This marble pothos has been a twig in water for 2 months now with no change. I was literally walking over to throw him away when I saw this green!! I can’t believe it! Also, is anyone else using thrifted shot glasses for water propagation? 😅

    from what i’ve seen (i’m no expert) you would want your pothos cutting to have a leaf on it before you put it in water, because the leaves are what actually take in the most sunlight to feed the plant so you get root growth and more leaf shoots.

      I totally agree! Unfortunately, the two leaves this guy had died, so putting him back in water was a last ditch effort to try to avoid having to buy a new one 😅

    All my prop containers are thrifted! The best!
