MAGIC: Put a stem of pothos in the water with another plant that you want to root, and the pothos magically causes propagation of the other plant to root super fast. I don’t know how this works, but it does. Say for example you want to root a rubber plant. Put the stem of the rubber plant in water, and then add a pothos stem to root along with it, in the same water container. The rubber plant roots much faster than it would without the pothos in the same container. I propagate many varieties of plants and I always add a pothos stem. It works like magic. Try it, and be amazed!
Had no idea! But I did add a Pothos vine to my pepperomia in a jar last week. So I am doing it already and will await the result. How exciting! Thanks for the tip.
You are the first person I’ve ever seen using the whole stem to prop. I hate when people cut between every node and then put a bunch of smaller starts in a pot. This method is so much better, THANK YOU!
Being a wine/viticulture major I've always been in love with plants, but you're right, this is a slippery slope...and now my house is literally blooming with plants and feels better than ever - I think pothos are my favorite. Thanks for the tips here Nick!
Why has my brain not connected the dots, or vines, when I’ve done this many times with my “String of’s”?!! Thank you, Nick. These make much cuter props than my messes! 😂
I absolutely love the tip to propagate the bigger stem with several nodes and loop it together. You have an instantly full plant from the beginning. I’m going to add some loops to the ones I have that are only single stems. This makes so much sense. Then I will have a full pot and hanging stems on my current ones!!! 🎉
I love that you showed the WHOLE process!! I could've used this video a few years ago, lol. I tried MULTIPLE times to root plants straight in soil, because that's what I kept hearing you could do... unfortunately, I didn't know anything about the need for humidity or even that the cutting would most likely wilt! I either gave up too quickly when the cutting looked sad OR I completely rotted the stem because of a lack of light and humidity and too much water😅
I've seen those "metal plant prongs" 12:02 referred to as "lawn staples" when using them to pin down the edges of sod to the ground below. But, I've also seen them called floral pins or floral greening pins. I actually make my own so I can adjust the length depending on the depth of the pot I'm using. And, I can also adjust the width to fit thinner or thicker stems/vines.
This Is the greatest video of all time. I have been researching how to propagate Pothos for weeks and you are the only person who has shown me the process the possibilities in the outcomes. Bravo!
I feel so lucky sitting here trying to research how to save the life of my first Pothos with 210 rolls at least 10 feet long and at least a dozen others lol! I’ve learned so much from my first video ever and then reading the comments learned that I’ve even learned more than I thinkinstead of doing it differently individually lol bear with me I have no idea what I’m talking about but I’m pretty sure I just learned a hell of a lot!
You’re a delight to watch. Thank you for teaching how to propagate and care for this awesome plant. My sister will be receiving a housewarming gift here soon ;)
I bought a very busy pothos and want to learn to propagate. Im glad I came across this video! I've seen people cut all these small pieces but this looks easier. Thank you
Pothos are great because they are so easy and robust and yet so versatile. It's a fantastic plant to lean propagation. We have had a golden pothos that I never really cared for, but I finally grew one vertical and I'm enjoying watching the growth change.
thanks for the great demo! I have a leggy neon i need to do something with and most videos I find just say what to do but expect you to understand where you're supposed to be cutting or understand what the plant parts are called so when they say "cut between the thing and the thing" I'm like the what and the what?. you actually explained it.
What a great idea! You can get U-shaped hairpins at any Target, WalMart, etc., etc. Not bobby pins, but hairpins--the kind used to keep a bun in place.
Thanks Nick: Your explanations for each option of growing and propagating pothos is very clear. I’m gonna be trying at least two of your methods very soon with my own golden Pothos. Glad I subscribed!
This is the first time I’ve seen the whole vine propagated together. Makes sense to do it this way and so much easier. Thank you for the great information you put out!
I wish I had found this video before cutting 20 individual nodes!! I could have made 3 little pots with your method. Luckily it's a fast grower so I should be able to implement this method soon! Thanks!
Nick! I just found your videos today and I have already subscribed and watched several. I really love the way you are a natural born teacher and you make these videos so interesting and so fun to watch. Thanks for all the information and keep the videos coming, please 🌿💚.
this my favorite plant.. my aunt gave me hers that was in a terracotta pot.. she had it by her big Oak tree.. the leaves trailed up the tree and they were Umbrella sized leaves! I did the same thing put it by my tree out front and the leaves were so ginormous.. people would stop to look at them in awe.
I simply love this video! You've given me more than one option to propogate and care for a pothos! I will be implementing all 3 ways just to experiment! Thank you so much!
Hi Nick! This was yet another very informative, and helpful video! I've been propagating Golden Pothos for years and I've never seen it done the 3 ways that you did it. I usually just cut a vine that has bare spots by the base, keep the part with leaves and put it in water. They are one of the easiest plants to propagate. In fact, I usually just keep them in water because I can tuck them into tight spaces, or on a small shelf. I am going to try it the 3 ways you did the next time I propagate. I like that they are already formed into a small plant. I did try cutting between each node to propagate, but they all died. Probably because I didn't realize they needed the humidity when starting in soil. Funny story, I had one of these on a shelf, growing up the back of a cupboard in the kitchen where it was up against the wall, and when I went to move it, the aerial roots had attached themselves to the paint and were growing under the paint. Needless to say that when I removed the vine some of the paint came with it. LOL! Thank you so much for sharing!
