GIANT POTHOS Node Propagation
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 15 авг 2024
- I was sent some giant pothos nodes from PottedPlantDreams and so I tried to propagate and grow it! It rooted nicely in a propagation bin and put out a giant pothos leaf. Growing Giant pothos is the same as regular pothos its all about the maturity. All pothos has the potential to get to this size it just needs a lot of vertical space! This one was from florida so it could grow up a tree! I hope you enjoy this unique view of pothos!

Unless you can get a top cutting it’s really hard to keep pothos from reverting to its immature form in some capacity, so the fact that you got such large leaves right from the beginning and managed to keep them is pretty dang impressive!
Thanks! I'm hoping I can continue the trend! The pole should help but I doubt I'll get to full size
A good pole, high humidity and bright light will do the trick
@@TechplantChannel any update??
Yeah my go-to is to get a top cutting and hang it on the back of an aquarium that's got a mattenfilter. It'll start dropping roots pretty quickly. And the moment those roots hit the mattenfilter sponge (full of fish poo) the growth takes off. My aquariums are under plant lighting, too, which helps a lot.
@@TerraMagnus haha I do the same!
It blows my mind how different pothos looks when it’s able to thrive in areas like Brazil or southern Florida. If you take one of those simple little golden pothos houseplants and plant it outside in ideal tropical conditions, it will eventually grow to that massive size.
Yup quite a few aroids do this
monstera gone wild are gorgeous
My local nursery has pothos growing freely up the wall of one greenhouse where they keep their tropicals. Since it’s warm and humid in there year-round, they’ve gone crazy. The leaves are enormous and I was so amazed the first time I saw them.
They are native to asia
Here in ph is really humid pothos grow bigger
Man, I thought the ones I had were freakishly huge. I had a set growing out of a 30 gal aquarium stocked with some goldfish. The vines were about an inch and a quarter around. They loved that fish poop
Nice! That's pretty darn good tho, its hard to get this size indoors so nice job! I'm gunna grow some of mine in my fish tanks soon too!
@@TechplantChannel Make sure they're either near the top or you have something to hide the vine because what's under water will drop leaves and then grow roots and they turn into a tangled, snarled mess. I kept mine pinned back against the back with zip ties and suction cups.
No plants grow in there anymore, the crayfish eat everything
i have a 20 gallon tank and i think i’m gonna try to grow some pothos out of it
How long was your pothos in your tank? I’ve had pothos growing on top of my tank, I wish I could show you, for about a year now. Only 3/8ths stalk now, but I’m curious to know how you were able to wind the new growth around so it could grow over an inch. How did you do it?
How many years did it grow in your tank? I’ve had pothos growing on top of my tank, I wish I could show you, for nearly two years now. It’s only 3/8ths stalk now, but I’m curious to know how you were able to wind the new growth around so it could grow over an inch? How did you stretch out the new growth?
Here in Brazil where I live pothos can grow massively! Since the plant climb a tree, its leaves turn bigger and bigger (60 or 70cm)! I can't wait to see more updates!
Yeah its amazing
@@TechplantChannel Hi, I love ❤️your videos!! where did you buy your propagation node? Please let me know Blessings🙋♀️
@@marlenebartusch8273 It was sent to me from a friend who lives in florida. you might be able to find them on etsy tho
@@TechplantChannel do you think your can sale me? Please let me know
@@marlenebartusch8273 I only have the one in the video if I had more id sell you one! If I come across more I'll let you know
That was a crazy node! I can't wait for further updates on this beast.
Yeah its almost comically large, I think thr next leaf is going to be BIG
@@TechplantChannel pothos plants are so amazing. I can't wait until mine get larger leaves as well!
Your nodes had 100% humidity in their prop box, so I guess they were a bit shocked to get planted into soil so soon 😁 my planted propagations from a prop box were a bit slow too. Some people say that you have to adjust them to their new, dryer conditions - raise the lid and give them a small gap at first, leave the box fully open later. I can understand that it can be tricky when someone has a bigger prop box that was a lot of stuff going on 😁 but that acumulating process do sound logic to me.
