- Disclaimer Placing a plank in soil will cause the wood to eventually rot. As an alternative, you can place a plank outside of the pot and it will work the same.
How to get larger leaves on pothos plants is the goal for this year. I add some wood planks into the pot for aerial roots to grab onto and promote upward growth. Hope you like this video!

Break given 😂 I love that you don’t edit that out because that’s REAL… it helps so much to watch others thought processes. To see someone work through possibilities, issues, etc. Love your videos!
I appreciate that!
First, your editing has come up! Second, I like that you’re using smaller pots, cuttings and planks for this project. I don’t have a lot of space but I’m going to try this with the thinner planks in a row like you have it. It’ll be interesting to see the updates. 👍🏾
Thanks Theresa. Space is a premium at my house as well.

I want to try and experiment with a thicker wood dowel and see if something will root to that.
Plank growing is the best. I use Caitlin’s grow in water method. I put a plastic pot and plank separately in a basket so it looks good but the wood doesn’t rot.
That’s a beautiful, large leaf healthy cutting. You’ll probably get really big leaves when it takes.
Thanks Jeff!
I thought about placing the plank outside the pot, but figured it will take a long time to rot...I like the look of it in the pot for now. I may alter this down the road with something like you do. Thanks!
@@EverythingPlants Snce you have it in soil, that’s true. Water is another story. 😂

I love the noise of the potting mix bag and the noise made from the trail and soil scoop....ect....when I repot at home, which I did so many yesterday on the kitchen floor, I said this would have made a great repotting video!....so relaxing with the music and planting noises! Love these videos.....love Catlins videos too! Have a nice day! Finished pots look super great, all 4 of them.....spray bottle works nice too!
Thanks Justina! I also watching these types of videos as well!
I look forward to seeing an update on these plants. I might have to put one of my Pothos on one. Great video is always Jeff.
Thanks Maureen 👍
I have my pothos plants on a pole. They are doing great
Getting bigger leaves too?
this is the only video i really like of all i watch today! he made sure to mention many many times the watering or keeping the plant damp for two while growing! other video didnt mention how to water or when to water after planting! clap clap to this guy! im subscribing!
Thanks for subscribing and hope to see you in more comments! 👋
YEY!!! They look so cute 😍😍 can’t wait to see the progress 🥰🌱
I'm excited as well. Thanks for watching Caitlin!
Love your plant channel, spraying your with water when you come on, placement of your plants and you a detailed instructions on how to care for your plants or and replant them. I also love the fact that you include your dogs in your plant show. Keep up the excellent work.
Thanks so much Juanita!
Cant wait to see the updates I have one of my Mican on a plant and a few others thank you for sharing.
I should totally add a micans to a plank too. How is yours doing?
Hey Jeff. I am excited to see how big the leaves will get. Looking great so far!
Thanks Milena. I hope they grow fast!
I started some plank plants, what a great idea she had!
Wonderful!
That was fun to watch! Looking forward to the updates!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks Brigitte!
Just watched Caitlin’s videos. Can’t wait to try this method. Thanks for the great video.
Thanks Lorri!
Grow grow grow.
Hopefully it grows fast! LOL
I’m so excited about this technique. This is going to be one of my goals for the next year!
It is pretty fun to see the grow!
Love this idea with the potho. Wish I had space and lighting to do this. Looking forward to seeing them get hugh.
There is always room for more plants Rhonda! LOL
Thank you for this video 💓. Can't wait to see them grow!!!!🤩😍.
Thanks Kimberly!
Excellent timing I'm doing this today to my beautiful Hawaii potho 😁🌱💯🪴💚
I completely forgot to show my Hawaiin growing up a moss pole. It os a smaller one, but it is gorgeous.
Love this idea! I have just begun my plant journey and now today we picked up a pothos at Trader Joe’s and he was so excited to place it! I find it to be very cathartic during the winter months…its calming to see life in our home outside of the six of us….
Hey Robin! Plant add a certain clamp factor to a home....at least I find it does. Welcome to the plant community!

Thank you! I love seeing your process and I have planks from a Ikea twin bed I plan to use for my project.
They are so useful hahaha
Thank you for sharing beautiful and amazing plants collection lovely I love watching your videos have a blessed day
Thanks so much Jullian.
I got one pothos on small shim pice of wood some time ago. I can't believe how big leaves are, I would say at least 3 times bigger. I have to put it on bigger plank.
Yours are done properly from beginning and they will be growing great. Thank you for sharing 😊
Thanks for sharing, Grace!

