My pothos leaves keep turning yellow and falling off. Wondering if I'm doing something wrong or if it's normal for them to get rid of older leaves since there's so many new ones? I know it's not overwatering but I'm at a loss

    Yes it is very normal, I have a very old golden pothos that has leaves that yellow and fall off all the time and it will eventually start growing new leaves in places where old leaves where, so there is nothing to worry about.

    Mine lost a lot of leaves during the colder months. Light from the windows decreased a lot. Temperatures were colder near the windows (non insulated glass). So, I moved the plants back a foot and increased the heat. Less light and the temperature changes slowed the photosynthesis process. Leaves dropped. I should have added a grow light. Check the temperature and humidity at the plant’s location. Check the intensity and the amount of light it’s getting with a light meter. My plants under a grow light get 12 hours a day within one foot of the light fixture. Also, check the roots. It might be getting root bound. 🍀🪴

    dropping leaves is totally normal on pothos, esp when it’s a bunch new leaves
