How to grow pothos? A detailed guide to pothos cultivation methods

Pothos is a very popular plant in the home. Because pothos is easy to grow and can survive as long as it gets water, it is called the "flower of life." Pothos can also purify the air, absorbing impurities in the air and harmful gases such as formaldehyde. It is also known as a green purifier. It is a very beautiful and excellent indoor flower. Below, the editor will share with you some experience in growing pothos.

1. Water more. Pothos likes moisture, so it should be watered more to keep the soil moist. Not only should it be watered in summer, but the leaves should also be sprayed with water frequently. However, the specific amount of water to pour depends on the amount of potting soil and how much water the plant needs.

2. It cannot be exposed to sunlight. Pothos grows in forests, shaded by towering trees, so it cannot take direct sun and cannot be exposed to sunlight, otherwise new leaves will become smaller, the leaf color will be dull, and the leaf edges will easily burn. But it also needs moderate exposure to the sun for photosynthesis.

3. At a suitable temperature, if the temperature is too low, pothos may freeze and die back. It is recommended to keep the room temperature at around 20°C, and also be careful not to let the leaves get close to heating equipment. As long as the temperature is not lower than 10°C, pothos can safely make it through winter.

4. Fertilizing. Because it is grown indoors, the plant itself has difficulty obtaining nutrients. It is recommended to fertilize once every half month, and pothos fertilizer can be bought on the market. Or ask the flower shop owner to help choose a fertilizer.

5. Maintain air humidity. Pothos grows faster in an environment with higher air humidity. It is recommended to maintain indoor humidity, and a humidifier can be used to increase air humidity.
