How to grow pothos? Master these 2 tips, and in less than half a year it will grow wildly into a pothos wall

Pothos is a fairly common plant in the home. As an evergreen foliage potted plant, it can be said to be the easiest to care for. And precisely because it is easy to grow, flower lovers inevitably get a little careless in their daily care of it, which easily leads to some small problems. For example, pothos not growing bigger, pothos leaves turning yellow, and so on. Problems like these that I mention are extremely common. To be honest, there is not much fuss to growing pothos, and avoiding the above problems is not hard. What is hard is how to make pothos grow more and more vigorously. Some people struggle to keep at it when growing pothos; keeping a pot of pothos for one or two years is already quite good. Yet some flower-growing experts can keep pothos for several years, with more and more leaves, until it even becomes a "pothos wall."

To grow pothos into a monster, just rely on these 2 "secret tips." Use them well, and in half a year it becomes a pothos wall

To grow pothos well, you first need to understand its basic growth characteristics. For example, it likes warm places with sunlight, the air needs to circulate, and the soil environment should mainly be loose, fertile, slightly acidic soil. After understanding these, we also need to know some little tricks and "secret tips." Only by mastering the techniques can you grow pothos, or any other flowers, well. Next, Potted Plant Station shares some little secret tips for making pothos grow wildly. I hope they can help flower lovers. The following 2 little secret tips are summed up by flower lovers after long periods of trial, and they are both simple and practical for caring for pothos.

The first secret tip: when fertilizing pothos, add a few "soybeans" to the flower pot

In pothos care, besides watering and light, fertilizing is also very important. For any foliage plant, one fertilizer that cannot be missing is "nitrogen fertilizer." Nitrogen fertilizer can be divided into chemical fertilizer and organic fertilizer. Generally I suggest using as little chemical fertilizer as possible when fertilizing, and best to use organic fertilizer, so it will not burn the roots of the flower potted plant, nor cause the potting soil to harden (if too much chemical fertilizer is used, the soil hardens extremely easily). Soybeans from home are the most convenient organic nitrogen fertilizer. However, before use they need simple processing. They need to be boiled first, then sealed in a container and left to ferment for a week, and only then can they be buried in the pothos potting soil. Use it once a month like this, and the pothos will become even more glossy green.

The second secret tip: use rice water instead of tap water to water pothos

Growing flowers and watering takes three years of skill; the importance of watering flowers is self-evident. I used to always hear flower lovers comment that their flowers died after being grown for only a short time. To put it plainly, it is all the result of improper watering. Either too much water was given, or there was a problem with the water used. When caring for pothos, I suggest flower lovers stop watering with tap water. First, tap water contains chlorine, which is not good for the health of pothos; second, freshly drawn tap water also has some impurities. Yet the common rice water in daily life can completely replace tap water for watering flowers. After all, rice water still contains quite a few nutrients (especially the potassium left on the surface of the rice), which is good for plant photosynthesis and promotes rapid plant growth.

That is all for sharing about the daily care of pothos. Of course, growing pothos well does not rely only on the above 2 secret tips. What matters more is that you have to be attentive yourself! Only with more attentiveness will flowers be grown well, and life will get better and better. Finally, let me tell everyone that if in the future, while growing flowers, pothos has any problems, you can leave a comment, or if you have any good flower-growing tricks, you can share them too.
