# Hello! My Golden Pothos seems to always have a handful of leaves with…

Hello! My Golden Pothos seems to always have a handful of leaves with these brown dead spots on them. What causes this? Aside from this, the plants looks great and is steadily growing. Just wondering what I need to change to fix this issue. Thanks!

This happenes to mines too. Everything else is fine and then randomly I’ll get a leaf like this. I don’t over water and doesn’t get direct sunlight

It’s a good question, I’ve seen this kind of thing also. Hopefully someone has an idea! 🤔

I posted this in a Facebook group and a lot of people said inconsistent watering can do this. I did just up-pot it from a pot that was WAY to small, so it was drying out very quickly. So I'm hoping now that I have it in a proper size pot that it'll do better!
