How To Propagate Leafless Pothos Vines ( DONT THROW THEM AWAY )

How to propagate leafless pothos vines, its actually way simpler than you could imagine. Simply take the freshly cut nodes and place them into a small bag with moist sphagnum moss. Give it LOTS of BRIGHT light and warmth. In time they will sprout new vines!

I just threw my long, leafless stems into a long rectangular planter out back in the dirt (originally meant for the trash) and watered it for a while. About a 3' length. It's now a beautiful long pothos 3 yrs old.

[@ajooni6154]

Oh my gosh, I'm so grateful for this video. I had probably a combined 40 ft of leafless vines of golden pothos, arrowhead plant, and heart-shaped philodendron because of this plant that had been unmaintained in my mom's basement for probably the last 7 years. It just kept growing vines without leaves and the woman who helps clean her house just kept wrapping the vines around each other so I got them untangled and had so many leafless nodes to experiment with. With some of them I put them in jars with water and with others I just left them in a ziplock bag with a wet paper towel. The ones in the bag are literally rooting after 4 days

[@ajooni6154]

Correction. 3 days. 🤯 We'll see how they do as house plants when I transition them to soil, I'll try to update here, but I'm confident

[@NoBootyBeauty]

It was very kind of your [cough!] friend to let you carry out this experiment on their pothos 👀 I water propagated some stems during the height of summer. I put liquid plant start and some bat guano powder in the water. 100% successful, after 4 weeks. I filled the water to just above the node, so the top of the stem still had access to air. Changed the water every week. The only difference in my results to your moss method was that I only grew one root per stem. I planted the rooted stems in the middle of the pothos pot to fill it in.

[@TechplantChannel]

nice! Thanks for sharing your success!

[@conspiracyomg]

I followed your instructions exactly and now I wake up everyday excited to look at my takeout box full of nodes 🤩 they're rooted in the moss and growing little leaves now thank you I love KZbin!!

Thank you. I found some vines that some one threw away. I was hoping I did mine correct they are already rooting within a week. And found more pieces laying on the ground so I'm glad I'm rescuing them too. Just needed to make sure they grow leaves. Your video helped alot

[@craigathonian]

Thanks for the great how-to video. I had one cutting that was potted in a tiny cup of soil...but grew over two feet. So, I re-poted it in a large bowel. The Root ball in the center, then pinned the bare stem to the top of the soil in a spiral with the leaves ending up along the outer edge. Almost all the nodes rooted. Some leafed. The bare ones only leafed out when I sniped the stem. Giving them the most stem since the outer nodes already grew foliage. (Great to see Tom Hiddleston having a hobby to share !)

[@nomay]

Thank you so much for your video Techplant! :) I don't have sphagnum moss so I did not use the moss + ziplock bag method. Instead, I have dunked the root-only cuttings in water after reading in the comments that others have had success via this method.

[@debik6118]

I was just cutting up a pothos that I have neglected for a long time. I have a long section where it went under the table the pot was sitting on, across the floor and up the other side of the table. That long section has no leaves. I searched to see if I could root the nodes and your video came up. Thanks! I'm going to try this.

[@tae5184]

Wow! If only i had seen this sooner. I attempted to do this with some leafless nodes in September (without doing any research!). I thought I could try water propagation. I kept them in a small glass and frequently changed the water. The lived for about a month, but there was no growth. After a month or so they became mushy and smelly, I had to throw them away. NOW I've been doing a lot more research on plant care, and getting advice from more experienced plant people. I never imagined I would find so many lovely plant enthusiasts to help me on my journey! Thanks.

[@xxxy6334]

You'd have had success if you replaced the water often, 1-2x/week. Ideally, let the water sit overnight first before using it, to allow the chlorine to evaporate.

[@yaserchow]

Life endures!!! Awesome video!!!

[@lucifersguts]

I remember being too scared to bring a scissor even near my plants. 🤧 Trimming was such a nightmare. But now I may even start trying to propagate? Maybe.

