My problem child here refuses to grow longer,, he’s been stuck at this length for about a year now. How should I go about creating length and even fullness to the plant?

    I’m still fairly new to the plant world but I’m wondering if perhaps the pot is a bit too big for your plant. Most plants that are potted in a too large pot size will put all their energy made from photosynthesis and fertilizer into root growth, instead of foliage growth. Most of what I’ve read indicates the pot should be no larger than 1-2 inches than the plant/root ball. Maybe trying potting down a few inches and see if that helps with foliage growth?

    I would chop the long vine and put in water to root. Then once rooted you can plant it into the same pot to help with the fullness. And the cut plant will also start to grow more side shoots

      I did this with my Devils Ivy and it made the world of difference!

      I moved him to a wine glass for right now, the roots are quite small so it’s not crowded in there. This is just temporary until I can get a better fitting pot!

    I would cut it and root it, repot in there to help create fullness. That’s what I have started doing. Also, pothos‘s like their roots nice and snug in their pots. They will put their energy into growing their roots before it will start creating more leafs. So if anything, maybe move it to a smaller pot :)
