Watering

Watered on 2026-09-16.

Watering, fertilized with Hnojík

Watered. Slightly damp at the bottom. Fertilized with Hnojík insect frass.

Watering interval revised for soil stage

wateringIntervalDays changed from 5 to 8, wateringCue updated to the soil-stage cue. The 5-day figure was the water-propagation jar-change cadence, which stopped applying once potted into soil today. No soil-watering gaps are logged yet to measure from, so 8 is a starting estimate from the midpoint of the previously noted 7–10 day range for this plant once in soil - to be revisited once a few real gaps are logged.

Potted into soil after water propagation

Named: Moria – Epipremnum aureum is native to Mo'orea, French Polynesia.

Mix: researched 2:1:1 ratio, as planned.

  • Pothos mix – 2 parts
  • Pine bark 5-15mm – 1 part
  • Pumice 3-7mm – 1 part

Perlite visible in the mix is from the bagged Pothos mix itself, not added separately.

Done: potted into a 9cm plastic nursery pot, watered to settle the soil.

Setup: nursery pot sits inside a decorative cachepot on a keramzit riser layer; the cachepot has its own drainage holes.

Water changed, willow water added

Water changed in the shared propagation jar, willow water added. 7 days since the last change on Aug 19 – a couple days over the 5-day interval.

Roots long and healthy, nearly ready to pot

Roots now long and well developed. Nearly ready to move to soil.

Roots emerging at a lower node; adjacent node trimmed

Two roots emerging from one node – one thicker and cream colored, one thinner. Adjacent node has been trimmed, no roots there. Leaf petioles above look firm.

Water changed, willow water added

Water changed in the shared propagation jar. 400 ml distilled water with 5 droppers of willow water. 6 days since the last change on Aug 13.

Water changed, willow water added

Water changed in the shared propagation jar. Mix: 50/50 boiled-and-cooled water to distilled water, ~400 ml total, with 5 droppers of willow water. 5 days since the last change on Aug 3 – on schedule.

Water changed, willow water added

Water changed in the shared propagation jar. 3 droppers of willow water into ~0.4 L of fresh water. On schedule – 5 days since the last change on Jul 29.

Roots developing well in shared jar

Both cuttings sharing the jar and rooting steadily. Pothos node fully submerged with a thick root cluster and visible root branching. Water clear, no cloudiness or slime. Leaves firm and glossy, no yellowing.

Rooting well; sharing jar with Philodendron Brasil

Thick, longer roots developing – ahead of the Brasil in root development. Now sharing the same propagation jar with the Brasil cutting.

Water changed every 5 days with willow water added. Target: soil once roots are strong, into 10cm pot first.

Water changed, willow water added

Water changed in the propagation jar. Added willow water as a rooting supplement to help strengthen root growth.

Acquired as cutting from office, water propagation started

Stem cutting taken from office plant collection (with permission). Placed in water to propagate.
