I mean,<br> you *could* say that I,<br> in fact,<br> rescued it from becoming pruned rubbish at a later date... but OK,<br> so you say paath,<br> I say parth... wateva ;) LOL!\n\nRecently,<br> I'd seen some gardening videos that show how easy it is to grow a 'Pothos' plant from a standard cutting and a couple of the videos also talked about another method (and the one I'm following today) that utilises a fish-tank for **Water Propagation**. \n\n---\n\n![Imgur (https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/g7JroEz.jpg)\n\n---\n\nThe set up was as basic as you can get and as simple as placing the cutting into the fish-tank water however,<br> an added bonus to using a 'Pothos' plant with this method of propagation is that the plant is known to be very efficient at purifying the water and improving the health of the tank whilst drawing the essential nutrients from the water.\n\nAnd,<br> of course... me,<br> being ME... I had to try it for myself... \n\n...for no other reason than having the personal satisfaction of knowing that I had.\n\nAnyhoo,<br> the cutting already had a nice root growing from one of the inter-nodes so I really hope the plant stays healthy and continues to grow; there's also a new shoot at the top of the vine with a fresh leaf just waiting to open,<br> so I'll be keeping a very close eye on both the root and the new shoot over the next few weeks,<br> just watching and waiting for movement,<br> new growth or ANY sign of life (as a measure of success lol)\n\n---\n\n![Imgur (https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/QpXe1NE.jpg)\n\n<center>\n\n![Line (https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/u7Do3Kd.png)\n\nThanks for stopping by and reading my post,<br> I really do appreciate your time.\n\n### And remember to keep smiling,<br> it makes people wonder what you're thinking...!\n\n<br>\n\n![Kindest Regards (https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/VBf96Pj.png)\n\nIf you enjoyed reading my post,<br> please follow,<br> comment and upvote.\nAll photos,<br> stories and graphics are my own work unless otherwise noted.\n\n<br>\n\n![Imgur (https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/nPCnREd.png)\n\n![Line (https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/u7Do3Kd.png)\n\n[![stnicholas2018.png (https:\/\/steemitimages.com\/80x90\/https:\/\/files.steempeak.com\/file\/steempeak\/alphaccino.art\/g9mDbqfL-st-nicholas2018.png) ![level.png (https:\/\/steemitimages.com\/90x100\/https:\/\/files.steempeak.com\/file\/steempeak\/alphaccino.art\/PIAXLLxw-level.png) ![weeklyAuthor.png (https:\/\/steemitimages.com\/80x90\/https:\/\/files.steempeak.com\/file\/steempeak\/alphaccino.art\/egEMzTZF-weeklyAuthor.png) (http:\/\/steemitboard.com\/board.html?user=alphaccino.art)\n\n<sub>Make your own steemitboard footer with [this post (https:\/\/steemit.com\/steemitboard\/@arcange\/steemitboard-how-to-create-an-awesome-footer-with-your-awards) by @arcange<\/sub>\n\n[![posts.png (https:\/\/steemitimages.com\/60x70\/https:\/\/files.steempeak.com\/file\/steempeak\/alphaccino.art\/7Fl6DhKA-posts.png) ![comments.png (https:\/\/steemitimages.com\/70x80\/https:\/\/files.steempeak.com\/file\/steempeak\/alphaccino.art\/CfPTGHgA-comments.png) ![upvotes.png (https:\/\/steemitimages.com\/80x90\/https:\/\/files.steempeak.com\/file\/steempeak\/alphaccino.art\/bjp2C0x7-upvotes.png) ![rewards.png (https:\/\/steemitimages.com\/80x90\/https:\/\/files.steempeak.com\/file\/steempeak\/alphaccino.art\/H0ZXY3Xu-rewards.png) ![replies.png (https:\/\/steemitimages.com\/70x80\/https:\/\/files.steempeak.com\/file\/steempeak\/alphaccino.art\/LPJ6ISuu-replies.png) ![upvoted.png (https:\/\/steemitimages.com\/60x70\/https:\/\/files.steempeak.com\/file\/steempeak\/alphaccino.art\/Ug2XON9b-upvoted.png) (http:\/\/steemitboard.com\/board.html?user=alphaccino.art)\n\n![Line (https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/u7Do3Kd.png)\n\nProudly representing\n\n![Imgur (https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/WGuBGxi.png)\n\n![Line (https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/u7Do3Kd.png)\n\nProud supporter of @steeming-hot\n\n[![steeming-hot-bot_small.png (https:\/\/cdn.steemitimages.com\/DQmdCimXD2sHmZFpicaiPQvLwHc8T9mbn1PmU5f9QgbsT4M\/steeming-hot-bot_small.png) (steemit.com\/@steeming-hot)\n\n<\/center>",<br>"json_metadata":" \"app\":\"pruner\",<br>\"message\":\"See you on the other side!\" " |
