Giant pothos growth update. The giant pothos is still getting more GIANT. I love this plant so much, from just a thick node has grown such a wonderfully large giant pothos plant.

That thing is ginormous! Lol
still extremely invested please continue with this series!
Very inspiring! What light is it sitting under?
Yes, the plank absolutely will help! I would wager the support you gave it is what did it. I stuck a plank on the backside of my albo, just set on top of the dirt and used some Velcro to lightly secure it. It's attached itself firmly and is already giving me fenestrations with it's… 6th or 7th leaf. This little furring strip wasn't even meant to be the permanent one, thus its position on top of the soil, leaning against the wall.
I have what I believe I've come to the conclusion is a Philodendron erubescens "Green Emerald" that I grew from a surprise gifted chonk when I got the albo. It sized up quite nicely as I kept the moss pole moist but it quickly outgrew it. I've been rearranging to find it a new home but in the mean time, the leaves have definitely regressed. I leaned it against a bookshelf for a little while where it attached itself and started sizing up again. At this point I'm debating chopping and propping it so I can make a new pole with two or three plants, but I'm also really proud of this lanky thing
Also, the electrical tape killed me 😂 but I've used shoelaces and whatever I had handy so I'm one to laugh!
Where can I find one? I would love to propagate one! #giantpothos
Dudeee the giant pothos node was THEE video that popped up on my feed one day and it's how I found / subscribed to your channel. Love to see these updates
Great job it's growing a little slow for a pothos
the tape method made me laugh so hard, this plant is so cool! I didnt even know they could get that big! I was sitting here amazed at my leaves that are the size of my hand rn xD
I still can’t believe how chonky that node is
For the algorithm!!
WOW!!! Your pothos is beautiful!!!
I bought a Pothos with super bug leaves this summer. Now I'm obsessed with Epipremnum 😍
That is so cool! Wow that is one giant plant!
So what is this exactly? A Jade or a Hawaiian? Do Hawaiians exist? I got a giant cutting not that big but it's green stem and a small amount of bright gold on leaves. I'm confused because I can't find any reputable places that have ever sold them so… I figure it's just a big golden pothos possibly. Any help would be great!
1:26 Big Leaf Energy!
Love this guys vibe!!!
so cool. I love huge pothos! I’m in zone 7 North Carolina, the hospital nearby has a cool tropical planting indoors, I guess it’s like a greenhouse with how many windows are around, well someone planted a pothos in there and the thing went crazy, the plant must be at least 5 years old and it has mature stems and leaves just from rambling on the ground. So I suspect you can grow it huge as a crawler but that would take up way too much space. 🤣
I think you will have some minute fenestrations soon.
you really just tapped that on there
Yea it was the plank! Plants wiggle as they grow and they have little crystals that help them feel gravity. So the plank stopped the agitation on the crystals. So by securing it, they knew it was safe to push out a big leaf.
That newest leaf is absolutely incredible
nice!
I had one leaf from mine grow that big in a window
When do you think Pathos came to the United States? My mom has had one since before I can remember at least the early 90s and my cuttings from it are at least 15 years old. Sometimes it’s really cool to be able to track down plant histories
Currently I’m trying to figure out how old Mojave desert moss might be but how do you figure out the age I don’t know 😅 same with the pathos plant
Thank you for sharing you have a wonderful and blessed New Year
I love those aerial roots too!
What a nice surprise to come home to. 💚🌱💚
I would definitely mosspole all m'y climbing plants now, even if they're not mean to be big, i'll experience a little bit 🙂
It doesn't look like pothos, more like philodendron. 😱
I think this is the handsomest you've been ever since you made youtube videos.
What's the brand of your shirt btw?
Do you keep the moss pole moist by watering it? That leaf is the size of my monstera deliciosa' biggest leaf!
Never stop giving updates dude I love the series!
Gorgeoussss
I love the giant pothos updates! Please continue with them. I love all your pothos experiments.
So uh, hypthetical Q. How far (long/big) are you gonna let it grow? Will you let it colonize the room? or move it outside?
Pothos fenestrate?! I need more grow lights, more humidifiers, and more planks.
Tip about growing on planks. Seal the part that is in the soil with aquarium sealant so it doesn't rot.
More than a pothos, it looks like some sort of upright Philodendron, like the Rojo Congo
Epipremnum aureum is my favorite house plant, and watch it get mature is something I really enjoy 🤩😍
Where can I find that 3d printed moss pole?
Updates on this plant make me so happy.
Oh it DEFINITELY could be the plank (4:20), completely disagree with it being ‘obviously not’ due to the plank. Because you tightly attached the plank to the stem it is now being supported rather than having to support itself regardless if adventitious roots have attached. Final leaf size is also not determined super early—the leaves as I’m sure you know continue to grow during and after they emerge. If conditions change as a leaf is unfurling it can end up bigger or smaller depending on what changed.
