When the roots are about two inches long

I put mine in dirt immediately and root them with some hormone growth  
Trick if you doing in water is they go into shock when placed in dirt and might lose leaves - to help keep the dirt from drying out for awhile but without giving it root rot! Then you let dirt dry our fully before watering again.. they are forgiving plants but many give up with that first shock and it will come back

I honestly just let my pothos roots grow extremely long and fill most of the propagation container. I find that the more roots there are, the higher the chance that some will thrive and the plant will live.

Although I am pretty patient, so I don’t know if that would work for anyone else 😅
