Could you share a picture pls. so we can see what you're talking about?

It sounds like aerial roots, normal growth & behavior for this plant, so nothing to be alarmed about, am GUESSING.

Here's a picture for you. As you can see, there are growths ranging in size from very small to rather large (near the bottom of the photo).

Appreciate your help! :)

Aerial roots. Nothing is wrong with it.

Thanks so much! I'm relieved!

What a splendid idea! Thank you! :)

Mine looks EXACTLY like this photo, but I was more worried about the brown on the edges of where it appears the stem split (see above the aerial root, below the leaves). Is this normal?

Yes, Tabitha, perfectly normal. :+)

Not enough pic to say Molly? Pls show the entire plant so we can see. Is it even a Pothos (am thinking not).

Wow! Thank you so much . . . what a help! My plant stems are so very thick and now these brown stumps. So I was concerned. The leaves are getting bigger and bigger. I had to get a tomato tower to try and control it. On another note please tell me how to get rid of gnats. Thanks

would someone know what this is on my plant or why it looks like this?

This is not a Pothos, are you posting on this thread because of the brown stumps?

It's a Syngonium, badly neglected (sorry). I'd cut the top off & start it over. Other, better pix would help, can't tell if the brown are old leaf scars or root nodes. Those bent stems can be removed. Can you pls show the whole set up so I can see the whole pot, what the other plants are & the soil? even better if you start a new, separate thread for it pls.

i just got a new pothos plant from my cousins house a week ago and transferred it in soil.

it was being propagated in a glass jar for few months.i brought the one with two small leaves and there was a new stem.growth which has black tip..i am confused about what this might be.can anyone help me??is this plant even going to grow?

The black tip is where a stem has been cut off. There is nothing unusual happening there. Whether it grows or not is down to your care for it. Did the cutting have roots? Even if it didn't it could root in the medium.

yes the cutting had developed so.many long roots..hope it will grow..i am taking as much as care i

The stem(s) look water logged. Maybe send it to plant heaven and start over.

Don't wish to be rude, but there are 3 different plants on this thread, which are you referring to? In 20 yrs of doing this here I've never seen or heard of a waterlogged stem, don't know what you mean ??? None of these plants appear that to me.

Pls don't give advice here as you don't seem to know your plants, certainly not to toss it, none of these plants are ailing.

Smarika,

That pot is wayyyyyy too big for that itty bitty cutting. If it's still alive, you risk rotting it in that HUGE pot. Pls repot in small, 3 or 4 inch pot (7-10 cm), at most if you want it to survive. Don't water it often either.

Does anyone know what is wrong with my pothos ‘Njoy’? Please refer to pics below. There is brown/black growing on the stems and also spots on the leaves. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hello! I was having the same issue as the women above with what I believe is a pothos plant (please feel free to correct me if I’m wrong). It almost looks as if it is trying to sprout but there are this brown crustiness that cover the top of them. Should I be cutting it? Have I been watering him too much?

I got this as a gift and then this started growing... Is it normal?

No it's not normal, looks from here (pretty far) like a tiny cocoon of some insect maybe? I'd put the plant outside & try to wash, rub or scrape that off.

I just got a golden Pothos and it is just beautiful but as I was looking at the plant I noticed a few stem like things coming out....is this normal??

Hi, I bought an ivy and this part of the stem is like that- I haven’t noticed until I got home - should I cut the heathy part of the plant off and start all over?

Thank you

Hope someone could help me :( my golden pothos got sunburnt the other day and the new tiny bud that's about to grow seems burnt too. Will it still be able to grow? If not, will this stop my pothos from growing? Help :(

I have same problem. What is this n what should I do?

Hey everyone. 😊 Hoping someone can tell me why some of the leaves have brown/beige parts. The Pothos seems healthy otherwise. Had cut off some of the more browned leaves, but these less affected leaves remain. It’s not like overwatering/too much sun, looks more like lesions of some kind.

Not sure why the photos didn’t upload

I have had my marble Pothos for a while latley the growth had stunted it still looks beautiful but i have had to cut off a lot of stems do To burn stop I have tried everything repotted moved to a different stop it had new buds growing but one of the new buds tips are burnt already also there is a gnat flying around it what do I do

What is this on my golden potho!?

Hi, i have a potho and trying to roots it but has those

brown knotts and doesn't want to root. Ive never had this problem, what could i do you make it root?

Hi I was wondering if anyone can help me figure out what these little brown things are on my pothos. They are only growing on the side where the sun light (Not directly) hits it most. If you could please give me advice on what I can do that would be appreciated! Thank you!

After a long and confusing thread with many people tagging on and asking about many plants we’ve returned to the same question that started this all off. And the answer is the same. Those are aerial roots. Go back to the beginning of this thread and you’ll see the same phenomenon.

Can somebody help me what the brown spot on stem mean by?I just got pothos cutting two weeks back. It has grown roots.I am worried about brown spots .

I have propagated in water

Im concerned about the brown areas and not sure if that indicated the plant is dying

What do you recommend for this pathos? brown spots on leaves / rough edges to leaves / weird brown flakes on stems