[@mannys9130]

I can totally relate. I still feel really sad trimming plants. In my mind I give inanimate objects and things like plants a personality and I imagine them having emotion. I make a connection with them. Cutting things off of them makes me really sad. I just imagine them crying and saying "I worked so hard to grow that, don't take it away! I need it to be healthy! You're hurting me!" 😭 I try to propagate everything that I cut off them. My flapjack plant for example, leaves me with so many little babies that erupt all around the mother plant. I unpot the mom, cut the babies off with a clean knife, cover the cut with sulfur, let it dry for a few days, and then I coat the base with rooting powder and put it in a pot to grow another new plant. There was a long stalk type cactus arm that someone was throwing away at work. I don't know what it is. I saw it laying next to the trash and I couldn't walk away. I took it home, prepped it, potted it up, and waited to see if it would survive. It looks extremely ugly. 😸 It looks like it has been eaten by bugs and birds and it looks like a zombie or something. That was 2-3 years ago that I potted it up, and it now has a brand new gorgeous section of arm growing out of it that's about 1 foot long and it still flowers each season. I call it my ugly rescue cactus. I imagine it in my mind as being very thankful that I put it in nice soil and a beautiful pot and saved it from the garbage. I blame the whole "giving emotion and personality to objects" thing on the movie The Brave Little Toaster which I loved watching as a child. The junkyard scene hit me hard and shaped my own personality. I love fixing things.

[@theprophet_-__cxvii__-_8693]

It’s super easy, like really easy. Just get either a pot of soil, or a glass/jar of water. Than cut the plant below the nodes about an inch, or underneath a single leaf which is easier, and they grow faster. So basically you just cut the leaf at the top above it if the leaf was part of the middle vine, and than below it above the next leaf, stick the stem in water or soil, change the water and or water the soil daily for the first week or so. It’s extremely easy, pothos is the easiest plant to propagate in the world almost literally

[@chelseaclerke3582]

This was really helpful! I knew I could prop a node without a leaf but wasn't sure exactly how. I have tried rooting bare nodes in water and planting them in a Terra Cotta pot with other nodes that had leaves just to see what will happen since my nodes already had roots. I wonder if I could use Coco Peat (Coir) and Perlite to try it your way since I don't have any 100% Spagnum moss and my potting soil although it has a lot of moss in it would definitely get all fungusy/moldy in all that humidity! I love that you propagated them from a dying plant, if one of my plants starts to die, like really die for whatever reason it may be too much fertilizer, it doesn't like a certain brand of soil or it's pot or I over or under watered it. I always just prop it before it is completely dead and it works great but this bare node method is a game changer!

[@mannys9130]

This is so funny. About a week ago I cut a vine off and decided to try propagating 3 leaf-less vine sections anyway to see if they'll work. I used the bottle of water method and they are growing new buds and roots as we speak. One has a new leaf coming in underwater right now that is getting bigger every day. I may need to cut that particular one in half and make 2 to get that new leaf out of the water. Something in my gut tells me the new foliage won't like being submerged, but I don't know that for a fact. I also took the short bottom section of the vine I cut off with its already established roots, and I put it in a bottle of water as well. I rinsed off the soil from the roots and I added just a bit of liquid fertilizer to try and give the roots nutrients to absorb and start the growing process. It is also doing great at the moment. It has 2 new vine/leaf buds growing. :) I hope everything survives the propagation and transplant process so that the original pothos pot will look lush and full with a bunch of hanging vines.

[@TechplantChannel]

Nice work, the new growth can handle being under water for a little bit but after too long it might get soggy and rot off. Good job and keep up the good work!

[@valmz6]

so all you need is a water bottle & fertilizer to do this? :)

[@mannys9130]

@@valmz6 Yep! You don't even need the fertilizer. I was just experimenting to see if it helped or hurt. You really just need a clean blade or scissors, a bottle or cup of clean water, and a place to put them with some filtered sunlight. Use drinking water, distilled water, or RO water if possible because tap water's chlorine can hurt some sensitive plants. In my city our tap water is super hard and chlorinated so I filter the water through a Pur faucet filter.

Letting tap water sit in a bowl overnight allows the chlorine to evaporate. Then use the water the next day. Cheaper than my RO or distilled.

[@RosalineDjayasukmana]

​@@michaelspltwrng If you want to put in in sphagnum, I suggest pluck the dead leaves. If you want to keep it in water, it would need the at least 1 *functioning* leaf to grow roots. The brown stem happens sometimes with water propagation. From my experience it should be fine as long as the node and the part above the node looks healthy.
