If youre looking for how to propagate the Satin Pothos or the Scindapsus Pictus Argyraeus, this guide will walk you through cutting and rooting your plant. There are many videos out there sharing two different ways of water propagating this easy growing vining plant. I investigate both ways and decide which way is the fastest most effective way to propagate your plant.

Of course I'm watching this the day after taking single leaf cuttings from one of my scindapsus

@Aura983 2 года назад

I tried two single leaf cuttings directly in soil. One took quickly, the other started to shrivel... Then roots started forming and I have a 100% success rate!

@KillThisPlant 2 года назад

That's great. I wish I had more success with soil props

@kfox11 4 месяца назад

Wow! Thanks for this. I have NEVER successfully propped a scindapsus. Time to try again!

@shanrrosh Год назад

I think we all have different experiences with the same plants. I do use single leaf cuttings, as I don't feel like I am in a hurry to grow the plant as long as the plant turns out to be strong, healthy with a lot of bushy growth. 50 days in water seems like way too long for me though. I don't want my cuttings to produce "water" roots as from experience, it takes a lot longer for the roots to adapt to soil afterwards. I let them sit in water just for long enough to get the roots poking out of the nodes, and then transfer them directly into the pot with soil I intend for them to grow. I will make sure to keep the soil wet for the first week or so, which lets the roots get a good hold and start taking up nutrients so that new leaves and roots start developing faster. Just one experience vs other experiences :)

@plantsandspreadsheets Год назад

I like this tip and will try. If you’re adding these to an existing plant pot, do you still keep it very wet and how does the mother plant handle this

@shanrrosh Год назад

@@plantsandspreadsheets If you are placing the cuttings in the same pot as the mother plant, then I would make sure it's a plant that handles having wet roots well. If not, then I would not advise doing that and rather place the cuttings in a pot of their own. Spider plant and pothos seems like plants who can handle wet roots really well, for example

@plantsandspreadsheets Год назад

Yeah that makes total sense. Should totally have known that. Another question. Do these guys root well if I place the node directly in soil? Not as fast but do they survive and eventually root? Such a pretty plant but such a drama queen ( meaning she’s lazy).

@shanrrosh Год назад

@@plantsandspreadsheets Actually, I have a plant that I did this with to the cutting and it worked very well. I just made sure the soil was dripping wet as the cutting was cut into 3 single leaf cuttings, which I have then cut down into a new single leaf cutting and replanted as it grew, to make for a more bushy plant, and it has worked really well for me.

@plantsandspreadsheets Год назад

@@shanrrosh thanks planty friend. Wouldn’t it be great to attach pictures. I’d love to see yours. Was it a scindapsus? The node just barely covered with the leaf and stem straight up not touching the soil at all, right?

@martar.8095 3 года назад

The root rot on cuttings is what made me change from water to perlite as my rooting substrate. I’ve noticed thicker, faster rooting in perlite, specially if the particles are big (I guess it’s because it allows more air flow to enter the roots). I’ve taken four cuttings from my Scindapsus, and they’ve all rooted nicely, but one of them had an unfurling leaf who sadly died before even opening up. All I’ve used is tap water with no rooting agent, perlite works wonders for me. I’ll soon try sphagnum moss tho!

@KillThisPlant 3 года назад

Perlite and sphagnum moss are great alternatives. Ive had more luck with sphagnum moss than Perlite but I think I just need more practice Thanks for the comment!

@aspirativemusicproduction2135 Год назад

That's exactly the answer I was looking for. Currently I am trying to root Monstera Peru in a big glass jar with perlite. If it works I'll stick with this method.I am tired of getting my cuttings to rot. And water propagation works well for my mint but scindapsus roots are too sensitive. I don't want water roots. They are probably not transitioning to well into soil. The more I mess with the roots on scindapsus the more they die.

@hennesseyme9112 2 месяца назад

I use Fluval because it's the only thing that works which hasn't failed me. Even moss does produce good results for me.

@Soluvly09 3 дня назад

Perfect video!! Thanks for all the tips!

@KweenAshuntae 2 года назад

I felt that "new videos everytime I buy a new plant" pitch. I need to be that dedicated myself

@katxgarden8431 2 года назад

This video was very helpful. Next time I will try the double leaf method. I wish I would’ve watched this beforehand lol.

@tutips7365 27 дней назад

This was the most helpful video I have watched in a while. Thank you for taking the time to make this with all the updates and not inserting extra word salad. Subscribed! Just bought a new Scindapsus today from Lowes. It was on the clearance rack. It was looking pretty bad, but after getting it home and cleaning it up, it looks pretty good! Here's to hoping I don't kill this one!

