Thanks! And thank you for all of the guidance. I don’t have a greenthumb naturally.
Can you tell if sprouting part of the smallest one is a stem or root? It’s not coming out of the root node so I assume it is a stem. But wouldn’t it want to grow a root first? I can use some bread ties to keep that part out of water.
If you feel comfortable with it, could we connect with Element or SimpleX or your preferred messenger? I’d really love to learn more as I go. I have plans to plant lentils, grape vines, and a Lapins cherry tree. There is just so much information on the Internet that it’s hard to pick a strategy sometimes.
I'm happy to help =D
As for the small guy, it's tough to say... Pothos leaves grow from other leaf stems but this section doesn't have one. I do see a darker spot on the new growth, but can't say what's really growing there.
You should post your questions here on this comm! I check Beehaw regularly, but there are a whole bunch of helpful folks who frequent this space.
That’s true. I suppose others can benefit from seeing the questions and thought processes.
Side note, I was told this was an Algerian vine, but now that I see you say Pothos and looked that up, it does appear to be a Pothos.
