I got two potho girls that are climbers. Out growing their pots. I was thinking aboit combining them into 1 pot. Thoughts? Since they are still too small for the pot size up from what they are in, but too big for current pot.

Ive had a lot of success combining pothos into bigger pots- go for it

We have a golden that has been in an oversized pot for years.. they don’t care

i recently combined 3 of my pothos that either struggle to get bushy or struggled to vine. this way i have the best of all worlds.

the reasons we don’t upsize a lot is because lots of plants will fill out the pot with roots before thinking about leaves (particularly monstera), but also it’s harder for the soil to dry out between waterings. it’s not at alllll like living outside in a yard.

as long as the plants you combine have similar watering schedules (pothos x pothos is perfect!!), you’ll be fine.
