Pothos loves these 4 kinds of water, grows like crazy into a TV wall in half a year, with leaves so green they look oiled

Pothos is a relatively easy houseplant to grow, it can survive with just a bit of water, and even plant killers basically won't kill it. With different care methods, some growers' pothos grows very slowly, and after a year it still looks the same, while other growers' pothos grows several meters long in a year, with leaves that are still glossy green, looking so pleasant. Let's all take a look at how they grow theirs, shall we?

Pothos doesn't demand as much from its environment as orchids do, nor is it as delicate as roses that get sick at the drop of a hat. If you want your pothos to grow well, you only need to focus on water, fertilizer and light. If everyone keeps theirs in a cool, ventilated spot, then the only difference is water and fertilizer.

1. What kind of water do growers with thriving pothos generally like to use? The most commonly used is rice water. This water is also easy to prepare: after washing rice each day, put the water into a plastic bottle and let it ferment for ten days to half a month, then you can use it to water your pothos. Water the potting soil once every 10 days, and the pothos grows glossy green, though fermented rice water does have a bit of an odor.

2. If you want a fermented water with no odor, you can try orange peel water. Usually we collect orange peels, put them in an empty plastic bottle, add some water, and let them ferment for 1-2 months until fully fermented, then take it out to use. This has no foul smell, and even has a hint of orange fragrance. Each time you water your pothos, mix in a little orange water; it can improve the acidity of the pothos potting soil, so the roots absorb nutrients better and there are fewer yellow leaves.

3. If you don't want to ferment it yourself and want to use a ready-made water, you can try "sugar water." This is an organic nutrient solution specially made for pothos, fermented from sugarcane raw materials, purely plant-based fermentation, with no pungent odor, so it's fairly safe to use at home. Use it once a week on your pothos, and it grows glossy green with aerial roots sprouting like crazy, and it can grow several meters long in just a few months.

4. If you keep fish at home, the water in the fish tank is a treasure for growing pothos. The water contains fairly rich nitrogen, and when used to water pothos, the green leaves grow bigger than a palm. Using this kind of water on pothos, you worry that too little won't grow well, and too much will rot the roots. So how much is suitable?

Watering pothos generally means watering thoroughly once the soil has dried out. When the soil turns white, water it evenly and thoroughly; watering thoroughly means you see water flowing out of the holes at the bottom of the pot. If you want to accurately gauge the amount of water and fertilizer, you can use a plant and soil meter to help. This is a great assistant for growing plants: just insert it into the potting soil, and through your phone you can see the changes in the soil moisture and fertility readings, simple and convenient.

If you want your pothos at home to fill its pot and grow like crazy, you can try these kinds of water. If you have other care experience, you're welcome to share it!
