Please help me diagnose my Golden Pothos. Was doing great for so long, now the leaves yellow, wither, and fall off. Vines are long, with under 10 leaves. I follow Plantas watering schedule, and I’ve noticed it take a while for plant to drain. Help!
What soil are you using? Looks quite dark and compact is it a pre made mix?
2 J'aimeStandard potting soil. Just watered it so looks dark

If it were my plant I’d chop and propagate

Overwatered for sure! Let it dry completely (about 1 and a half weeks) and stick to misting for a bit to see how much water is preferred by the plant!
2 J'aime Yea I don’t think you’ve got enough drainage
1 j'aime I am however exceptionally new to this but getting right involved
0 J'aimeSo I’ve let it dry out completely quite a few times, even skipping waters. I’m thinking it doesn’t have enough drainage!
1 j'aime If you’re using just top soil, this compacts quite a lot, which makes drainage hard also in a terracotta pot, as said before you might want to prop it. Get some clear well drained pots. Even some clay balls or something to keep air in the soil

So this exact thing happened to my plant as well. This is what I did. I took it out of the original soil washed and clean the roots. Got a little bit of a bigger pot because it seemed crowded. Then I put new soil and fertilizer and let the plant relax I water when needed and it is now just starting to come back. It looks great. Good luck to you. One more thing, my plant was hanging in a window. So I cleaned all around the window. There were a few spiderwebs just to make sure that it had a nice and clean place.
