Pothos Palace

I just brought home this little Silver Sword Pothos. It’s not looking too great but I’m not sure what’s wrong. It was outside when I received but it was about 70 F. Don’t know if it was out last night when temp was lower. I repotted her in a peat moss/perlite/charcoal soil in a plastic cup with lots of drainage. The soil was damp but I did not rewater incase overwatering is the issue. Very small root system but no root rot that I can tell. Now is inside a house where temp is 70-73 and humidity is 40%. No extra humidity has been added to the room, but I also have East facing windows. She won’t be sitting directly on them in her permanent place, but should I set her on a window until she looks better? Thanks for the advice!!!

    Could be shock from transport? Keep watching it. If it starts to look better in a week, it might’ve been stressed. But if the leaves start to get mushy then I think it got exposed to too low temps. That’s my experience with getting plants in the mail but I got them during the winter when temps were low. I hope your plant perks up

    It could have transport shock, new environment shock and you added repotting shock to it. Repotting disturbs and breaks roots interrupting the water intake to the plant. E repotting of new arrivals should be delayed a few weeks unless the plant will die without the repot. Give it time to recover and settle in. Place it in bright indirect light until you can acclimate it to take full sunlight in an east window. đŸȘŽđŸ€
