I have had my golden pothos for over 40 years now. I keep chopping it because it would take over everything if I didn't. Pothos are beautiful plants no matter which variety they are & I will always have mine too.👍😊
I just did this a few months ago with my jade pothos. My husband came home and was like ‘where’s the plant?!’ I showed him all the jars with the cuttings and his eyes got huge 😳 apparently he really like the plant and was kind of sad about it 😂 so awesome of you to share your cuttings!
@@wildfern I love thinking about how I have little baby Hoya and others all over the country from cuttings 😆 plants are so exciting, I could go on and on 😂
Okay why was this such an emotional rollercoaster for me and Greta isn't even mine? I held my breath on the first few chops. All said and done, I felt your 2nd hand relief, but I can't believe you didn't break down and cry! I think I was tearing up at one point. Lmao 😂
Me too! I just now came across this video but remembered Greta from her moving video- awhile back. I always wondered what happened to her but figured she had her in there somewhere. Ingasped when she said she was gonna cut her up! But as one who is currently experiencing way too many Pothos..I get it lol.
Omg I'm so jealous of that bin of cuttings! I wish I lived in your area cuz I've been dying for a marble queen pothos, man I know some people must've estatic for that post lol. I hope to one day have a large beautiful "Greta" of my own, and I love your content as always Fern!❤
taking cuttings of a plant sometimes makes me feel the same way as changing the color of my hair or cutting my hair, a sens of renewal & off letting go of ild stuff, you did a great thing cutting Greta, especially if it was starting to get you stressed out, it was time ! ❤️
Growing her up a moss pole would be fun! I’ve always wanted to try it. I’ve seen people get some huge leaves. I really loved watching this video. There’s something so therapeutic about seeing big change 🌱 ♥️
That was so nice of you to share your cuttings! I agree with everyone that said to fill her in and make her a more full plant, and then, as she vines again, put her on a moss pole. Thank you for sharing! 💜
Oh my! the untangling was so satisfying. It was like looking at someones hair finally being brushed after years. She was so looong! And holly sh** the bin!! haha. Super happy for you.
OMG Greta 😥 I can't believe you did this! Well done for having the courage! Woo Fresh start! I never thought this would happen! I love your channel 😊🙏 Xx
I love it! My marble queen has five leaves...can’t wait until she is of ‘Greta proportions’. I used to have a gold pothos that was ginormous like that but had to leave it with my mom when i moved to Canada from US.
I don't usually bother with the Root hormone, but I would definitely use it with those big leaf cuttings. They would turn out so nice and you could get decent money for them.
Well done, am sure Greta 2.0 will look amazing and the fact so many other ppl will have their very own baby G is awesome. Its going to be amazing watching her grow 💗🪴 Take care and thanks for the inspirational video, i think im going to have a few bib chops this year xx
Yes totally, I thought it was so cool to give away so many pieces of her 🥺 she's so amazing and I'm happy to spread the good plant genes! Thanks so much for watching 💜
It was nice to watch you do a super sculpting chop of Greta. I think it’s the hardest thing for me to do and watching you go through the process, and even your talk of your range of emotions, was empowering. Motivates me to chop and prop some Cebu Blue I have…. 😊
💚❤️🪴❤️💚 I have a large pothos that has so many bare vines. I’ve thot about chopping up but I can’t bring myself to do it bc she’s so pretty lol I ended up just buying her, her own bar stool off the market place. When she touches the ground I chop her-just a few vines at a time so she doesn’t look bare. I chop the bare vines high and plan on potting them back in at some point. Loved your video! It was cool to see all those cutting.
That's such a good idea, it is so hard to chop them all up. It was definitely her time and I can't wait to watch her grow now! Feels so good. Thanks so much for watching 🥰
Omg I would loooove some of those cuttings😍😍😍😍😍. Too bad I’m in Calif :( I enjoyed seeing Greta in your videos. Bless her, it’s time for a fresh start. I’m sure she’s loving the new haircut😌😌😌
I inherited a few big Mama marble queen pothos, when my friend/neighbor passed away. Now that's its winter I'm running out of spaces for them all!. I'm hoping to get a new t.v. soon social moint it on the wall and put all my big plants under it- otherwise I'll be giving them away by the pound too!!!
