The newer leaves on my pothos are all growing in smaller and smaller. The growth on the longest vine has stopped completely and I want to prevent that for the others. The plant is healthy otherwise. How can I get the leaves to grow in bigger?

When's the last fertilizer or repot?

#### fireyplanter replied on 2025-01-13

I repotted it about 6 months ago and it's been a couple months since I've fertilized

#### Wolfen 🐺 replied on 2025-01-13

Definitely time to feed it. The least I'd fertilize is every 2-4 weeks

What kind of light is it getting/where is it located from what compass directional window

#### fireyplanter replied on 2025-01-13

It's in a westward facing window so there's some good light in the afternoon

#### Alyssa replied on 2025-01-13

Yeah that’s definitely good light, I’d say it’s hungry based on when you last gave it fertilizer, I fertilize my big pothos every watering (10-13 days)

Thank you!!!

Use a moss pole or some type of support so the plant can grow up it. 😊🪴
