Many times when pothos dies, it is just the upper part that wilts due to frostbite, but the roots are still healthy. At this time, it is necessary to cut off most of the top of the pot soil, leaving only one or two buds. Then cover it with plastic wrap, poke a few holes to ensure ventilation, and place it in a place with diffuse light. Water when the soil in the pot turns white, and branches and leaves will grow in about a month.

1. Check the roots

1. Check the roots

After the pothos is frozen, the upper part will easily die. At this time, the roots should be checked. If the roots are not rotten, there is a possibility of resurrection.

2. Beheading

If you want to save the pothos, you must first behead it, that is, cut off all the branches and leaves on the pot soil. Only 1-2 bud points are left above the roots, so that they can sprout quickly.

3. Reasonable maintenance

Cover the decapitated pothos with plastic wrap and poke a few small holes to help keep it warm and ventilate. When you see the pot soil turning white, remove the plastic wrap, spray water on it, and then cover it again. After the branches sprout buds, they can be placed in a place with astigmatism. Generally, branches and leaves will grow after 1-2 months.

4. Prune branches and leaves

Cut off new growth. The length is about 15 cm, while retaining a bud point and leaves. These branches and leaves can be used for cuttings to ensure faster growth.

5. Cutting and popping the pot

Insert the pruned branches into the pot. Use a mixture of peat soil and perlite to configure the potting soil, with a ratio of about 3:1. Insert the branches in a circle, with the leaves and buds pointing upwards. After watering them thoroughly, place them in a ventilated place that requires scattered light. Just spray water on the leaves every day to keep them moist, and a pot will be full in 30 days.
