Im trying to propagate my golden pothos. How often do you change the water out. Does it look okay?

I don’t know the correct answer.  
However, if the water starts to look even the slightest bit cloudy. I change it.

I only change mine whenever I think about it honestly. Typically every week and 1/2 - 2 weeks. But I agree with the other comment. If it starts looking cloudy, you know to change it.

Agreed, I never remember to change them on a schedule but have successfully propagated a lot of Pothos cuttings. It looks good. I can see the beginnings of 2 roots! This is one from a cutting, it’s a year or so old, it took a while to really get settled and start growing. Good luck!