I actually did the same thing to my pothos that was 13 yrs old I ended up with about 8 plants which I currently have 5 of them which are all full that was about 3 yrs ago at least you have soil. I just had roots and it was still growing.
I have a huge marble queen too. It is hard to find a place big enough and worthy of her beauty, but I can’t bring myself to cut her. I just propagate cutting and add them back in and she looks so much better.
Amazing! Baby Greta's growing all over :) I wish I lived close. Too bad you couldn't have put a couple cuttings in the mail with propagation stations from modern botanical lol
Wildfern: Overflowing bin of free Marble queen cuttings. Meanwhile in HK: 3 leaf cutting of Marble queen for 10USD :'D Can't complain too much though since I believe plant prices are regional, as we have 4 inch full trailing pots of VSOH for 4.8USD and they don't really sell here lol, which is great for me because I love VSOH and got my 4ft long 6 inch pot of VSOH version of "Greta" for 9USD.
I've done this in the past, it's not easy and I have another one ready for a chop but I'm going to have to cut the pot it's been in cause the opening is smaller than the pot. I put 8 or 10 cutting in my pot so it's nice and full growing out.
You should do an update video on Greta in 6 months ! I would love to see how she looks like after a repot and whenever you replant cuttings back in :)
Second that! I just came along your channel and would love to see how she's doing!❤
All the people who came to pick up cuttings totally scored! Beautiful healthy cuttings. Great of you to share.
It’s cool that you allowed Greta’s cuttings to make other people happy, too!! 💚💚💚
Put them back in pot to make plant look fuller be blessed keep growing
I have had my golden pothos for over 40 years now. I keep chopping it because it would take over everything if I didn't. Pothos are beautiful plants no matter which variety they are & I will always have mine too.👍😊
That bin of cuttings was outrageous!
Hahaha!!
was nice to see your plant be cut and given out freely i love that about the plant community. excited to see her babies live on too ☺️
☺️☺️☺️
I just did this a few months ago with my jade pothos. My husband came home and was like ‘where’s the plant?!’ I showed him all the jars with the cuttings and his eyes got huge 😳 apparently he really like the plant and was kind of sad about it 😂 so awesome of you to share your cuttings!
Murderer
I’m emotional about this and not even started watching it yet 😭😂
Hahah right! What a journey
Omg, I know! 🤣 I saw the title and was like 🥺 Oh Greta! But she’ll probably be so happy though 🥰
That was super sweet of you to share your Queen Marble!!!!
Omggggg the big single leaf cuttings looked like baby monstera albos almost❤️ so beautiful
Right!!!
I'm so excited to see all those potted up and grow out. Amazing leaves
Blimey you might want to consider reverse mugging, and force pothos on random people at knifepoint
Bahahah - take my damn clippings! 🤛
I need to do this with my wandering dude and put the cuttings back in him. He’s looking EXTREMELY bald up-top, needs a hair transplant
So cathartic! I love the many lives our plants live through repotting and propagation 😆❤️
So true 🥺 I love it too
@@wildfern I love thinking about how I have little baby Hoya and others all over the country from cuttings 😆 plants are so exciting, I could go on and on 😂
This physically pained me to watch😂 I like when you pinned up all her vines in your dining room
Haha it looked sooo bad in person, she was so scraggly 😫
@@wildfern yeah I’ve been debating doing the same to my pothos cause it has some sparse vines but I just don’t have the heart😂
So kind of you to have given the plants 👍 it will grow happily at many people's houses
🥰🥰🥰
This reminds me of cutting my hair when I’m going through something for some reason hahaha so therapeutic!!
I’m so glad you showed us the roots. I wanted to see what they’d look like
Okay why was this such an emotional rollercoaster for me and Greta isn't even mine? I held my breath on the first few chops. All said and done, I felt your 2nd hand relief, but I can't believe you didn't break down and cry! I think I was tearing up at one point. Lmao 😂

Oh wow😮
The leafs are pretty as heck and big to 🤩
I love that you shared them for free and they all got taken, that's so awesome, and I love your nails 🤩

Ok it’s wild to see Greta get a chop, but WOW she is going to come back as such a full pot of cuttings!!!!
