I haven’t watered my Pothos in about 4 weeks. Are the yellowing an indicator of underwatering? My other Pothos are fine with my watering schedule.

    Does it sit in a bowl of water for 4 weeks? I can’t tell from the picture. This could be overwatering.

      Oh no, I sat it in the bowl today for watering.

    It’s definitely could be underwatered. If it’s bone dry right now, give it a good soak and drain. Don’t water again until the soil is dry. Slowly adjust it’s watering schedule until it’s back to your normal times.

      Thank you. I think the under watering is the problem too. I didn’t even notice I was watering my pothos once a month.

    Pothos need water about every week. But keep in mind old growth just gets yellow and drops after a while. So if it’s just one leaf you may not need to worry.

      this was very helpful! I have one yellow leaf at the bottom of my pothos and I could not figure out why. 😅
