What do I do with this pothos??

I bought this off of a lady downsizing her plants, I got home and realized it wasn’t as bushy as I first thought it was and is actually two long vines lol. I’ve only dealt with golden pothos so far and I know that you can pin the vines down and have new nodes grow into the dirt. Id it the same with this one? Should I move it to a bigger pot and try to coil the vines around the soil? Thank you for any replies in advance.

I think you can cut them like Pothos. Make sure each cutting has a node and is buried in the soil.

First off this is not a pothos. Looks to be a heart shaped philodendron. They root the same way pothos do. If you are putting it into a veiled cage I would not use it though. Root them before you put in the soil. Cut them back in sections like 6 inches at the nodes. Root in water. Make sure it has a substantial root to it then plant back into a clean pot with organic dirt with the original plant. Take down all the excess dirt on that original plant. Cutting the two vines down will stimulate it to start new growth.

Thank you so much

lol that’s what I was gonna say. Didn’t look like a pothos at all. Leaves looked different and the vine / stem looked different. I also don’t really think pothos would grow like that. They usually spike up then grow some vines. ( at least from my experience with pothos ).
