Generally, the rooting powder is used to soak the pothos for about 6-8 hours, and the effect of a long time or a short time is not significant. Before soaking, it should be diluted according to the appropriate proportion, so the effect will be better. When cutting, you should first cut off a strong branch, with the bottom slanting, leaving two leaves at the top. Prepare a clean substrate or hydroponic container, soak it in rooting water and insert it.

I. Bogen time

The time of rooting powder soaking is generally 6-8 hours, and the longer the time is, the shorter the time is, the less the effect is. After soaking, normal cutting is OK. Before use, the rooting powder water will be diluted with water, and the proportion is 1:10. After the action of rooting powder, the plant will take root in a faster time.

2. Cutting method

1. Select the cuttings: the cuttings of the pothos should use the strong branches. After selection, use the scissors to check. There should be at least two bud points on the branches. The length of branches can be between 10-15cm, not too long

2. Processing of cuttings: after cutting, the bottom of the cuttings shall be obliquely cut, and the leaves at the bottom shall also be cut. Only the two leaves at the top can be left, so as to avoid wasting unnecessary nutrients.

3. Prepare pot soil or hydroponics container: if you want soil culture, you should first prepare the sterilized soil. Hydroponics should be prepared in transparent containers, and into the right amount of water.

4. Cutting: the treated cuttings should be soaked in the rooting water, then inserted into the substrate or hydroponic container, placed in the place with astigmatism, waiting for rooting.
