I appreciate that! thats my goal!

Pothos actually creates its own rooting hormone that is more effective in water! Sticking pothos into a propagation jar can speed up root growth for all plants in the jar. Rooting hormone is best used in soil, to help adapt the roots to soil.

Could you repeat this experiment using the rooting hormone in soil? If you place the cuttings between two panes of glass with about an inch or so between them you should be able to see the root development.

I follow you for a while now and have to say you're one of the most exciting "plant youtubers" because of things like this. You go out of your way, out of your comfort zone and try and learn new things - not just show us your plant collection the 100th time or give basic care tips! I bought a monstera varigata cutting early this year and it doesn't do anything besides some roots! I tried everything; greenhouse, grow lights, soil, moss, perlite, keiki paste, cut it's leaf (now it's a wet stick), cut its roots - nothing BUT it's still alive and is now generating new roots. I feel a bit like you and hopefully I can share my knowledge sometime in the future as well. Great work!

Great video. I've played with rooting hormone on viney plants this Winter quite a bit. I would suggest one - changing the water about every three days to get a better result (you can go a week). The other thing is that you don't need that much rooting hormone when submerging in water. A dash of it directly in the water usually produced a better effect than over-saturating them; no need to replace the hormone when you change the water if you just add water. Again, great video.

Thanks for watching, yeah its a personal preference

I had the same film issue when I tried powder rooting hormone in water, although I mixed it into the water instead of keeping it bunched on the plant itself. I would end up running the plant under water to clean it and put it in fresh water after a while since I was worried about the plant dying (which did happen sometimes when I didn't switch the water out). Your experiment was good. I liked the look of the roots that didn't have the hormones based on coloring. The rooting hormone roots were more numerous, but looked more fragile in the end.

I'd like to see this with some woodier and harder to root plants. I wasn't expecting to see so much difference. I've tried rooting hormone on my African Violets and found that the ones with hormone went squishy and rotted where as the ones without did well. I also found that same thing with pothos. I was doing soil rooting rather then water so that might have made a difference.

Does anyone know if you can add rooting hormone to cuttings if they’ve already been in water for say...4 weeks? At what point can you no longer add it to the cuttings? I’m not sure if it would burn them at a certain point or something 🤔😓

Pothos plants, which is what you are using, already make a root growth hormone on their own. As a matter of fact I use the water from them on other plants successfully 👍
