# Hey, I’ve had this marbled pothos for quite some time now and I feel…

_Posted by Ella on 2025-05-28_

Hey, I’ve had this marbled pothos for quite some time now and I feel like it’s not doing as well as it could. The new growth is kind of spotty and turning brown in some spots, and in general it’s really not growing as fast as other pothos’s I’ve seen. For quite some time I believe it was lacking in light, as it’s quite far from a window but I recently added a grow light. What could I do to maybe make her feel better?

Adding a grow light was the right thing to do! Now just wait for the plant to adjust
