I have been watering my pothos and have been giving it a lot of light and it still hasn’t grown much even about 2 years later.. should I give the plant some fertilizer?? Besides that the plant is happy

Are you getting reminders from Planta for fertilizing?  
Other than that I don’t know much about pothos

### GreenLeaf comentó el 2023-07-08

Yes! If you haven’t repotted or fertilized in 2 years. I fertilize most of my pothos every 2nd-3rd watering with a regular fertilizer diluted by half.

Thanks for the tip! I’ll see if I can go to my plant nursery and pick some up next week. Any good fertilizer recommendations?

#### GreenLeaf respondió el 2023-07-08

I just use a standard Miracle Grow diluted by half and all my plants seem happy with it. But I’m sure other people have better suggestions.

If it has root rot, that could cause slow growth. I would check the roots before fertilizing because fertilizing fragile roots can be harmful.

#### Melbii \<3 respondió el 2023-07-08

No the plant has no signs of root rot thank goodness

depends on the pothos. some grow slow and some grow (almost) overnight
