Will a pothos’ vine split into 2 and/or grow a new vine from an existing one? I was watering today and noticed 3 growths that feel like vines/leaves. I always thought they were a single vine plant that doesn’t split so I’m now wondering what these are. This is my manjula that I got as a single vine, she’s really happy and already has put out 4-5 new leaves. First pic: ‘growth’ on the middle between 2 areal root nubs Second pic: you can see the ‘growths’ coming up through the soil on either side of the leaf stem with some brown flaky old casing. Third pic: roots - does she need a repot? The pot is still quiet squishy

    Pothos vines can split, but usually they choose not too. Sometimes they might split once they’re very long, but I find that mine split most often if I’ve taken a propagation from them. I started a marble pothos from a propagation, and once that original vine got too long, I cut it in half. The root part of the original vine then chose to put off 4-5 different vines lol. To me it definitely looks like yours is also putting out more vines!

      Oh!!! I thought they couldn’t branch out! So cool she’s decided on her own to create more vines. She’s only got about a doz or so leaves so I was going to wait to propagate her. How cool!!!

    And yes once the roots start growing out the bottom then it’s time for the next size up pot. And yes maybe give it a couple days to semi dry out but you can repot while damp the roots will be pliable and help not break when taking out of pot to transplant. But even if you do break a few roots it will be fine. Good luck and have fun.

      Ok cool thanks! I’ll repot her today/tomorrow then since I just watered her. I thought I’d have to wait longer for it to become more root bound but then use really have an issue with the roots from the bottom. Thanks!
