A bit of a background. I’m a new time plant owner. I have never owned plants and don’t have a green thumb at all. That being said, I purchased 2 Pothos after reading that they are low maintenance and easy to care for. These are shown in the picture. I’m still learning so my question is, whether this is an appropriate spot for them. I’m afraid they’re not getting enough sunlight, especially the leaves trailing upward. Thoughts?
This is honestly a great spot! None of my pothos are in direct sun and they’re doing great - you can always cut away the leggy vines (ones that look sparse/without many leaves) but that looks like one happy pothos! ☺️

They are so pretty! Green thumbs are just people who take the time to learn! I think that spot is perfect! The leafs will tell you when they need water to! They will start to curl up and that means it’s watering time! I try to water about once every two weeks unless they start to curl!💚
1 LikeThank you for that information! I didn’t realize they could survive for so long with minimal watering. I assumed they needed to be watered daily
1 Like Glad I could help you! Yeah I’d definitely not water them that often they’ll most likely get root rot from staying to most! You’ll get it along the way Planta are so fun to play with and learn about! They look beautiful!💚

Your pathos look great. I know a lot of people like to allow the stems to get long and leggy but I prefer them fuller. To get a fuller plant trim off those leggy stems and use them to propagate new plants.
I don’t know too much about propagating plants but I will give it a try
