How to propagate leafless cuttings from Start to Finish! | Propagate Money Plant Houseplants EASY!

Today I will show you how to propagate a pothos houseplant by node cutting. I show how to easily propogate golden pothos, but this can be done with most other plants as well! Of course there are some exceptions. Anyway, I prefer to propagate plant cuttings in sphagnum moss using a propagation box! propagation sphagnum moss propagation box propagation station

Thanks so much for the video. I only knew how to do it the one cutting in water way. I didn’t know you could do it like this. I’m learning so much about plants that I never knew and I’m 66 years old. Didn’t have an interest in them until I retired. Too stressed out working and driving every day. I’m really enjoying this time of my life and learning new things.

[@HarliG]

Welcome to the plant world! I’m happy you’re enjoying them 😊 thank you for watching!

[@coagulatedsalts4711]

i hope you have a nice and relaxing retirement!!

[@veronicaortiz1343]

do the satin pothos cutting in moss have to be enclosed in a plastic wrap no holes / plastic bag? and does it have to be left open or completely closed???

[@takishafacen3033]

Hi I'm new to your channel and I'm loving the way you propagate your cuttings I was wondering how to go about doing that I have a satin pothos as well is starting out very beautiful and full when I first bought it during cold season that we've had it kind of wilted my leaves on the plant so I remove the bad leaves my stems are still healthy and strong I have three long stems each one of them has leaves at the end and I was wondering how do I go by Saving this plant in cutting the stems to make new growth to get it back to being a full bushy plant so now I watch your video I'm going to try that and can't wait for the outcome

[@backseat-of-the-audience]

would love an update on that pothos in a few months

[@Little_diesel300]

Seeing Golden Pothos wet sticks was kinda funny to me tbh

[@HarliG]

Hahaha me too TBH 😂 I just thought they’d be a relatively quick one to show the process

[@ohenao]

I'll be honest I still won't be intentionally plucking healthy leaves off of nodes 😂 but this is really awesome for when plants get leggy and there are already a bunch of leafless nodes!

[@PlantyLadySue]

Yep, can’t get myself to pluck off healthy leaves either.

[@WilnaWanderlust]

it's very helpful towards my plants that are consisting giving stem without any leafs! 😂😂😂

[@HarliG]

Hahaha same here! Frustrating at times, but hey! Perfect excuse to propagate 😂

[@meganboyd4269]

Hi I’m Megan I’m ten years old I love plants and your videos I’m hoping to get a pothos any suggestions of pothos I would be so thankful for !

[@laurakissthechef4674]

Yesterday I brought my friend a plant I had propagated from my sparkly tradescantia zebrina :) I think these plants make for the loveliest gifts because you put your patience and time in them.

[@TeffyBabyy]

I always keep the leaves on until the roots start to form and the first new leaf starts to sprout, then I remove the leaves so the plant can focus all energy into the new roots and fresh new growth😊

[@HarliG]

That’s a good strategy too!!

[@TeffyBabyy]

@@HarliG Thank you!!

[@finflwr]

The leaves are not a drain. They literally produce energy in the form of sugars to power growth. To me it's completely counter productive to remove them and expect this to improve growth. It has the opposite effect; it will slow it down. Ps; I'm a horticulturist that studied plant science. It's frustrating to me to see this advice everywhere and the assumption that leaves are a drain to be removed completely from cuttings. There is some dehydration from leaves which is why we often reduce leaf area when taking cuttings, so that the dehydration is reduced while awaiting new roots to rehydrate the growth, but that is the only reason to reduce leaf growth on cuttings. Clearly all methods work in the end due to the vigour and pure will to live from plants, but it isn't helpful to reduce the part too much that actually makes the sugar from photosynthesis. sorry, rant over. this really bugs me, lol!

[@TeffyBabyy]

@@finflwr well, first things first... Thank you. That was actually extremely informative!! I am not a horticulturist but love studying plants in propagation and anything to do with Horticulture and have been "amateurly"(i know thats not a word lol) doing so for about 8 years now... I keep the leaves on until Roots grow and a new Leaf starts to sprout, and then I will take off the original Leaf from the node. I'm going to see if you have a channel because if you do I will be subscribing 😂💚

[@finflwr]

@@TeffyBabyy That's ever so kind of you, lol!

Tfs Harley . I’m in Florida and found Giant wild Golden Pothos - so exciting . The ones up high on the tree have fenestrations !

