# My marble pothos has been looking very sad for a week now… as you can…

_Posted by Luna on 2023-12-30_

My marble pothos has been looking very sad for a week now… as you can see in the previous photo, it was very lively. It has been with me for years and I’m hoping I can get it back to how it looked. I started seeing a lot of yellows and droopy leaves so I repotted it, and moved the pot to a location further away from my heater. I also thought it maybe overwatered too…

Does anyone know why my pothos leaves are turning yellow?

usually yellowing leaves has to do with watering. how often do you water it? are there drainage holes?

#### Luna replied on 2023-12-30

I water it every 10-12 days following the schedule on this app. The previous pot didn’t have any drainage hole but I didn’t really have this issue until a week ago :/ but I did repot it to a new pot with drainage hole!

watering when this app tells you to will kill your plants. just use it as reminders so you can put off the reminders as needed. FOR SURE, follow PlantyAnn on the chopstick-soil check and checking the roots for rot.

Is it still sporting new growth?

I don’t think so? 😰
