# Hey guys! This is my first time propagating a plant, and the roots of…

Hey guys! This is my first time propagating a plant, and the roots of my pothos have grown a lot these past couple of weeks! Should I let the roots get bigger, or is now a good time to move to soil? Thank you!

Usually want your root to be 2-4 inches, and if you can wait for secondary roots (small ones coming off the main ones) then ever better!

I agree! I would wait a little longer

I’d wait a tad longer. Usually want the roots to have roots.

I can’t seem to get my pothos to root! Can I ask about your process?

#### Olivia ha risposto il 2023-07-24

My process really wasn’t overly specific! A stem had fallen off, so I just stuck it in some water and waited about a month! I would say to make sure you have a node (little brown/white bump) on your stem, and/or wait a little longer :)