[@alli9133]

I jumped into this when someone gave me a long nearly leafless exotica stem. Wasn’t exactly sure what to expect but I’m happy to say it’s working! This video just showed me what to do once I get a leaf, so ty! I have to say I’ll get a lot out of that free , Mile long and nearly lifeless vine in a pot of crispy dry dirt, lol. Very satisfying indeed. ❤️🌱

[@lenaleven7191]

I love that you make fuller plants because that is what most people prefer :)

[@MarlenePlantkins]

Again, this makes me wanting to propagate more plants :D 🌱

[@jenniferjsaracino]

I did this with cutting from a friends njoy and in 2 months I have a huge plant!

[@LocGoddess126]

I had to go back in my history to find this video. This is amazing informant and this method works perfectly! So I currently have 4 stems sitting in a shallow clear bowel on a paper towel that's wet with water and a few drops of plant food. It's been about 3 weeks and the yes! I have baby leaves now. This method worked great on some store bought garlic as well.🤭👏🏾

[@baileyrogers2783]

Can we please get a propagations tour? I know you've done them in the past but it is so fun! ALSO! How do you keep your prop boxes from molding when the lids are shut completely? I find stagnant air usually is where I go wrong

[@Shann1989]

Yeah, same! And when some more thin leafs touches the moss it will rot. :-(

[@jacqueline9483]

I am 1 week into trying this and the entire tray is very musky smelling.. I also think the lack of air circulation is the problem.

[@dumbgirl8]

you can do a preventative hot bath, so sanitizing the container and the cuttings with hot water bath for a few minutes to kill potential fungi. and you can also use a fungicide (diy or store-bought)

[@gracekairos]

i know this comment is a year old, but i mix a little hydrogen peroxide and water together and mist the cuttings with that instead of regular water.

[@alexishernandez-yu8in]

I’ve been googling about this all weekend. Thank you 🙏🏻

[@mahoganyrootsstudio158]

Harli, it was last year, I think, when I learned from one of your videos that you could propagate a node without a leaf. I was shocked. Now I propagate both ways but I must admit that watching a leafless node grow roots and leaves is so satisfying. Thank you for sharing. Also, Thank you for being one of the minority of plant tubers who will mention ways to drive plant prices down. I'm sure there are many people who are upset with Costa Farms for mass producing highly desired overpriced plants. But that's how I was able to obtain the ZZ Raven, through Costa Farms.

[@mstickney6612]

I have a cebu blue pothos because of them! They’re not super cheap, but still cheaper than paying $5 for one node

[@joanmurphy3578]

This made so much sense to me. I’m one of those who water propagate with just one stem. So I must try this!! I want fuller plants! Love this video!

[@amandabourgoine9448]

WOW so informative! I had no idea you could propagate this way and I've been looking to do so with my pothos, monstera and philodendron for a bit. the philo is going nuts at its' nodes, rooting already, etc. and I just needed to know how to properly cut them so I did not kill them during the initial propagation process. Thank you!

[@GoYvon]

I watched your video about your propagation boxes and got the moss recently. I had already put a monstera node in some soil and perlite, but transferred it to moss in a propbox. It has a small grow point when I left 6 days ago, now it has a leaf!! 😀 I'm very excited! It got too tall for the lid to fit, so now I've put a small plastic bag around it to form a dome. I'm going to travel for about 10 days, so hopefully the dome will keep the moisture up so it won't dry out and die when I'm gone.

I'm a beginner when it comes to propagation, but I also prefer to have single leaf cuttings and plant several into one container to have a fuller plant. At the moment I'm propagating a golden pothos, I put all the individual leaf cuttings in water and was left with a few bare nodes. I don't have sphagnum moss, so let's see if I can get those to root in regular potting mix! I'm excited to see how the experiment goes ☺️. Thanks for the video! I also liked that you showed us the 1 month update, those tiny leaves look so cute! Have a nice weekend everyone ☺️🌱

I'm so excited to propagate just the nodes but also nervous!

[@marinamorgan9102]

I'd love if you did a video on leca. Maybe testing different types of plants in leca and the basic care, pros and cons. I'm not sure if you've tried it before because I've only seen you use a soil mixture and I've been curious about trying it. It seems easier to manage and maintain than soil but there isn't a lot of clear information about it on youtube. I also know you use liquidirt and I do too after watching your videos and don't know if it would be good with leca because I've seen others use ph balancing solutions and such. Love your videos btw!
