# I got this pothos not long ago and it’s leaves were curled, it’s had…

_Posted by Britt Brat on 2025-07-18_

I got this pothos not long ago and it’s leaves were curled, it’s had a nice drink since then and even the cuttings I’ve taken from it are still curled even in water.  
Is this normal for them? How do I fix it?

It can be a lighting issue or humidity issue and even overwatering

It gets watered 1 time every 2 weeks. I’ve moved it to more light and they still are like that.

Try a small humidifier around it or a pebble tray. I was looking at mine this morning and was debating if I was gonna do it. However I think I’m gonna just move my candle a little closer

What’s a pebble tray? I only have a fogger for reptiles

### Yolanda commented on 2025-07-19

You get a drip tray and fill with pebbles that you get from Lowe’s or Home Depot or a nursery. Wash them really good first before you fill up the tray then add water in the tray of pebbles. This will then increase the humidity for your plant. This is the set up for my rubber plant

I’ll try it out!!! Thank you so much! I thought that when I bought the pothos it was just very thirsty since it did come from Walmart and those plants are always so thirsty when I bring them home! But I’ve adjusted lighting, watering etc and she still has curly wrinkly leaves :(
