Suzanne here, an older lady that grows a lot of pothos, water every other week, for me, i also grow many of mine in water, they are easy to grow in water, and will live a life time in water, but not so in soil, and also every plant is different, i have some pothos that died no matter what i do, it begins with a healthy root to begin with, and sometimes we get a pot full of unrooted leaves, watch out for that when you buy one, that they have runners and not just leaves, and they do NOT like tap water, always use water thats been sitting out a few days, i keep bottles in my kitchen full just for my massive amount of them, i am a fool for the neons

I have had pothos fir 5 years now without knowing how to take care of it. All I did was make sure it is in the appropriate light and watered appropriately. And recently I trimmed it cause it was getting very crowded. Without realising the cuts can become a new plant I threw them away yiiikes 😱😭. I should have checked KZfaq before taking any action. Your pothos plant is so beautiful and healthy. Now I know better I will look after my pothos properly.

just an old plant guy chiming in, with plants like pothos, spaths, calatheas, etc. making your own soil mix and keeping it moist is really the best way to go. you can grow pothos in water, its when the soil gets more muddy you get root rot, its not excess water rotting your roots, its inappropriate soil, like standard potting mix the roots want a looser mix. by adding plenty of orchid bark, coco fiber, tree fern, etc. to potting mix you really help your roots and you can use larger pots, and you can keep the soil consistently moist. you don't want to hang larger pots, but a . the leaves will get bigger the larger the pot, and as they trail up the leaves can get huge. your little e. pinnatum can get lobed monstera sized leaves if given enough space to do so. while its a great little hanging plant its also a very dramatic large totem plant. you don't want to take a cutting and put it in a 12" pot, but going up a pot size every year or two when you repot, and letting them trail up a totem you can get really big lush leaves. I just measure by feel so I can't give you any "recipes" but with a little googling a lot of people have them. A common one is "ABG mix" used by Atlanta Botanical Garden to grow pitcher plants, but popular with terrarium aficionados, etc.
@MyWastelessLife4 жыл бұрын
Thanks so much for these info! 💚 I agree that mixing own soil is best, some beginners find that intimidating, tho I also encourage it coz I feel it's also more cost effective in the long run, especially if we have lots of plants. I am trying to experiment with pots with the same diameter but are deeper taller pots to give roots more room to grow downwards and yeah, I've noticed that my monstera has been growing larger leaves and I want to see if I can do the same for my golden pothos with the same type of pot and also letting it climb up a pole. ☺️💚
@Gee-xb7rt4 жыл бұрын
@@MyWastelessLife I keep meaning to add to this and forgetting, old age is like that, lol. I think as long as their aerial roots can take to a totem the leaves get larger as they go up, it seems to be the standard for most tropical vining plants. You can wrap a vine around your house but if it can't attach itself the leaves stay uniform. In my less than humble opinion spaths look really good in the low, wide pots, the varietals that with narrower leaves and send out a lot of offsets and clump. Its a very simple almost like a decorative grass effect with 100+ leaves on a plant. The uniformity of a lot of leaves is a very nice calming aesthetic, much like a full pothos. My spath pots get all the compliments even if they are just spaths. if a plant only has a few leaves it looks like a Charlie Brown Christmas tree that i paid too much for to most people. .

Silver/Golden/Marble Queen Pothos and Philodendron Brazil are definitely my favorite plants!!! I love the long cascading vines when you have them hanging in macrame or baskets. So nice when you have no floor space for a shelf or cabinet. Video request: I would like to see how you go about watering your hanging plants. I bottom water, but not sure how much water to add. Right now, I only water every 15 days when dry. I need all the help I can get in this area. Thanks for sharing your creativity and knowledge. 😘
@MyWastelessLife4 жыл бұрын
Same! They're great for small spaces. 🤗 That's a great idea, I'll include it in one of my future videos. But tbh, I do bring most of them down since I bottom water too, but two of them is in self watering planters so they can also be bottom watered and I don't have to bring them down. One is the Wally eco planter that I mentioned in this video, which is pricey and requires a lot of plants to look full, but my Cebu blue Pothos is in a 6" self watering planter that I got from the dollar store, so that's a cheaper alternative to the Wally eco and smaller, but it does need to be filled up at least twice to have enough water to reach the top. Other plants I have hanging are ones that don't require watering too often, like the string of pearls and string of hearts (when it was still alive lol).

Depends on the size of the plant, can take from 5 mins to a few hours. But normally I just leave them on the tray, and when I notice the top soil is moist, I take it out. As long as your plant is not sitting in water for more than 24 hours it will be fine
