The secret to making pothos grow vines fast: soon it will climb 3 circles around the roof

Summer is coming again. What plants can we grow on the balcony at home to provide shade? Of course, the first choice is pothos. Besides being easy to care for, when it reaches its flowering period, the vines hang down and look very beautiful. Most importantly, growing it indoors also has a very good purifying effect on indoor air. But many friends always feel that their pothos does not grow well when caring for it, and this is inseparable from our cultivation techniques. Today we will talk about how to care for pothos so it grows fast.

The growth of any plant is inseparable from water, and this is especially true for pothos. Under normal circumstances, watering twice a week is enough. If it is in a bedroom or office, once a week is enough. In summer, generally water once every 2-3 days. If there are consecutive days of high temperature, then shading and misting at noon are also needed, so as to ensure the pothos leaves do not turn yellow. In winter indoors, watering once a week is enough.

Sunlight is very good for the growth of people, the earth, and living things, but pothos does not have many requirements for light, otherwise it would not be such a common sight in offices. That said, if pothos can also maintain normal light exposure, it is beneficial to its own growth. If you want pothos to grow well, it still needs 1-2 times of sunlight exposure per week, but do not let the light shine directly on it.

If caring for it at home, we can put it on the balcony. In the office, we can use an easel for planting, because pothos is not like succulents and cannot keep a very small volume. So sometimes the reason it does not grow well is also that the placement is wrong. First of all, the location for caring for pothos should be far from places that give off heat. Behind a computer or next to an air conditioner are not good places, because the appliances themselves have radiation and also release hot air, which is not conducive to plant growth. So we should choose a suitable place to care for pothos.

If you want plants to grow well, fertilizing is essential. Many friends think pothos does not need fertilizing to grow, but this is actually wrong. If you want pothos to grow especially well, like a waterfall, then regular fertilizing is needed. We can make fertilizer ourselves, for example using beer and yogurt as raw materials for composting, which also gives very good results. Or we can buy some fertilizer containing nitrogen and apply it directly, and be careful to apply thin fertilizer lightly.

Once these things are done well, there will certainly be no problem with our pothos as it grows. If we want to care for a few more pots of pothos, we can also propagate them by cuttings, which can also save quite a bit of money. In addition, if we can exchange experience with experienced flower friends, everyone can improve together.
