Can anyone give me some tips on taking a water propagated pothos and growing it in water? 😁

I’m not sure I understand — do you want to try growing this hydroponically?

#### Kenzie replied on 2024-07-08

Yes if that’s an option 😁

Well I’ve been “propagating” these cuttings for monnnttthhhhs. So in theory it can be done if you want to give it a shot lol

That’s beautiful! I’ll definitely give it a go!!

You absolutely can keep pothos in water indefinitely. Once it has an established root system, you’ll have to add a very diluted fertilizer to the water.

Perfect thank you!

You can keep them in a nice water globe once their roots are established. A friend of mine keeps them in a couple of his aquariums along with other plants. They work great as a natural filter for the fish.

i’ve been dreaming of doing this!!

#### Kenzie replied on 2024-07-08

Thank you! Sounds positive I’ll give it ago!

This is a pothos that has been in these bottle since before the pandemic (it actually spent 2020 in the office without any care) and it’s still thriving. It grows bigger then leaves die then it grows again… I maybe water it twice a year.  
I named her Cher.
