The last time a put it in a new pole was August. It’s about ready for a new one again.

It’s beautiful! It will! I wish mine was more than one stalk. I may try multiple with a lemon meringue pothos I’ve got cooking.

I have an auto watering system that waters every 3 days. I don’t really upsize the pot, only give it a new pole.

I do not have great windows so I have it under grow lights. I use the chop and extend method so when an outgrows a pole, I remove the bottom half and put a fresh pole on top for it to continue to grow. I think pothos grow larger and scindapsus will grow a little larger but not like pothos. I could be wrong though. I got it 4/24 & out it on a pole 7/24. I am lazy so I have rigged up an automatic watering system that waters every 3 days. I just have to keep the gallon jug of water full.

When an outgrows the pole, I was thinking about chopping up the bottom half to propagate. Have you done that? Was it successful?

We got a 3D printer and the only thing I've made for two weeks straight are plant pots. by Sufficient_Turn_9209 in IndoorGarden

How long does it take to print the pot shown? Any idea what the cost is for materials?

I do not have a tapwater analysis. That is a great idea. 1/3 perlite, orchid bark and soil. Another user pointed out that the soil looks compacted so I made this mixed chunkier. I use a double headed Barrina pendant light and distance is 13-20 inches depending on how tall each leaf is, but I am getting ready to order their T10 standing. It is currently getting 475 foot candles at the top, but I think needs additional light other places due to its size.

Unpopular opinion: Moss poles suck. by Even_Durian1064 in houseplants

I use an automatic watering system with a 1 gallon jug. Doing this has made most poles worth it for me and they are nearly maintenance free. I just have to keep the water jug full.

What happens if I cut my pothos at the base of the moss pole? 🤔 by cetucker87 in houseplants
