If you have a pothos drop some cuttings in with whatever cutting you have 😇 I recently did this and mine started growing secondary roots after like 2 days !

I do!! I have heard this but haven’t tried it yet definitely going to give it a go. Thank you!

Plant nutrient such as Superthrive

I’ve also tried rooting hormone but personally didn’t see a big difference in the amount of time it took

I just ordered some I’m hoping that helps as well!

I use a small amount of liquid clone-x and have speedy results!

If it takes too long to prop in water I pick another of the various mediums. Sphagnum moss, leca, fluval, perlite, etc. I have the most luck with the moss but I’ll try whatever it takes to get some roots!!

Using fish tank water works super fast for me!
