Hi friends! I need to pot my Golden cutting and I’m terrified to do so haha she’s sentimental to me and I don’t want to kill her. She’ll be my first transfer from water to soil.
The plan: Going into the nursery pot in the last picture, has 4 drainage holes.
Going to use 2/3 indoor potting mix, 1/3 perlite. (I also have pumice I could use)
Saw a method where you tape the drainage holes shut and “flood” the soil first to better help the roots acclimate during the repot and then drain as normal when done.
Anything I should be doing different?! Thank you!

No advice but I’m sure the transfer will go great. I’m totally new to this, but my pothos cuttings are doing great. They started as two 1-leaf cuttings and had less roots than yours. My soil mix was about the same as you too. You got this!
I have several growing permanently in water, just properly dose them with nutrients every once in awhile! And also, the root mass on that cutting shouldn’t give you ANY trouble planting in soil, proper light and watering to get it established, good to go!