Yeah for sure, I should have put it in its own box!
I have to do this with the plants I take outside in the spring, and especially my garden start plants I start indoors. My first year gardening solo I killed all my seedlings because I didnt harden them off to the lower humidity. Wasnt even 24 hours and they had all dried up haha. I learned my lesson the hard way on that one 😂
In our school back in Chennai, India, there was this one Pothos plant that had leaves as large as a meter wide, and had grown all over tall trees. Quite spectacular a sight.
yeah they are really amazing!~
I’ve never seen one like that. There is a wild one a couple apartments over from me climbing up a tree. The leaves at the top are massive! I live in Florida.
Yeah I'm so jealous of you Florida people. Almost all of thr aroids we keep as houseplants will get massive like this if you let them grow up a tree in Florida! I wish i had a house there!
3:35 well yeah you cut it in half, that definitely set it back. It lost moisture for sure and at the same time you changed the environment. I would think its girth is why it was able to bounce back.
Yeah I'm guessing the same
It feels like an alternative- universe-pothos! I wonder how much stronger and bigger the growth would've been if the whole node would've been kept together. But still great effort! Thanks
Yeah now im kinda curious too, maybe i can get another one from my friend and try!
In awe at the size of this lad. Absolute unit
Lmao 🤣 I love the phrase "absolute unit" it kills me
I know this video was made a long time ago, but I am in Mexico right now and I’m seeing huge Pothos everywhere, and I’m going to try to take some nodes/cuttings back to America so this video is super helpful for me, thank you!
My theory for the smaller one not growing as fast:
1) simply bc the piece was smaller and had fewer roots
2) cutting the plant shocked it, and (both nodes) had to spend energy repairing their wound, sprouting new roots and new leaves all at once.
3) the smaller node didnt sprout a leaf in the humidity chamber so was already behind; but lacking the full leaf means lacking energy income so would then grow even slower
Very true, Im thinking you are correct
Makes sense👍🏾
I just received a massive node from Hawaii today and it's got two new growths like yours did. I'm so stoked!
Exciting! Good luck!
Once, I saw a pothos that big. The stem was as thick as my wrist over 6 feet tall and the leaves were at least 2 feet wide! I am definitely experiencing some plant envy over here lol
Lmao, yeah they can get crazy big, I wish I lived in Florida so I could see this stuff all the time
It’s not a cutting, it’s a weapon. 💕
Lol
i’m feeling major plant envy over here. THATS HUGE!!!
Lol
Oh my, what an appropriate video. I also just received a reaaaally large pothos and I don't know what to do with it. Now I do. Thanks!!!! 😍
Awesome, good luck!
LOL why is the image of you plopping that giant log of a node in the middle of a lil prop box full of lil wee baby plants so freaking hilarious xD
It does look pretty funny
I am literally waiting for mine in the mail! So exciting!
Have fun!
I am growing mine up a pole and leaves were getting larger till I had to take a cutting to bring inside. It is re-rooted now and potted, so hopefully it will resume growth.
Good luck
This is awesome! I love Science & too find a plant enthusiast who also incorporates Science is just superb. New subscriber from the UK.
Awesome! Thank you!
The mother node!! what a monster!
Yeah its nuts
Wowza that's thicc! I'm used to seeing tiny leaves come out from props, so it was amazing to see such huge leaves come out right at the get go. I guess that giant node had a lot of energy stored in. Easy to see how they can be invasive in places.
Yeah I bet it had a foot long leaf originally so i guess its kinda small in relation to that! But huge compared to my normal stuff
Just received some pothos nodes and put them in a grow box w moss/perlite. Can't wait to see growth progress and looking forward to updates on your plants!
Good luck!
that's amazing! glad it actually propagated and producing large leaves!
Same!
Wow the size is just amazing. Best plant flex I ever saw
Lol hey I didn't do much tho thats just what happens to pothos when it grows outside in Florida lol
I had a pothos with leaves that size that got root rot recently. Broke my heart, tried to propagate it and sadly the plant reverted to mostly small leaves again. Definitely lucky to get those huge leaves from the node.
