To encourage more vines on your Pothos plant, you can use several methods:
1. Pruning and Propagation:
Take stem cuttings: Cut a section of vine that includes at least one node (the bump where a leaf or root emerges).
Root cuttings: Place the cuttings in water or directly into moist soil to encourage root development.
Replant cuttings: Once rooted (if in water), plant the cuttings back into the same pot as the mother plant or in a new pot to create a fuller appearance.
2. Coiling the Vine: Gently coil the existing long vine around the inside of the pot, ensuring the nodes are in contact with the soil. Will make your Golden Pothos plant fuller you can increase the density of the foliage and create a fuller-looking plant, either way and both is simple πŸ‘ŒπŸ½ good luck πŸ‘πŸ½
I would probably prune back your plant and propogate the cuttings. Pruning will encourage your plant to grow more, and then once your cuttings grow their own roots, I'd plant them in that same planter to fill the pot.
I've also seen others wind their longer bare vines into the pot to let the nodes on them take root encouraging growth. Ive never tried it though.
I have done the winding thing and it works great but I suggest that you use hair pins or something similar to keep them in place so when you’re watering them they don’t move and it gives them time to root.
I also have propagated in water but it seems to take longer for them to have enough healthy roots to pot.
I hope this helps you with your question and best of luck!
