends of your stems should be submerged in water as the initial step in pothos propagation. To root pothos, use an old glass or jelly jar. Put the pothos cuttings container somewhere bright but out of direct sunlight. You may put the cuttings in soil and care for them like any other houseplant around a month after the roots start to emerge or after they are 2-3 inches (5-7.5 cm) long.
Starting with the same steps as the first, the recommended technique of pothos propagation follows. Remove the first leaf from the pothos cuttings above the cut ends. Inject rooting hormone into the cut end. Make sure the initial set of root nodes is covered. Place the cuttings in peat moss and perlite or sand-perlite-perlite potting mixture. Keep your roots pothos away from direct sunshine and moisten the soil. After a month, the roots should start to form, and the young plants will be ready in two to three months.
