I’ve propagated a few leaves from my sick Pothos and this is 11 days of root growth. How much longer should I keep them in here?

Plant one and give the other a week? The fun thing about being a pothos parent is experimenting and seeing what works. If one works better than the next you have your answer for next time!

That’s a good idea. Thank you.

I usually wait to for the roots to get two inches long or more before putting it in soil.

#### Terri replied on 2024-08-25

Thank you! I’ll keep that in mind and maybe will let them grow more.

#### Sunny replied on 2024-08-25

Be sure to fertilize with diluted liquid fertilizer once the roots appear on the cuttings while it’s in the water.

Okay, thank you! Because I definitely didn’t know that lol.
