# My two Pothos plants have been “drooping” for months now 🥲 I bought…

_Posted by Emily on 2024-02-20_

My two Pothos plants have been “drooping” for months now 🥲 I bought them last summer, and they were doing really well for the first few months! It’s gone downhill since.

Included are two photos of each plant, ones from a while ago and ones from today. I moved them both into the window today out of fear that the one in the black pot isn’t getting enough light.

Any advice would be appreciated!

PlantyAnn, that is a Great idea to check the soil with a wooden skewer, it reminds of learning to check if a cake is done with a toothpick 😊
