Why should pothos be repotted every six months?

We all know that pothos has a very developed root system, which is also one of the main reasons pothos can be grown hydroponically. With proper care, it takes only a few months to go from a small cutting to a large pothos plant.

And precisely because pothos grows fast, if it is not repotted in time, the roots will fill the pot and use up all the nutrients in the soil, and the pothos will easily run into problems.

The editor suggests repotting a vigorously growing pothos every six months. Stop watering one or two days before repotting, as this makes it easier to separate the root ball from the pot wall.

When repotting, scrape off a layer of the old soil from the original root ball, cut off the dead roots, coiled roots and some of the older roots, fill a pot one size larger with fresh potting soil, and plant the pothos in it.

After repotting, the pothos will have a short adjustment period, during which it needs even more careful attention. Move the pothos to the most suitable light, temperature and humidity conditions, and mist the leaves once every 1-2 days. Before long, the pothos in its new home will be full of vigorous life again!