Hi, how can i switch the wood if the pothos is attached to it by the air roots?
Great idea. Looking forward to watching their progress.
Thanks Karen!

Timely video!! I saw some planks at the dollarama that i wanted to buy for this project yesterday. and Bam here u go with a lil tutorial! I have 4 Pothos and 2 of them are trailing. Id like to chop and prop some for my mom and also plank it up to make more room in my small house :)
It is a great project of small spaces! If you are worried about the wood rotting in the soil, just ace it outside the pot....Even just lean it against the wall.
Yep..that method does work. I have several of my pothos growing up on a board. Looking forward to seeing how your pothos turned out. Thanks for sharing.
Did you have to repot any of your pothos while it climbed the plank?
@@EverythingPlants no. I did not. I just put it up and wrapped it. They are doing great!!
@@EverythingPlants Nope, I just stuck the pole behind the plant and wrapped it up.
Great video! I need to try this with pothos!
You should! I want it to grow fast lol
Great video
I will have to try!
Good luck, Jennifer!
I've been wanting to do this as well I just need to get something to seal the lower piece of wood to keep it from rotting. I can't wait to see how well yours grow. Thanks for sharing.
You can always keep the stick outside of the pot if you are concerned about the plank rotting.
You gave me a good idea. I also want to tell you that I enjoy your videos.
Aww...thanks Clara!
I think my favorite is pothos in all shades. It's the simplicity of the plant I'm not always successful transfering cuts from water to soil- they going brown on me. I have pothos that was born in 1990!!! I'll try the plank method. Have a lot of cuttings in the water. Nice video
Good luck with your plank project and keep me posted with how it goes!
Interesting i will try
All the best
Gotta do this. I have a pothos on a moss pole. I don't like the look. The planks look so attractive. Thanks Jeff! Video was amazing!
I agree....I like the plank look as well!
On the clay pots, my mother always soaked them about 15minutes before potting to ensure that the pots were saturated and wouldn't soak up the water in the soil.
Yes! I do this as well.....I can't remember if I did it in this video or not. I have shown it in other videos! Thanks for the reminder that I showed show this more often.
I bought a pothos with leaves the size of my hands. I want to try one of each variety to see how big the leaves can get.
Wow!!! That is amazing. You are off to a great start with huge leaves to begin with.
Whenever I make a cut right before potting I dip in cinnamon mix with root hormone just to help cover an I've never had an issue and I'm pretty Impatient when it comes to waiting for them to callus
I have heard many people do this, but have never tried it myself. Thanks for the tip!
I Purchased A Bunch Of Pothos I Have Rooting-Up Because I Wanted To See Some Bigger Pothos Leaves. They Are The Ones Called The Hawaiian Pothos That Can Grow Huge Leaves AND Of Course Are Tropically Beautiful!!! The Cuttings I Got DIDN'T Come With Huge Leaves... BUT I Had Planned To Stake Them Up To Make That HAPPEN!!! I've Always Grown Pothos As Trailing Plants BUT This Year POTHOS Can Definitely Walk The Plank For ME!!! See Ya Next Video E.P.!!!
I've always had trailing pothos too, so I'm excited for this little project. Good luck with yours!
Once those pathos have grown up the planks will they ever need repotting into a larger pot?
I'm going to say as the leaves get larger, so will the roots. I am fully expecting to have to repot it into something larger down the road.
Good job. To save yourself some time; I soak my Terra Cotta pots before I start, sometimes overnight.
Thanks for the tip!
Yes! I always soak mine too
Hey there. Love your content. Curious if you supply extra humidity to your plants on planks. Do you what the humidity is where they are grown?
Hey Kris. I have 2 humidifiers downstairs, but a ways away from the planks. I try and keep the humidity around 50%.
I enjoy watching your channel! Question, the pots seemed small to me for the size of the planks you used. Will the plants need to be repotted before they reach the top of the boards? Thanks.
Most likely need to be repotted but I'm okay with this....if you pot up too large to start with then the more soil you have there it retains moisture. I don't want my cuttings to rot, plus pothos tend to prefer a nice snug pot lol. Hope this answers your question.
That’s a great idea…and I’ve been thinking a couple of my pothos need a trim. I have some long cebu blue props in water and another new nice full 4” pot that may need uppotting soon. I think cebu blue is taking over my house 😂 they love to climb, trail and propagate. Check Techplant on utube for giant pothos prop….unreal!
I just watched that video too. That node was HUGE!
What size pot are you using?
We want an update
Okay, hopefully coming soon!
I think this looks a bit nicer than a regular pole. Almost like Scandinavian minimalism in appearance.
