# Hello folks, I have this Pothos that’s currently growing from two…

_Posted by Sarah on 2024-07-03_

Hello folks, I have this Pothos that’s currently growing from two propagated vines. Should I go ahead and cut and propagate part of the longer vine so the plant doesn’t just grow long and leggy? I’d add the new propagation to this plant to make it fuller. Or should I wait? If I should prop now, where on the longer vine should I cut it? Thanks for the help!

You can definitely chop and prop if you like ! I’ve attached a photo of where I would cut 😊

So that would make it 3 individual props then?

Yep ! 👍🏻

You can prop but if you let it get a little longer and curl it back into the pot a having a Bobby pen holding it down it will put out roots and shoots that come from the vine itself

Thank you for the suggestion! Last time I did the Bobbi pin trick I forgot about it and the vine got so large that the pin cut through it lol.

I personally don’t feel that it is leggy. Usually ppl chop when leaves have fallen out and there are bare spots.
