Hey everyone!  
I have two black velvet corms sat in perlite.  
I was wondering does adding cutting of pothos help corms grow like it can with cuttings or does it not work in the same way?  
Thank you

I’ve never tried that with corms, only water props. What helps me with corms is placing them in a closed moist container on a heating mat

We have really nice weather so they are doing outside everyday for a bit with cling film over the top of the container they are sat in (in perlite)