I agree. I prefer the plank over the moss pole!
Has there been an update video to these pothos?
Not yet, but hopefully in a month or two
I have a few small pots of established cuttings. Can I simply add a plank to those pots or maybe repot with a plank? Or is this project best when using newer cuttings?
You can add a plank or even just leave it outside the pot (leaning against the wall) and just secure the cuttings to the plank. That way you don't have to disturb the plant at all and it should be ready for new growth as spring approaches!
I have all my pothos growing up my walls lol
Just the wall or on a plank too?
@@EverythingPlants mostly just the wall! I have a few on planks and a few on moss poles too
First I've learned most of my gardening skills from my grandmother. She used mostly clay/terracotta pots always wiped the inside of pots with bees wax put them in the hot sun
This will help to hold in the moisture, will also help to reduce the white marks on the outside of the pots. By slowing down the absorbency of the pots they will last much longer, especially if you have large pots that you leave outside all year, slowing down cracking due to expansion in the cold
Next I was always told that you should NEVER! put a propagated plant that was rooted in water into dry soil She would always have moist/almost wet soil available. She also used wood (usually from the wood pile) but always! Soaked it for several days before using it for climbing/trailing plants. She was a bissy lady, didn't have time to constantly mist/ water plants but she always had the most amazing gardens! NOW I DO TO!
What are the dimensions of the planks?
On the first pot you potted up when you watered it you said it wasn't draining will you might have put the plank over the drainage hole.
Some new soil, every once in awhile, is hydrophobic. It will eventually soak up the moisture....it just takes awhile. Water did come out the drain hole 🕳
Wow that first pothos cutting is beautiful! I was wondering if these wood planks would rot?
Eventually it will. You can also keep the planks outside of the pot (find a way to attach it to the pot) or just lean them up against the wall.
oooh good point! I didnt even think of that, maybe can treat it with something like a wood sealer or something? Thanks for pointing that out!
I wonder if there's a safe way to treat the wood that won't hurt the plants maybe? I like that idea of attaching it outside the pot, thanks Jeff
I like the way you set the pots up side by side.
Plz update this video
When the plant grows I 100% will update!
What is the size of the stake? 2x4 or 1x3? Does it sit completely in the base of the planter?
Yes I believe they are 1x3 and the plank is placed all the way to the bottom of the pot for stability. These are bed slat planks that I repurposed for plants lol
May I know the thickness of the wood planks?
This one I think is about 3 inches wide
Did you see my instagram post? It will be fun to watch them grow up their poles. My Target had Trending Tropicals on Friday. They never had live plants there before. I came home with a pothos that was a light green blotches on dark green. I do not have this variety so it came home with me. They also had a Dotty Calathea, a fern and an aglaonema that I should have taken home as well.
Hey Lisa...I can't find your post. Sounds like you got a global green pothos!
@@EverythingPlants yes I thought that is what it might me. Nice full plant. I sent you a message on facebook. I know that venue much better than insatram. I hope you get this message.
So what keeps the plank from rotting?
It will rot eventually. You can use a stonger wood like cedar or just place the plank outside of the pot. I choose to place it inside as I think it looks cleaner/organized.
💚💚
👍
Please, can you tell me what the plant is called that you “pointed” to at 10:02. Right when you say comment down below.
Philodendron Birkin!
@@EverythingPlants Thank you so much!
Hi everyone 👋
This video has become 1 Year old so I don't know that I will get reply or not but I actually want to know the soil mix used in the pot. If anyone is having clarity on this please do reply & thanks in advance😊
In the video I use a mix between promix tropical soil with a bit of extra perlite
What kind of wood plank can you use?
I think cedar would take longer to rot, but if you are concerned about that then place the plank just outside the pot.
thank you
Does it matter what wood is used?
They say cedar is one of the better types as it doesn't decompose as fast as some other woods like pine haha.
You can also keep the plank out of the pot if you are concerned about the wood rotting.
Are these under 100% grow light light? IE no natural light?
Yup! All growlights!
@@EverythingPlants that’s awesome! I’ve been told plants can’t survive in just grow lights. However, I’m sure the quality of the light is a huge factor!
@@chandell9545 They are all doing so great! They get consistent light and are always putting out new growth
