Q.What Type Of Soil Do I Need?

Zone 90232 | leahlovesleaves added on May 28, 2020 | Answered

I would like to try my hand at propagating trimmings from several plants. I have a Pothos and some Ivy and am wondering what the best soil is for these if they’re going to be indoor house plants. Any recommendations?

You can root these in water or 1/2 peat moss and 1/2 perlite. You also can use regular potting mix. When rooted, commercial houseplant potting mix is fine to plant them.
