Hello! New to plants (keeping them alive at least!) and propagating! I have this pothos cutting that I have had in water for over a month and finally saw these roots this morning! Any advice as to if I should continue keeping them in water or should I try plantains in soil? Thank you!
I would wait to plant in soil until the roots are at least 3 inches (I’d wait for yours to have just a little more length) with some secondary roots as well (roots off of roots!)

Wait for secondary roots!
