The Secret to Making Pothos Grow Vines Fast - Soon It Will Climb 3 Times Around the Roof

It's almost summer again. What plants can we grow on the balcony at home to provide shade? Of course, the first choice is pothos. Besides being easy to care for, when it comes into bloom and its vines hang down, it looks absolutely beautiful. Most importantly of all, keeping it indoors also does a great job of purifying the indoor air. But many friends always feel that their pothos doesn't grow well when they care for it, and this is inseparable from our cultivation techniques. Today we'll talk about how to care for pothos so it grows fast.

No plant can grow without water, and pothos is no exception. Under normal circumstances, watering twice a week is enough. If it's in a bedroom or office, once a week is enough. In summer, generally you need to water once every 2-3 days. If there's continuous high temperature for several days, you also need to provide shade and mist it at noon, so the pothos leaves won't turn yellow. In winter, indoors, watering once a week is enough.

Sunlight is great for the growth of people, the earth, and living things, but pothos doesn't have many requirements for light, otherwise it wouldn't be such a regular in offices. That said, if pothos can also maintain normal light exposure, it benefits its own growth. If you want your pothos to grow well, it still needs 1-2 exposures to sunlight per week, but don't let the light shine directly on it.

If you're caring for it at home, we can put it on the balcony. In the office, we can grow it on an easel, because pothos, unlike succulents, can't stay very small in size. So sometimes the reason it doesn't grow well is also that the placement is wrong. First of all, the spot where you keep pothos should be far from places that give off heat. Behind a computer or next to an air conditioner are not good spots, because the appliances themselves emit radiation and also give off hot air, which is not good for plant growth. So we need to choose a suitable place to care for pothos.

If you want a plant to grow well, fertilizing is essential. Many friends think pothos doesn't need fertilizing to grow, but that's actually wrong. If you want pothos to grow especially well, like a waterfall, you need to fertilize regularly. We can make our own fertilizer, for example using beer and yogurt as raw materials for composting, which also works very well. Or we can buy some fertilizer containing nitrogen and apply it directly. Be careful to apply light, diluted fertilizer.

With all of the above done well, there will definitely be no problem with our pothos as it grows. If we want to keep several pots of pothos, we can also propagate it by cuttings, which can save quite a bit of money too. Besides that, if we can exchange ideas with experienced flower-growing friends, everyone can make progress together.
