They are such fun plants. I just got a Marble queen pothos, I’ve had it for about a month and I’m already seeing new leaf growth. I let the soil dry out between watering but they do recommend that you just let the top soil dry out. I use an old paint brush to stick in the soil to test how wet it is so I can avoid over watering.

I just gave away a pothos today :) leave them in water for pretty much as long as you want, but wait until they’re growing secondary roots before you put them into soil. Change the water every so often as well, maybe every 2 weeks
