Pothos help???

10 years ago
last modified: 10 years ago

Hi everyone,

I'm fairly new to keeping plants. I recently bought a Pothos. I believe it's a golden pothos. Apparently, pothos are supposed to be easy to care for, but funny enough I'm having more trouble with it than my Venus Flytrap.

Since I've brought it home, a few of the older leaves near the center of the pot have turned yellow. I removed the yellow leaves and more turned yellow. Should I just leave the yellow leaves alone?

I have it hanging in front of a south facing window. I know they don't need a ton of light, so I only open my blinds halfway. Therefore, the bottom part of the window has light coming in and the top half (where the plant is) doesn't. That way it isn't sitting in direct sunlight. Should I still move it somewhere else?

I am also worried that I may have over watered it. I watered it right after I brought it home and re-potted it. The pot has a drainage hole and there was only a little bit of run off after watering.

Other than the yellow leaves it seems to be growing well. The longest vine has grown like like 6 inches in the two weeks since I brought it home.

Any suggestions? Here are some pictures.
