Make sure you have REALLY good drainage. Don’t water too often. 😊

@kulotkayla Hi Micky! I have always planted my pothos in soil after they are well rooted. They are a climbing plant and will probably do much better in soil. I’m no professional though that is just my experience. Pothos love a good organic soil and they love to dry out between waterings! I let mine dry out completely. Maybe someone else can give you some hydro advice. I suggest planting it but let’s see what others will say! Good Luck! 🪴🌺🌸
