Pothos can climb walls, and many plant lovers buy one just for that, only to find that no matter how they care for it at home, it just won't "climb." Today Huahua is going to show everyone how an ordinary plant lover's pothos wall is actually grown!

The pothos at plant lover @CallMeMuBrave's home has been a bit "crazy" lately. As soon as the weather turned cool, it started shooting up fast. Just look, it has already climbed a full circle around the TV wall, and soon there will be nowhere left to "put" it!

A pothos climbing into a TV wall is nothing unusual. Many plant lovers have had the same experience. Look at the two pothos plants at @IGiveMyHeart's home below. As they climb, they wrap around each other and turn into the TV's "bangs"~

Pothos not only likes to climb on the TV wall, it can also grow into a pothos "curtain" on the stairs.

When pothos grows like crazy and covers the wall, pick any of these 5 tricks

Seeing all these pothos plants covering homes, are you itching to try? Don't complain that your pothos is disappointing. As long as you master the method, the pot at your home can grow like crazy too!

1. Autumn is dry, so give the leaves more baths

Pothos loves a humid environment. Once autumn arrives and the air turns dry, if you don't "bathe" the pothos leaves more, they easily get dry tips, turn yellow, and drop. It's best to find a moment in the morning or evening and use a small spray bottle to mist the leaves.

Careful plant lovers can also add 5-10ml of beer or vitamin B powder to the clean water in the spray bottle. The pothos leaves can absorb the nutrients and grow bigger and greener.

2. Water from keeping turtles or fish, use it quickly in autumn

Some people grow pothos entirely with aquarium water. It ensures the pothos gets nutrients, and the fish can eat the dirt in the water, saving the effort of changing the water. It really kills two birds with one stone. Plant lovers who find it troublesome can also scoop out the aquarium water and pour it on the pothos to guarantee vigorous growth.

3. Soak some banana peels, and the pothos will climb like crazy after drinking it

The rice-washing water and soybean water we usually use are nitrogen and phosphorus fertilizers. Leafy ornamental plants like pothos also need potassium fertilizer, and banana peels are a great source of potassium. Chop up banana peels, add water, and soak them in an old chili sauce jar. After about 2-3 weeks, it can be used to water the pothos.

4. Brew tea dregs water, and it suits pothos best

Add some boiling water to the leftover tea dregs, let them steep, pour it into a bottle, and let it brew. After 2-3 days it can be used to water the pothos. Fully brewed tea water is slightly acidic, which is exactly what pothos likes. Watering with tea water once a week can also supplement quite a bit of nutrition.

5. Guide the growth in advance, and the pothos will climb faster and faster

Some plant lovers report that their pothos takes forever to climb. We can plan a route for it in advance. Whenever you see a relatively long vine, gently fix it to the wall with tape or string, and it will speed up its climbing.

When pothos covers the home, what problems should you watch out for?

When pothos covers the home, many plant lovers ask whether it means high humidity and bugs. Actually, raising plants will more or less come with such problems. The most important thing is to keep the home clean, wipe the leaves and remove dead leaves when you have time, and improve ventilation.

If fungus gnats and similar pests inevitably appear, you can mix half a spoon of low-foam laundry detergent into 200ml of warm water, stir well, let it cool, and spray it on the leaves. It can kill the small flying insects and also disinfect to some extent.