I've had houseplants most of my life an this way of propagating is a new one on me. I absolutely love it. I normally cut between each node or did a vine cutting in water or direct soil. Never thought of a whole vine attached an propagation in this way! So thx to u, I've learnt something new today! ☺️ Great video! 😉

Excellent video! I had no idea you could propage an entire vine! I'm going to do this, this weekend. Your video was so infomration and helpful and i loved the comic relieve when you gave the jar a little spank! That was my favoruite part, othere than the immense amount of information.
I so look forward to your daily videos...❤ pls keep them coming It is my personal 20mins of relax & regroup... favorite time of the day.🌿 Wish we had your suppliers in CAN 🍁
love it! I love pothos so much! I'm such a lazy plant lover and these plants are almost as indestructible as snake plant bless them :) the plastic bag mini greenhouse is so smart and also totally hilarious! lol! luckily I live in a tropical climate so I don't have a challenge with humidity here, but that's a great little hack. cheers!
normally i chop it all up individually but one time i did do a little wrappy-do and crossed my fingers....love that you are making this a normal thing! loll
I have got a lot of information from this video as I am learning to grow pothos and syngoniums in soil and had a few queries in mind which were cleared in this video. Good job!
What a great idea. I hate doing individual nodes, I rarely succeed in rooting them Recently I cut a huge piece of reverted manjula and she rooted much better. I've put her back with her mum, as the green sets off the variegation nicely. Win:win
I LOVE MY GOLDEN POTHOS!! I have started so many other plants from her and at last measure, her longest vine was just about EIGHT FEET LONG!!! Thanks for for the tips.
I'm sad to say that I had forgot about your channel.. but then I realized that I hadn't been getting any updates from you page! And I checked and I made sure and all notifications are on this is just weird
So glad to find you! 2 videos I needed to see, peperomia and rooting pothos. I've been leary of peperomia after a tragic one years ago, but recently couldn't resist a Piccolo. The stems are succulent-looking(thanks for advice there) but I'm more confident and it's survived 6 or 7 weeks so far. Funny I originally watched because you so remind me of someone I can't quite placed, but must have liked him😂 then you turned out to be so informative. Yay! Subscribed for my and plants' sake. 😉🌼
Newbie question since I haven't propagated this way before... Since this is a vine cutting, will it continue to vine/grow from only one end of the plant and then you continue to wrap it around inside the pot as it gets longer? Or since multiple nodes are rooting, will it grow as if you put multiple cuttings in a pot and all new growth points will vine?
What do you do when moving this 4" pot to a larger one? Do you. Continue to wrap the growing tip and secure with pins ? Do you cut the original cutting at each rooted node to force each cut portion to form new growing tips?
how are the going to grow out? will they create more vines or will they just grow from the end of the vine so you'll end up with just one long vine again?
My pothos is looking so sad. Many vines have lost leaves towards the base. Many leaves at base are yellowing. I reported it and don't over water it so it's a mystery. It seemed to be the most happy in a dark corner or my bedroom where as it's now on a north facing window sill. Have propagated so I can start again. Yours looks so so full at the base. Looks wonderful.
😯 have i been using rooting hormone powder the wrong way? I always placed it on the area I cut. didnt know it was supposed to be placed on the roots. thanks for this.
Quick question… (and I cannot find this anywhere on the Internet) •••On the mother plant, what happens to the vine that you took the cutting from? Years ago, I had a very long Golden Pothos in a hanging basket. If I remember correctly, at the point where I took a cutting, the ‘Mother Plant Vine’ would grow 2 new vines. Am I remembering this correctly?? It has been 40+ years ago. Ty! Great video.
I do this for my friends. Little personal gifts from I plant I bought years ago. It’s a fun thing to do sometimes they turn out so nice I hate to give them away.
Hello, I just came across your video. I have a silly question because I am new to all of this. When you have the plant in the plastic bag do you to continue to water it or just let the humidity do the work? Great informative video!
i only grow pothos in water, some have really long roots and i was planning at some point move it to soil but now,... it doesnt seem as a good idea since they didnt grew on those leika balls, and now i am scared they die if i move them to soil! any advice? thanks!
Love your videos... very informative. My question to you is, I have some pothos plants growing in water, but recently have noticed that the roots have turned black on some of them. I change the water, I use distilled water on all my plants, about once a week, should I add or do anything different? Thanks in advance!
Is this a better method than clipping each node or just a different approach? I have a friend that wants me to prop her some plants. I'm a propagation addict! Haha

Hey NIck, in the last method you showed, do you get new vine growth emerging from each of the nodes or only the tip end?
I have been guilty of leaving my rootings in the water for far too long. Is it possible to fertilize the water cuttings once they have rooted?
I love Pothos. The Community Outreach Associate of Pelham Parkway. The BX NY
I just cut a astem, stick directly into soil it grows really quick roots about in a week
Will the vine that you cut continue to grow and vine out again?
Would the coiling-vine-in-water method work with a philodendron micans? Hoping to do the same but don't want to end up wasting a vine D:
Would you name again the white stuff you dipped the roots in and the soil you used
Great video! How long vine can you use?
I love your advice