Sad yo hear your story, I'm glad you were able to save it tho!
I have giant marble queen, Njoy and manjula pothos growing here in the Philippines, they are like variegated monstera here with those fenestrations
yeah they are soo cool at max size, they get the split leaf and everything!
Gosh I remember when you got this chonk awesome update . Thanks 😃
Yeah it took forever for it to get growin!
The Wisconsin approach to doing things: "sawzall" lol😄
Lol
Wow now I need one giant pothos
Check etsy or make some friends who live in tropical places!
I saw these giant cutting available on Etsy and was wondering how anyone would go about propagating them. Thanks for the video. I'm definitely buying one.
Very cool! Please keep the updates coming!
coolest thing Ive seen in a while
have you seen the updates, it gets wild!
Wow 😮 this is huge and beautiful.
have you seen the updates? it gets pretty crazy. My community post shows the newest leaf!
I've never seen a pothos so big and I want one so bad now !
lol
@@TechplantChannel how do I go about getting one of these if you don't mind me asking ?
Wow, that's huge! Thank you for sharing this,I really enjoyed watching!
Big thanks!!
That's like how they grow in parts of florida...they get huge af 💯
Yup, this is from Florida
Holy pothos! I thought that thumbnail must be clickbait. Nope! That is a beast. Beautiful 🌱.
Lmao right!
wow this is really a giant! Awesome video - as always!
Thanks for watching!
Giant Pothos and everything about pothos video top viewer? Present! 🙋🏻♀️
Nice! I dont know if youve seen the other ones but i have a ton of pothos experiment videos that are pretty interesting!
@@TechplantChannel I have and I even bought Maxsea in small size from etsy to try it for propagation experiment like you did 😆😁
I am also obsessed about growing giant leaf pothos but couldn’t afford one in any form at the moment (look at that chonks you got there, wow!). Maybe in seversl years my pothos in wooden totem will grow bigger leafs and stalk
😳 wow where are going that plant/tree when it matures.
Can’t wait to see the next video 🪴🤗
Not sure yet lol
@@TechplantChannel 😂😂 I’ve heard that before.
the biggest pothos i have seen can't compare to that at all omg!
Yeah its crazy!
HOLY COW 😱😱😱 such a great video 😻
Lol
Was planning on doing this for a while! Thanks for showing me it's possible!!
Nice good luck!
I'm so excited i just got some nodes from Florida i hope it works out!
That is incredible! The thickness of that node!!
Crazy right!
I dislike such giant plants but it’s interesting to see others grow it
Yeah this is kind of an experiment
Wow fantastic and lovely presentation '
Thank you!
I think you would have to move them to a bigger pot that holds more soil as they start climbing. I'm in Canada and we have one growing right in the mud room of our house in a large pot. We've allowed it to climb up the walls and the leaves are about ta foot and a half long. However, the vines aren't as thick as the one you have there.
amazing, Ill repot it soon
I wish my place was bigger I really have wanted one for a while now. I think I have to get one after seeing this. Thanks for sharing your results ❤🧡💛💚💙💜
Thanks for watching! I hope you can get one soon!
Ok!
When I saw the giant lush leaves on your pothos , I was like …
I’m actually leaving my love for variegated monsteras behind.
I have one and love it .
But since pothos reminds me of
Family and the beautiful pothos they’ve
Had definitely makes want to buy and
Spoil one like yours .
Off I go on the hunt for a Golden Hawaiian pothos .
😱oh my gosh🤯
Honestly... I'm so jealous 😩
check etsy or make some online friends in florida!
I have seen some of these leaves of Pothos almost like 2 ft in length climbing trees and looking like a Monstera... you have got good growth considering they were started from just node without any leaf on parent stem...
Yup! I'm going to get it climbing thr mosspole right away in hopes to get them nice and big, we shall see!
That's a HUGE one!
I know right!?!
