My Pothos got a bit long and dropped leaves in the middle of its stem. I didn’t want to cut it directly since in my experience it would drop more leaves on the newly cut piece, so I wanted to try air layering. I’ve never done air layering before and didn’t want to use sphagnum moss, so I gave it a try with coco coir....
So, obviously, a beginner wants to start with a hardy plant, and I guess a cheap one, and one suited for the conditions the houseplant will be living in, and one they like the look of.

My portulacaria afra is getting tons of new leaves but they’re all light green and fall off easily. This is nutrient deficiency if I’ve ever seen it, but fertiliser doesn’t help. Any ideas? I don’t think it’s sunstress, either.
