Steps for Propagating Pothos satinie (Cuttings)

For best results when using cuttings, follow these steps:

Taking the cutting: Cut a stem approximately 10-15 cm long, ensuring the cut passes just below a node. The node is the point where leaves and aerial roots emerge, and it is essential for the growth of a new plant.

Preparing the cutting: Remove the lower leaves (1-3 leaves) from the base of the cutting, ensuring no leaves are submerged in the water or soil, only the stem nodes.

Rooting in water:

- Place the cutting in a container of water, ensuring the lower nodes are submerged.

- Change the water regularly to keep it clean.
- Roots will begin to appear within 2-3 weeks.

Rooting in soil:
- Plant the cutting directly into moist, well-draining soil.

- You can use pegs or a pin to secure the nodes to the soil surface to ensure contact.
- Keep the soil consistently moist. Evenly distributed, but avoid overwatering.

Tips for Cutting Care

- Lighting: Place the cutting in a location with bright, indirect light.

Avoid direct sunlight, which can burn the young cutting.

- Humidity: The plant prefers a humid environment, so mist the cutting regularly.

- Transplanting: When transplanting the roots into soil, ensure you use a pot with drainage holes to prevent root rot.
