Anyone know why my medium is doing this? I water about every week and half to 2 weeks. Fertilizer once a month. I haven’t gotten any new leaves in about 2 months. Just the stems getting longer. Can I cut them?

It gets about 3-6 hours of sun everyday. Usually about 3.5. Because we have been having fog in California.

Tee JayPlantfluencers will say that this means lack of light. But when my scindapsis do this it means I’ve been underwatering. You can cut them because leaves likely won’t grow out of the nodes unless they’re activated by another cut somewhere else on the plant

I did move it. Because my begonia was blocking it. That was about 1.5 months ago. It still keeps growing like this.

I don’t have one of these but she said about ~3 hours of sun — that can’t be enough, can it?

I didn’t suggest moving it. I was saying that it might mean it needs more water

It is in a smaller pot 3 inch I believe. Maybe 4. I may not be watering it enough with it being a smaller pot.

i’ve lost the plot here lol. you really just need to get this plant more light. 6 hours bright indirect at a minimum I would think — and with more light it will probably want more water eventually

GregYeah, call me a plantfluencer, but I'm with eatyacarbs 😂 The leaves aren't showing signs of dehydration to the same degree the vine is showing signs of lack of light.

MaraAny plans for a climbing pole? Do you see how this growth of runners is happening horizontally? It’s seeking more space, something to climb and help it grow vertically. I’m not sure that it’s worth trying to propagate at the moment imo. Let it get longer or snip and to activate a new growth point. I’m interested to see what it does for you?

When I got it. It was super tiny. It was a “starter” plant I had to buy 2. I didn’t figure it needed a pole quite yet because it wasn’t that big. I will definitely be transferring it to a bigger pot.

I get that, initially we want to see or figure out what it wants to do. Since it is small, you probably already know but there are lots of choices for your little guy if you want to try. I sometimes use these small moss supports to give my small climbers at head start and they do the job. Amazon has those hard plastic cylinder types but I haven’t tried it.
