Also habe ich dieses Pathos, das ich im September propagiert habe und meine Mutter im Jahr wegen des Colleges gegangen ist, aber er hat keine neuen Blätter gewachsen und jetzt wird einer seiner Blätter gelb. Seine Wurzeln sind sehr lang. Was ist der beste Weg, um ihn in den Boden zu verpflanzen? Was für einen Boden soll ich verwenden? Trein ich die Wurzeln? Ich möchte wissen, wie man ihn am Leben hält, es ist mir sehr wichtig. Vielen Dank an alle, die helfen können !!!

Put it in soil? Give it some nutrients?
Just basic indoor potting mix will do. Find a pot with drainage that will fit all the roots (no need to trim) and cover with soil. Water the soil thru and let it drain. Looks like it could use more light.
A betta in there would feed him. These plants are great in water but they still need some kind of fertilizer. It’ll starve in JUST water. I’d put a betta and a snail. (Then a bigger tank, and a family of guppies, and more plants and moss, and then shrimp. Then a monstera)
Put another pothos prop in there it’ll start going to town within days. They put off a ton of rooting hormone. Anything that you want to start rooting fast in water, just add pothos… even if it’s adding pothos to pothos.
When transferring a pothos from water to soil, I use a fast draining soil mix. At least soil and perlite in a 50-50 mix, although soil, perlite, and orchid bark in an equal mix is better. I don’t use any particular brand of soil, just whatever is cheapest at the time. For the first couple of weeks, try to keep the soil consistently moist. After that, let the soil dry between waterings. You can also embrace the water and just leave it in there. I have several pothos that have been in water for going on 2 years. I add 1/4 strength water soluble 10-10-10 fertilizer every 3 months. Followed the next week by a splash of hydrogen peroxide to take care of the inevitable algae bloom that comes from fertilizing. I was admiring the new growth this morning and I am behind on my fertilizer schedule.
I have seen people say to add soil to the water that the plant is in to aclimate it to the nutrients in the soil. And give it (a few days?) I do t k ow how long. But after a while it should transplant to the dirt easier.
Also it looks like it hasn’t put out new leaves because it’s been working on its roots like crazy.
Give that baby some sun and nutrients!!
Plant him in soil and fertilize!
Stick it in soil, make sure to keep it really wet for the first week or so to let the roots ajust, but you will be amazed at how fast it will start growing.
I had “inherited” a pothos that has been a water prop for about 2 and a half years in the office (it wasn’t growing, was down to 2 yellowed leaves and looking very miserable, looooong roots though). Transferred it to soil (wihtout much hope of survival), it had 4 new leaves within the first month!
