Water

Changing the water once every 3-5 days is crucial. Keep a tab on the color – if it looks cloudy, change it immediately. Keep the tap water overnight in a bucket before using, as it will help to settle down the excess chlorine in water.

Temperature

Pothos in Water does best in the temperature range of 20° to 32°C.

Fertilizer

Feed the plant with a good quality all-purpose, liquid fertilizer every 4-6 weeks. Add half a teaspoon into 2 liters of water and use it on the plant.

Pro Tip: You can put 2-3 drops of hydrogen peroxide in the water. It will further oxygenate it and will also prevent fungal attacks.

Cleaning

Transparent glass jars are better as it helps you monitor the growth and condition of water easily. Over time, the glass may get a layer of calcium so it is essential that you keep 2 glass jars to grow pothos in water. Use them alternatively. Clean the jars using a cotton cloth and soap to get rid of algae formation.


Things to Keep in Mind While Growing Pothos in Water

  1. Avoid placing the plant in direct sunlight or next to an AC vent.
  2. Remove the leaves that may get into the vase as it may result in fungal infections.
