HELP! I moved her to a spot she could grow longer but she sees sad over here, is this over watering or because of sun coming through the window? There’s not a direct sun that hits her throughout the day though

I recommend moving it to a location that gets 4 to 6 hours of full sun in colder months and over 6 hours in the growing season. You might need a grow light. Gradually move the plant closer to the window so it can slowly acclimate to direct sun or it can burn. I recommend cutting off over half of the length on all vines to build fullness. I would cut off all of them right at the pot leaving only 3 or 4 nodes on each vine. Split the cut vines into multiple sections leaving at least 2 leaf nodes on each section. Propagate the cuttings back into the same pot. Poke a hole in the soil with a chopstick or pencil deep enough to bury a node. Dip one node in rooting hormone powder. Bury it in the hole deep enough to cover at least one node. Watering will eventually fill the holes with soil. Your size pot should be able to hold 15 to 20 vines. Allow the soil to dry 1 to 2 inches before watering. Add liquid fertilizer once a month in colder months. I just use Osmocote fertilizer granules in the soil. They last about 9 months. Add plant vitamins to boost growth (SuperThrive). You can propagate some cuttings separately in water, soil or other medium since you will have a lot. I’ve done this method with my syngonium three kings (pictured) and tradescantia Purple Heart when they grew leggy due to lack of light. Good luck🍀🪴

It stays outside in full sun all year living off rain water. It’s a home for baby lizards and my dogs chase them, unsuccessfully!😀 So, I keep this on higher ground and let nature grow it.
