How do you grow pothos in water so it grows fast? A detailed guide to care techniques
1. Change the water promptly
Water-cultured pothos needs frequent water changes, generally changing to clean water every 2-3 days. After the plant grows new roots, you can change the water once a week; after new leaves grow, you need to change the water once every 10 days. In addition, you can also appropriately spray nutrient solution on the leaves, which not only lets it grow faster but also makes the leaves greener.
2. Provide scattered light
If you want water-cultured pothos to grow faster, let it receive enough scattered light. The care environment must not have strong sunlight, nor should it lack sunlight for a long time. It is best to let it receive 10 hours of scattered light every day; only in this way can it grow faster and more robustly.
3. Mist appropriately
Pothos prefers to grow in a humid environment. In summer, when the air is relatively dry, you need to spray more water on the leaves, which not only cleans the dust off the leaves but also raises humidity.
4. Prune the roots
When growing in water, prune the roots at the right time. Generally, when changing the water, prune off old roots or rotten roots to avoid increasing nutrient consumption. Proper pruning allows nutrients to be more concentrated, so pothos can grow faster. In addition, be careful when pruning and do not knock off healthy roots.
