- This video explains how you can make your Pothos, Monstera adansonii, or any other vine (and even many other houseplants) more full and bushy!
Here is the blog post I described in the video on how to properly repot a houseplant:

Ugh, thank you for this. My satin pothos has gotten so leggy and I’ve been afraid to cut it. I now have the bravery to do it. Lol
You can do it! Don't be afraid! It's very difficult to screw it up!
The Oprah analogy was perfect! 👌🏾
🤣👍🏼 Thanks 😊
I really enjoyed this video. You showed exactly where to make the cuttings so it was very clear. I would definitely like to see a followup video or two to see how the plants adapt to being repotted together. I have to say, tho, that my favorite part of the video was seeing your little helper -- that adorable little dog -- wander into the background around the 8-minute mark.
I'm glad you enjoyed the video! I will definitely make a follow-up video for sure. And I didn't even notice our dog wander in the background! :-)

Cracked me up, subscribed!! 😀
Hahahaha, I'm glad you enjoyed!
Good info on your website about repotting.. I also never thought of putting a nursery pot inside a decorative pot if you need drainage holes. good idea
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you! So much useless advice out there, it is great to find someone sensible practical and likeable :) that I can trust my plants with :))
You are so welcome!
Bet you that plant looks incredible now. I’m jealous. Great video thanks.

You're very welcome Regina!

Glad it was helpful!
I have a question my cebu blue aren’t in good colour I just got them and repotted them should please suggest me any thing maybe light I have east facing windows I placed them 6 foot away
They r more green than blue
I would place your plant immediately in front of that eastern facing window. It will make a huge difference.
@@OhioTropics thanks for answering, I will replace it
@@OhioTropics but do u think the yellow or green leaves will heal and go blue ?
great video , thankyou my pothos is very long all the way down the wall and driving me crazy lol
Glad you enjoyed it! They sure grow quickly!!
I‘m literally a fangirl of your tips and videos :D i was your 15th follower here on youtube and all your tips are so helpful to me 😻 i‘m thinking about propagating my pothos too but i think i‘ll still wait because it‘s quite cold in germany right now and i heard it‘s not the best time to propagate when it‘s cold 🤔
Selina DiCapri Thank you so much Selina! I’m glad you enjoy my tips. It is cold where I am too, but the days are getting longer and plants are perking up. Though there is no harm in waiting until it gets a bit warmer!
This winter i started to read through most of your articles on your blog and they were really helpful! Just let me tell you i need to do a loooot of repotting :D@@OhioTropics
Selina DiCapri Glad you found the blog posts helpful! Keeping houseplants is definitely a dynamic process and there is always something to do 😊
This was super helpful! Thank you so much!
Glad it was helpful!
Can u tell me why my pothos rotted and did not root I have done it before and only have the cuttings rotted.
Read my new blog post. It should help you immensely: www.ohiotropics.com/2020/06/16/pothos-not-rooting/
Lovely plant cuttings ..
Nice video
Stay connected.
Mita Bishnoi Garden Tips Thank you
Why would you cut the leaf off? Why not cut close to the node and submerge in water? The vines will still be long.
I know I was not terribly efficient in this video, but it did the job. I normally use single node cuttings now.
Is there a reason you couldn't just put the new starts right into the pot instead of using water first? I'm just curious!
Either one is fine! I just find it a little easier to wait until they grow roots in water first (less monitoring). You can absolutely put them straight into the potting mix as long as you can keep the mix moist.
@@OhioTropics that makes sense. Thanks so much!!
Wow
Thanks for the video, but I honestly couldn’t pay attention because of your cute dog😅
Hahahahaha
Why can't you prune the roots just like you pruned the leaves?
Nice video but you should show us the results of what happened to those vines which you put in the water
I will try to do that video soon. They rooted and I haven't potted them up yet! I got lazy, haha.
@@OhioTropics waiting
Thank you for the tips
South Rooted OUTSIDE OUTDOORS You're very welcome!
On 17th Aug19, I got a length of lemon-yellow coloured guess golden pothos or money plant. I got 4 leaves with roots and kept them in a bottle of water. Same day I had also took a piece of my regular pothos and kept in another bottle of water. By 24th Aug 19, the regular pothos had new root growth with new leaf. But the golden pothos has no growth at all; also one of the pieces had a new leaf growing which had started rotting. So I added a pinch of SAAF in the water after changing it.
Please advise as to what should I do to make them grow.
Hi Sukanya. I'm not sure what you mean by SAAF? I would just keep monitoring the plants. Not all cuttings will grow at the same rate.
Thank you so much for this. I've transplanted my Pothos a few times, but it just keeps getting so darned long and lots of areas have dead leaves now. These tips helped quite a lot.
A question though - should a trellis be used for when it gets too long? Or should we let it get long or continue to just trim/prune it back to keep it the shape/size, and replant those clippings to get a fuller/lusher plant at the base of the original? Would that work?
Thanks!
Well it depends if your plant is climbing or trailing, probably not because most pathos species are trailers which is basically hanging plants
Michelle Basa yeah, I managed to trim it back and keep the good vines and put a few clippings in water to grow roots. I had one vine however that became a climber and stuck itself to my wall and grew huge leaves and just kept growing up the wall. The roots peeled off the paint when I took it down 😂
It's really just personal preference! In the end, as long as you're happy with the appearance, that's all that matters.
Do you have any tips on how to keep the leaves growing large as the vine becomes longer? I have a pothos that does grow but the leaves it pushes out stay very small compared to the ones close to the roots.. Your plants look so healthy and beautiful!
ROSY ROSY fiertalise
My first question to you is where do you have your pothos in relation to a window? Light is #1 when it comes to growth. If your plant is not near a window, I would place it right in front of a window if you can. This will help your plant grow better. And of course, fertilize with a good all-purpose fertilizer during the growing season. This should resolve your issue. If you want, you can cut the plant back as well and remove the weaker growth. With increased light and fertilizer, your plant should push out bigger and healthier growth. Hope this helps!
Ohio Tropics Thanks so much! 🙂🙏🏼 I’m going to give it a try
Hi! Love this video❤ quick question...what happen if i let my cutting in water for soooo long? (Like a year)
You can either continue to grow in water (be sure to add fertilizer regularly though!) or you can plant them in soil. It may take them a while to adjust to the soil since you've had them in water for so long though!
@@OhioTropics oh ok got it!❤❤ thank u so much🙌🙌❤
I kept my cuttings in water for 7-8 months without fertilizer and its speed of growth was very slow . It started growing rapidly after i moved it to potting mix soil.
Thank you so much!!!!
@ohio tropics are the cuttings ready for a new video? Can't wait!!
Tessa Williams Yes 😊 I posted the new videos recently.
I would love how to grow healthy pothos vines. I have a 2yo marble queen that has literally one vine and hasn't vined out anywhere else!
Hi Catherine! What kind of light are they getting? Are you fertilizing? Having enough light is the top priority, and fertilizing is also important.
Oh i do follow u in instagram
Massive waste of good leaves. I cut my vines at every node, bunch them up like a big bouquet and then root them in water. You get a lot more plants, little waste and a way bigger plant in the end. Doing it your way makes it leggy again in no time. Just saying...😁
Stacy Ahmad That is a good method too. Thanks for sharing. I find it more difficult to handle a lot of tiny cuttings so I do it this way.
I really enjoyed this tutorial and have finally cut back both of my pothos to propagate. Thanks so much ✌🏻❤️🌿
@@11lrk17 Thank you. I'm glad you enjoyed it and found it helpful :-)
@@OhioTropics i prefer longer pieces so this was perfect.
Thank you
