i think my spider plant have been growing a lil but idk u guys will see new pics of it soon

Thank you Brook, I don't know how much you know about the science of plants. During the day we humans breathe in oxygen and breathe out carbon dioxide. The plants need the carbon dioxide and turn it into oxygen for us to breathe. Many plants take bad stuff out of the air like formaldehyde, acetone, toluene and other stuff I can't remember. (Rick is very knowledgeable on chemistry.) These things come into the air on new clothing, paint, and clothes that are dry cleaned in addition to many other ways. Spider plants are well known for cleaning the air and Pothos is at the top of the list too. There are some good youtube videos on this.

Just don't do what I did which is to care for them so much that I ended up killing them in the process. It will take a good month or so before you know if they are making progress. There is also time lapse photography of plants growing on youtube. It is kind of fun to watch.

i do look on youtube to know about plant and more thank u for your help

You can also just grow a pothos in a pretty bottle of water --- no soil. Every once in a while give it a hint, just a hint of water soluble fertilizer & make sure the water is over the roots.

i got some in water right now when it gets roots how long do i keep it in there or can i keep it in there forever lol

If you want to grow them in water you can just simply leave them in the water forever. Well, that's relative --- as it grows you would need to move it up to a larger bottle or cut it back but they will grow in water alone.

The water does tend to get rather green, tho. Who, me? I've never forgotten one in water...nope...never!

wow i did not know that im going to keep it in there about a month or so lol anything more u know about them or spider plants

i will just have to give it more water when that happens lol how much do i cut the roots back

Well, yeh, it does help to dump the water out & change it about once a week.

the ones i have in water now i clean it ones a week ...... how much do i cut the roots back

brookbenge said:i will just have to give it more water when that happens lol how much do i cut the roots back

You would want to cut both the roots & the foliage back but I've seen them in bottles of water where they had so many roots it was a knotted mess you couldn't even get out of the neck of the bottle so it will take quite some time before yours gets to that point.

maybe one day ill get alot of roots so when the roots start to get long i cut them some not a lot just some right

Right.

thank u anything more i need to know

Nope. Not from me.

Pothos are almost indestructible, I swear. I had one in a too small pot, stuffed in a corner where I forgot to water it, and just figured it was dead. I happened to spill some water into the pot when I was watering a plant next to it, and next thing I knew, the darn thing was growing again!

the one i have my mom had it she gave it to me it was about died now look at it

Someone gave me a plant like that, once, to grow in water.

I put it into a big glass peanut butter jar and gave it a big drink, but then like Woofie's plant, "out of sight, out of mind"

The next time I looked, it had lots of roots, but it had drunk all the water! I was sure it was dead and just LOOKED well-preserved, but I gave it more water anyway.

Back from the dead. Lazarus plant.