The large leaves are beautiful! Oh my god 😱
I will never get over the size of them 🤩
Awwww Greta 🌱🌱
It had to be done, you still have some great pieces of her…Greta has some great genes 🥰🌱
Yes totally ☺️☺️☺️
I actually loved this and felt this lol sometimes a plant needs a fresh start!! Good for you momma!! I love Greta!
Growing her up a moss pole would be fun! I’ve always wanted to try it. I’ve seen people get some huge leaves.
I really loved watching this video. There’s something so therapeutic about seeing big change 🌱 ♥️

Coming back around!
Oh my! the untangling was so satisfying. It was like looking at someones hair finally being brushed after years. She was so looong! And holly sh** the bin!! haha. Super happy for you.
Greta is amazing!! So great that you were able to share, can't wait till my pothos are this massive
Oh, Fern!!! How cool 😎 I enjoyed your big chop!!! You did good! Very sweet of you to share, and no charge☺️ big heart!
Sharing way to Go!!!😉
So exciting!!! Beautiful that you shared her with so many people 🌿❤ Greta is now in so many homes!
I have a golden pothos That is almost one year old. It is getting so big already. What a beautiful plant you have.
OMG Greta 😥 I can't believe you did this! Well done for having the courage! Woo Fresh start! I never thought this would happen! I love your channel 😊🙏 Xx
Let me just say, I’m obsessed with your turntable/record set up!!!
I love it! My marble queen has five leaves...can’t wait until she is of ‘Greta proportions’. I used to have a gold pothos that was ginormous like that but had to leave it with my mom when i moved to Canada from US.
I loved this video. Sometimes we all just need a fresh start, even plants. :) Can't wait to see an update video down the road of how Greta is doing.
I just got a marble queen this morning that has been dubbed Queen Elizabeth, I can't wait to see them get crazy big like that.
Ohhh no :0 greta!!! I love her so much I hope she grows beautifully
I get how she could become overwhelming, she is HUGEEE
16:32 I felttttttt real pain when you just dumped her on her head 😂 😳 no fucks
Lmaoooo 🤣
I understand the plant maintenance struggle. No one knows unless its their own space. You do you Ferny! :)
I don't usually bother with the Root hormone, but I would definitely use it with those big leaf cuttings. They would turn out so nice and you could get decent money for them.
Those big leaves are beautiful ! 🌿😍
Omg wish you were local! I love our local free plant group, nothing better than sharing and getting free plants you want
Oh that's so cool that you have a free plant group 🥰 so wholesome 🌱
I have a Greta. Her name is "Helen" and she's pretty long. I've been considering giving her a haircut. I might do it to make her fuller on top.
Helen! Love it. Good plan 😃
Okay really starting to wish I lived in Canada 🥲 I am super sad I couldn't get a cutting from Gretta, she was so gorgeous.
I’ve never watched a video that was so soothing, yet so stressful all at the same time 😐
Sharing is caring.. I’m sure they have gone to good homes.. keep us updated on Greta babies. 👍🏼👏🏼
Well done, am sure Greta 2.0 will look amazing and the fact so many other ppl will have their very own baby G is awesome. Its going to be amazing watching her grow 💗🪴 Take care and thanks for the inspirational video, i think im going to have a few bib chops this year xx

Omg those half moons cuttings are so gorgeous 💕
Huge score for the people who got cuttings! This makes me realize I so desperately need to chop my leggy pothos that I’ve never cut before. 🌿❤️
💚❤️🪴❤️💚

Totally agree with you it was time for a chop. Those big leaves are gorgeous 😍 it’s gonna be so nice when you have a big full bush of it again. 💚
Oh Greta ❤️ this was so satisfying to watch! I would love to see a 6 month update once she bounces back x
Omg I would loooove some of those cuttings😍😍😍😍😍. Too bad I’m in Calif :(
I enjoyed seeing Greta in your videos. Bless her, it’s time for a fresh start. I’m sure she’s loving the new haircut😌😌😌
good to know i don’t need to repot my snow queen lol! i got a little baby from walmart and it’s growing so fast i’m obsessed
I think you did the right thing she really did need it a makeover.. So great job and a High five 🤚 to you hun 💚🌿🌿🌿
why did i get emotional???????? 🥺🥺🥺 i desperately want a marble queen bc of greta! 🖤
You've inspired me to get my pothos sorted out and repotted.
