Some people say there's no skill involved in hydroponic pothos at all, but if there's really no skill, why do so many people still fail at it? Actually, those who fail never paid attention to these few points. Let's take a look together at how hydroponic pothos should really be done, and share some tips for getting a full, thriving pot of pothos - growing flowers as a beginner is easy.

The simple steps are as follows, for beginners to refer to

Choose the mother plant

The mother plant is a pot of healthy, living pothos. There are a few requirements for choosing the stems, please remember them

(1) High vitality

Don't choose diseased stems or old stems, as these tend to root slowly or fail

(2) Choose pothos with aerial roots

What are aerial roots? They are the roots that grow below the pothos leaves; because they are exposed to the air, they are called aerial roots.

Q: Why choose aerial roots?

A: Because aerial roots can transform into water roots or soil roots, and are very practical for soil cuttings or hydroponic pothos cuttings. The success rate is almost 100%! So choosing pothos from a larger pot makes hydroponic growing easier.

Q: What if the pothos has no aerial roots?

A: Use a sprayer to mist the leaves with water, and you can put it in the bathroom for a few days, adding moisture to the leaves every day. The pothos aerial roots can burst out after 7 days, and then it's easy to grow hydroponically.

Q: Once you have pothos stems with aerial roots, what do you do?

Use a bottle or cup and fill it with water. The aerial roots must not be completely submerged in the water; they just need to touch the water. Then keep the leaves moist, and place it in a ventilated spot, avoiding direct sunlight. This little trick is very practical, and hydroponic pothos will easily grow roots.

Q: How do you get hydroponic pothos to fill its pot?

The trick to getting hydroponic pothos to fill its pot is very simple: after roots appear, add 5 drops of organic nutrient solution to 500ml of water, which speeds up root growth and absorption and promotes good growth. Change the water every 7 days, then grow it in clean water for 5 days, then in water with added nutrient solution for 7 days. Rotate like this, and also add moisture and nutrients to the leaves. Pothos grown this way easily fills its pot.

Alright, those are the simple steps for hydroponic pothos. If you like it, give it a try. Also, for hydroponic growing we can choose a nice container, so it looks a bit more upscale.
