Has anyone tried keiki paste on pothos? I’ve got a lot of bare nodes on a plant I was

I have! I am starting to get some new little growth! It has taken a while, but in spots on my pothos that otherwise would not have new growth.

I had to put my phone away because kids lol and my pocket posted before I was quite done but did you score the nodes? The instructions said to but I’m not sure what the best thing to use to do that would be. I thought about just not but then didn’t want to waste it if that wouldn’t work

I love keiki cloning paste! I use it on so many of my plants and my marble queen pothos has taken off from using it! Makes me more confident to chop and propagate the longer stems when I know I’ll get more growth. I never have scoured the nodes, I just put a bit all over the actual node. I’ve found that putting keiki on one node encourages growth on other nodes too which is cool! Here’s a pic of new growth. I notice the new leaves are usually deformed but the leaves after that are normal.

Here is another angle of three different new stems that have come from one stem on my pothos where I used keiki paste only on one node (and I cut it too, which I’m sure that helps the growth also).