I inherited a few big Mama marble queen pothos, when my friend/neighbor passed away. Now that's its winter I'm running out of spaces for them all!. I'm hoping to get a new t.v. soon social moint it on the wall and put all my big plants under it- otherwise I'll be giving them away by the pound too!!!
Omg we are wearing the same exact outfit! I wish I could show you! Dang Greta, looking good 🔥
I thought you could shock a plant and end up killing it if you did such a big haircut like that! I hope Greta is okay, keep us posted 🙌🏻
You can basically cut a Pothos and throw them on the ground and they will take off. Marble Queen are the easiest to propogate.
15:05 😮lol that bin is overflowing!!! so generous!!!
i was kinda sad abt this because if i had that, i would let it trail on my ceiling but anyways… i’m so happy that you’re happy abt this
crazy how all that grew from just a few rooted vines… wow! 🤩
Wow! That took a lot of guts!😊! Greta is going to be much happier and healthier!
I actually did the same thing to my pothos that was 13 yrs old I ended up with about 8 plants which I currently have 5 of them which are all full that was about 3 yrs ago at least you have soil. I just had roots and it was still growing.

waw... very nice IDEA........ JUST love it totally
THAT. BIN. hoooolllly sheesh that's unbelievable.
Hahah!!
It’s hard to do something this drastic but it’ll be worth it! Greta will be feelin fresh and new with her hair cut.
Yes totally!! ☺️
sadly I don’t have any pothos and went to the nursery but they didn’t have any if I lived near you I would’ve taken some lol 😆 💕
Omg I would love some of these cuttings. So beautiful. Thanks for sharing.
I also just gave my marble queen pothos a major chop last sunday... along with the golden pothos and philo brasil
omg NO!!!!! Moss Pole! that’s what I did with 10 year old potho! She’s amazing! leaves are HUGE NOW
I wish my marble queen pothos will grow that big one day.. I enjoyed watching your videop!^♡^
Omg I want a clipping! hehe
Lucky people!
please do a giveaway with some of these! i would love to have a little piece of queen greta
Ooo I’m terrible about leaving my trailing plants alone to let them get this crazy 🤣
It's so easy to just let them go wild hahah
Gretaaaa noooooo. I can't wait for the queen to make a comeback lol
I love this!!! So fun and therapeutic. Did you repot her??
Nope, I figured I'd just restart the cuttings and grow her again from those ☺️
@@wildfern so Greta is not in a pot? Is it dead?
Wildfern: Overflowing bin of free Marble queen cuttings.
Meanwhile in HK: 3 leaf cutting of Marble queen for 10USD :'D
Can't complain too much though since I believe plant prices are regional, as we have 4 inch full trailing pots of VSOH for 4.8USD and they don't really sell here lol, which is great for me because I love VSOH and got my 4ft long 6 inch pot of VSOH version of "Greta" for 9USD.
I would’ve taken a bunch lol i love pothos
Greta is stunning!!
Can you do an update when you pot up the new and improved Greta?
I've done this in the past, it's not easy and I have another one ready for a chop but I'm going to have to cut the pot it's been in cause the opening is smaller than the pot. I put 8 or 10 cutting in my pot so it's nice and full growing out.
Oh wow! Yeah it was honestly such a procedure haha. It feels so good to do though, and I can't wait to watch her grow all over again ☺️
Omg why do I feel emotional for greta 🤧
An emotional journey 🥺
inspiring and cleansing, exactly what i needed :,-)
You could give the bare stems for free, for people practicing now to grow wet sticks ✨ your plant is beautiful by the way!
Cliffhanger! 😱
Did I miss the part where you mentioned what you did with the mother plant!?
What a gorgeous plant! Do you know why those couple leaves got so amazingly large?! Some combination of perfect light/fertilization?!
AMAZING 🥰
Omgg I would love to take some of those.!! Where r u selling them at?
