My pothos has been thriving despite me fighting off mealy bugs since November. But now, over the past two weeks, about 75% of the leaves have turned yellow. The soil is very dry even though I watered it a few days ago and these spots have developed. I typically water every 10-14 days and live in a very dry climate. Am I under watering my plant or are the bugs running their course??

    Have you checked for root rot?

    I haven’t. I’ll check now. What should I be looking for?

      Check for soggy, waterlogged soil around the roots. Often the roots will just fall off really easily if they are rotten.

      Ok no root rot, but I think I need to repot him.

    looks like she just needs repotting. when there's more root than soil in the pot, water runs through really quickly.

    Did you repot and did it help? I repotted my marble queen around the same time as you bc of root rot. I thought I cut all of it off and I put the plant in a well draining pot. Since then one leaf has begun to look like your yellow ones. I can’t figure it out.

      The same thing is happening to my marble queen. But this photo you shared looks like a Manjula pothos.
