I don’t know why the leaves on my pothos are curled. I tried to get information online and I keep getting “overwatered” or underwatered or sunlight There’s no good answer. Anyone have the same issue?

    It can be hard to determine seeing as over/under watering have basically the same symptoms. Is your soil completely dry and the leaves are curled? - it’s thirsty. It usually takes 12-24hrs after watering for them to flatten out. If your soil is still quite wet and the leaves are curled- its over watered. Check the roots for rot and repot if necessary. Another option could be root bound. But pothos can handle being extremely snug in their pots, so I would look into the watering first. If their soil has gone hydrophobic then you’ll need to bottom water and let it soak for a long time to rehydrate the soil.

    Same issue with my Marble Queen (Malika). The app says to water her less but the soil gets dry and as soon as I add 3/4 cup of distilled water the leaves flatten back out. It’s also important to look at the kind of pot you have it in. Ex. Malika is in a shallow pot so her soil tends to dry out quicker than the watering advice on Planta. I just put a finger in the soil two inches deep and if dry then water. If she were in a taller pot that was ceramic I would probs follow their advice. This keeps me from overwatering my plant based on its habitat. Hope that also helps!
