Hi, so this is my first time propagating pothos and I’m not sure if this is normal or if I’ve done something wrong? The base seems to be rotting and I’m not sure why? I’ve only really propagated monsteras before so any advice in pothos propagating would be so helpful!
This happens to some of my props too. As I understand it, the plant doesn’t need the stem below the root. It’s never been a problem for me-the prop still grows roots.

Once that part gets soft I usually just rinse it off when I change out the propagation water. It’ll root well

If the stem is going bad you can cut it, I’ve heard dipping it in cinnamon helps but I also started seeking the open ends with wax!
