# I’ve got a stem routing on my global green Pothos…any ideas? It’s…

_Posted by Anna on 2024-01-05_

I’ve got a stem routing on my global green Pothos…any ideas? It’s otherwise been a healthy and voracious plant. I water when the soil is nearly all dry. It does have a root coming out the bottom but I wouldn’t think that would cause rot.

Don’t think it’s root rot either. She might need to be upsized. When was the last repot?

She’s rootbound with the root sticking out probs so I’d repot and check and smell for rot when you’re repotting and if it smells yucky and or roots are squishy then rinse roots real good and pot in a larger pot with good draining soil and then adjust the watering in future.
