Hi!!!

My global green Pothos has some brownish leaves and some of theses leaves also has yellow spots.

What am I doing wrong?

the brown is just scarring from damage. the yellow is more concerning. do you have a more encompassing photo? It looks like it’s still in a nursery pot

Ah wait just opened the photo larger and see that brown. I think this is a watering issue. I would pull it out of that pot and check the roots. Report back what you see (or photos!)

This is a golden pothos rather than a global green. The lighter yellow speckles are part of a goldens variegation. The bottom leaf in the first photo does look to be yellowing up however so just check you aren’t overwatering. These guys like to dry out in between and are better with neglect than being loved to death. The second pic looks like mechanical damage, either from the leave struggling to get out or from pets/children/getting caught on something. They’re pretty hardy overall and bounce back well from most things so don’t worry too much

Ok great! I will wait longer between watering time! Thanks
