I'd describe myself as a recovering pessimist, for a long time I had the mindset that if I don't get my hopes up I'll save myself the disappointment. But I decided to change a few years ago and started believing in things, there are worse things than disappointment.
I rescued this sad sad looking thing from my workplace's "cutting hotel" a month ago and posted about it in a handful of subreddits. Most were fairly pessimistic about my odds, but a few suggested wet stick propagation and similar, so I tried that. Happy to say after a month of constantly lifting the lid thrice a day trying to see if anything is happening, then slowly seeing new green growth emerge out of the little sad twigs I've finally gotten a LEAF!!!!! The smugness might kill me I fear. There's no high greater than proving redditors wrong.
Now what do I do? I moved her into a deeper container of perlite the other day to give her roots more space to play, but is it perhaps time for soil soon? I'm fairly certain she's a pothos, what's the general pothos care advice?