AWESOME! I cant wait to see it continue to mature. Put that little one in more humidity and see if it likes that.
I'll have to give that a try just to wake it up
I am really looking forward to an update on this mega chonk!
New big leaf just popped out, ill probably wait for a few more before doing another video stay tunded!
@@TechplantChannel sounds exciting! I can only imagine how big it is!
That is awesome, cant wait for more updates! Growing season is right around the corner too
yeah maybe i can chuck it out side all summer and watch it go nuts
Would you consider some form of experiment with different types of pots? Terracotta vs plastic vs ceramic.. We often discuss growing media, are pots an overlooked variable? I repotted my collection from plastic to terracotta this past summer, it seems I’m constantly watering yet everything is always dry, especially the very small pots. I’m concerned that the pro(= less prone to root rot) isn’t worth the con(=dries quickly, extreme wet dry wet dry soil as opposed to consistency in moisture, prone to hydrophobic soil). Just a thought, I love your videos and look forward to more wonderfully creative content☺️🌙✨🌿
I can make something about it, it seems you found the trade offs already but yeah there's a ton of variables!
Here in the Philippines even marble queen pothos, neon pothos, njoy pothos and manjula grow giant leaves Cz they let them crawll in trees and walls of their houses
I'm so jealous!
It's a normal pothos and usually reverts back to normal size when detached from tree your going to need a big pole to get full size
Yeah Im hoping I can maintain this size at the very least!
Man I love pothos, besides syngoniums they are my favorites. I just love aggressive vines!!!
Me too and there are so many pretty varieties!
Awesome I just started following you on RUclips. Awesome. I bought some giant hawaiian photos and giant monstera stem on etsy . Thank you so much for this video. I was looking how to propagate it. Etsy buyer send me all pdf . But this one was the actual live experiment for me. Learnt a lot from your video. Got some cool ideas . I have kept those jumbo stem in propagation box in soil . I have 4 cuttings which I delivered it on 6th Jan and today 2 of them have shown growth . I have 4 stems from skinny to huge jumbo . The skinny and the medium one have already shown the growth but the huge jumbo one I am still waiting to show sprouting , huge one is all focused on the root system. Let's see how does it goes. I am in Texas. Thanks once again. You are awesome . Following your videos. Keep it up the good work .
I mean my * etsy seller had send me the pdf copy how to propagate it.
Nice! Yeah there are a lot of ways to propagate but i like the bin one the best because its less maintenance! Good luck I hope they grow well for you!
@@TechplantChannel Thank you so much !!!
What an amazing video, I can't wait to see the next updates videos!
Thanks!
My giant photos are gigantic that I have to cut their leaves sometimes . But photos loves a little bit of sunlight for their color variegation and fast growth. Try bringing them outside bright indirect light. Or morning light.
I will in the summer!
Doesn’t matter how big a node you start off with, unless you give it a way to cling and climb it will go back to thin stems and small leaves. It’s a survival tactic. A shoot falls off and roots into the ground. It’ll then send out shoots in all directions until it finds a tree it can climb to attain more sun.
Yup, thats why i have the pole ready
Awesome cutting! JESUS ROCKS
yeah for sure he does!
Great video!
Thank you
😱 that pothos is insane!!!
Yeah I was blown away when I unboxed it lol
Another Great Vid
Thank you!
Pothos are tropical plant so a good way to grow this plant would have been to put it in a container of water, and to sit it near a window, so that it can get lots of sunlight. That's why it had such amazing results in the propagation bins, and it dried up when you transferred it to a regular plant pot.
yeah it makes sense, ive been watering it a bit more
@@TechplantChannel Do you have a humidifier? if not a get a small cool mist humidifier that will help with the moisture problem.
Beautiful! I can't wait for the update!
Me too!
This is so cool!
Thanks!
Wow that's huge I can't even get my pothos to grow at all
this is the work of mother nature tho, out on a tree. I doubt ill be able to get it to its final form
Could be Hawaiian Pothos the only way I can tell is they are more round and reg more elongated hearts shaped - such an awesome node ! I want mine on a board taking out of prop box now !
