Hey! Anyone know what this means? They are propagated in water, with a part sun part shade lighting.

Plant name

I think it’s just a regular Pothos

#### Karen replied on 2025-09-19

Pothos plants are easy to care for, thriving in bright, indirect light and well-draining soil that dries out between waterings. They are adaptable to a range of household humidity and temperatures but prefer bright, indirect light to maintain their leaf variegation. Regular pruning encourages a fuller, bushier plant, while a well-draining, organic potting mix is ideal.

Ok 👍

I have three pothos in water and at first they did this too. I thought it was overwatering but they’re in water so idk. They also need the water changed often to avoid fungus or something like that. Hope it helps.

Is this the same leaf that was there when you first propagated it?

### Hannah commented on 2025-09-20

No this one’s new but it has grown slowly

### Sunny commented on 2025-09-20

They might need more light. Place in bright indirect light. Pothos can take direct morning light but I would not put cuttings in direct sunlight.

Add diluted fertilizer to the plant twice a month.

Keep the water level the same. Roots that are above the water line will die off. This shows on the leaves and stems. 🪴🍀