@cixeau2449 2 года назад

hello from south africa! lol this is the one plant i had that i thought would be easy. it looks easy! but it stumped me every time! i nearly gave up. ive clipped the boi down and the cuttings i took and put in my moms garden as an experiment. so waiting for new leaves and growth and I will then try this for the last time. its the kind of hack that sounds like a fairy tale or old wives tale

@writegirl2937 2 года назад

Hi Lee! Your plants are always lovely! However, for the life of me, I cannot seem to root Scindapsus cuttings! I have tried water, Perlite, and even Sphagnum Moss with no success. And I have killed a few of them by over-watering. I recently bought two new ones, so I am going to try again, because I do love the Scindapsus plants!

@shesothorny9892 3 года назад

damn, you always release a video that is exactly what I need. Thanks for being awesome and helpful!!

@KillThisPlant 3 года назад

Great timing. Thanks for watching and commenting. Appreciate ya!

@OleanderSmoothie Год назад

I received a satin pothos cutting but it only had one leaf on it (the ends of the vines of the main plant had gotten too long, I think, and had stopped producing leaves). I put it in water until the roots were long enough before transferring it to soil. Without an active growth point, it wasn't making any new leaves, so I cut the end off. It has now started a new growth point from the last node. Once it has grown out enough, I will definitely be using the two-leaf clipping method you illustrated!

@_pipsissewa Год назад

I'll try your double leaf method! Thanks for sharing!

@KillThisPlant Год назад

Good luck!

@Scarfgirl 2 года назад

I've been growing my Argyraeus from a single leaf/node/root. The plant's growing great, but I am not having any luck with propagation. The cuttings don't die, but they never form roots. I've tried water prop. and a forsythe pot. My Scindapsus Pictus 'Silver Queen' never has this problem. I'll try the double node/single leaf method next. Hope it turns out better. Thanks for the video.

@hwilson8572 10 месяцев назад

Thanks, very informative!

@LoveToday8 2 года назад

I just transferred a cutting to dirt today. Fingers crossed 🤞🏾

@KillThisPlant 2 года назад

Best of luck!

@torianichole831 2 года назад

I just did the single leaf propagation last night. I wish I saw this method then 😔

@KillThisPlant 2 года назад

I'm sure they will still root for you!

@josephlangefeld8938 Год назад

You had one by itself in a jelly jar... and then three in the other. Of those, there's a clear winner, runner-up and a Plant Congeniality. Just like if they were on the same plant, one has been chosen to succeed, one to fail and another in between. Also, I say the experiment was not properly conducted - the three in one jar were sharing the oxygen in the water. I want to try it with each being in its own jar and see if we can't get more stable results.

@UncleBank 2 года назад

Apart from water, I also like to propagate them in sphagnum moss and perlite and put them in a bag.

@KillThisPlant 2 года назад

Those are great options too.

@plantsandspreadsheets Год назад

What do you mean put them in a bag? Are they in a container with water then a bag on top? Is it sealed?

@UncleBank Год назад

@@plantsandspreadsheets I put them in a zipped lock bag but lately I find its more convenient to put them in a clear plastic container, so I can put multiple pots in one

@ariadna8711 Год назад

add plant food (liquidirt) also spagnum moss is better than just water

@petecilione4166 3 года назад

I never have but when I do I use the double leaf method. Thanks.

@KillThisPlant 3 года назад

Hope it works well for you.

@161anakaren 2 года назад

Thanks I’ve only propagated Hoyas and they always rot and now I want to propagate my scindapsus ann and exotica hopefully it works I’m not good at propagation if this works I’ll post it here in a few months thanks for the tips

@KillThisPlant 2 года назад

best of luck!

@brittneyharrell3224 Год назад

Did it work??

@madelinestecher 2 года назад

have you done a video on water prop. vs. moss propagation?

@KillThisPlant 2 года назад

Not yet! Something I'm working on.

@user-jk9jw6zy4n 11 месяцев назад

I got a couple small cuttings from a friend and rooted them in water. After about 6 weeks the roots are long and thick. Most roots are black though. I am ready to plant them in soil now and didnt think twice about it until i watched your video. Are you saying black roots are bad? Ill wait to hear from you before i plant them... Newly Concerned...

@KillThisPlant 11 месяцев назад

The black roots were all fine, I don't know why they were like that.

@fr3nchy485 Год назад

I am trying to water propagate and the leaves are wilting! Not sure what I did wrong!

How long does it take to get leafs ?

@ayuismail4899 2 года назад

Lucky me found this video before do the propagation cutting for my scindapsus pictus tomorrow! Thankyou!❤️🪴

@KillThisPlant 2 года назад

Best of luck

@comedywhacked 2 года назад

Why not allow for multiple roots AND nodes? :) That's what I'm doing presently

@KillThisPlant 2 года назад

When more of the actual stem is under the soil you run an increased risk of rotting the stem of your plant. Ideally you want as little stem under the soil as possible. So one node with roots would generally reduce that risk.