You have the best content! That thing is massive!
Yeah its crazy!
Thats a chonk and a half :O It will be interesting to see how it develops. I Would have loved to see the original plant also.
Sadly I don't have pics of it!
Awesome!!! Night temps are around 0 C ( 32 fahrenheit ) here in Japan. One small restaurant has a giant pothos with couple leaves outside in front the place ( other place has a monstera ). Maybe its the almost woody stem and thick leaves which helps them survive in freezing temperatures.
Wow, how interesting. There are some plants that can also just survive (outside) in their mature form here in Germany, but I never thought that would be possible with plants such as pothos :)
I noticed thay when I was in Japan and Korea somehow they keep plants outside way longer than I thought possible! Its pretty neat
Very, very cool
Thanks!
I saw some fat pothos growing up the fence and trees in Mexico. I wish I had one!
Shoulda asked for a cutting lol
You could help them by enclosing them to increase humidity - especially the smaller one.
Yeah I might try that!
In new port richey florida around my grandma's house giant pathos and regular pathos grows wild
Thats awesome!
@@TechplantChannel if I lived in Florida with her I would send you some they look verigated like giant hawaiian pathos or giant golden pathos close by people use to dump yard waste illegally and I think that's how it made its way growing along with other kinds of pathos and snake plants I would send some if I could
Thanks for the great vid, John Lennon :)
lol thanks!
Can't believe you didn't use a banana for scale. (This thing is huge, though. Thanks for the update. )
Yeah i dont know how I didnt think of that
Sooo awesome!!
Thanks!!
Wow that’s huge!
Forget the mosspole! If you wanna really big big leaves, let it climb up a wooden plank! Only when the aerel-roots can hold on them thelves the leaves gets really big! :)
ill give it a shot
It's the first time I say "it's thick" to THE PLANT beside what I said to THE BOYS 😂😂
Lmao
that is so cool!
Thanks!
Oh my God i didn't know they got that big!
yeah its mind blowing
@@TechplantChannel its like a stalk of bamboo, how did you find that thing?
Wow... I was waiting for this video. Its beautiful. I m goimg to try. In my city their are many giant pothos growing on trees around the city.
By the way these giant pothos love heat and humidity. Thanks.
Nice! Lucky you! Good luck and have fun!
OMG, that thing is mammoth.
It really is lol
You inspired my to start a propagation bin!
Now I want giant pothos
Edit: I've acquired a giant pothos
any updates on it??
I have one REALLY giant golden photos climbing (and going down as well) in some of my açaí trees here in my backyard. It's really common here where I live (Amazônia brasileira) but I believe mine is beautiful than any other, hehehe!
It gave some leaves longer than 80cm and with fenestrations (inside the leaf) equals to those of adults monstera deliciosa!
I can propagate in any size I want hehehe!
Wow!!! Im jealous!
Thanks, great video.
Thanks for watching!
..here in south Florida they're growing wild as weeds on the palms
I know, im so dang jealous!
I actually pulled up a string creeping into my yard the other day, and an arrowhead plant too lol
I think it would grow bigger with more humidity. It’s amazing
I think so too, I need to match florida
That thing is a beast! Would love to see a future video about your 3D printed moss pole, did you design that yourself or is it a published design?
I designed it, i have alot of designs and im going to start selling them sooon, Im still debating on releasing the stls for personal use for those of you that have printers. but i havent nailed down a plan yet
@@TechplantChannel If you start selling it, definitely let us know. I love that geometric design. Would also love to see a video about your process designing/fabricating it if you haven't already done one. In particular the pros/cons of different designs and their stability is really interesting.
I use leca/pon and semihydro for a majority of my indoor tropicals and the moss pole/climbing options are pretty limited, unless you go with something like a plank. You would think with self-watering systems it would be simpler to keep a moss pole moist long-term. Very interested in hearing more!
Cool! I would be afraid of this thing...
You could deff beat an armed intruder with it.
