Hi, everyone 🤗 Need y'all's thoughts/advice on my babies. I have quite a few pothos plants that are currently in plant hospital in my upstairs living room 🥺 Some we're looking quite droopy and losing leaves, which I boiled down to inconsistent watering (it's been a busy couple months). Anyway, I placed them upstairs last night because it's the least cold room and gets the best light during our winters here in central coast CA. This morning they look happier and the leaves don't look wilty anymore (yay!). But one of the plants (see pictures) has lots of bare vine space with no leaves. Should I be worried about this? And any winter care tips y'all can share? I really don't want to kill my babies! My house is pretty drafty and this living room I think is the best place for them right now. Any ideas are welcome! 🩷

    Since it’s getting colder I recommend keeping a grow light on them for 12 hours a day. For the bare vine there are a few options you can try. Leaves won’t naturally grow back without you chopping the stem. You can either place the entire stem back into the pot and cover it with soil just leaving the stems poking out which will eventually make your plant look very full or you can chop the stem into multiple sections and wait a day for them to callous over then plant them back into the pot, water, or perlite. I hope this helps! :)
