what's wrong with my pothos? recently it's been very droopy and sad-looking, with some yellowing leaves. i know it could be the transition to winter (it's been chilly recently) but i'm not sure how to ease this transition. it's currently in a hanging pot right next to a north-facing window, and the yellow leaves are more crunchy and limp than mushy. any tips are greatly appreciated!

    Seems really root bound but healthy roots. I would go up 2” in pot size with chunky soil mix and drainage holes.

    thank you so much! i'll do that ASAP. do you think it's fine to repot in the winter? i hear mixed opinions.

      To help the plant, repotting other than Sunday is ok, i hope it just needs some alone time!

      Looks like you got good responses. I think inside plants can be re-potted anytime.

    I would imagine repotting in winter would be fine. In my experience, it’s pretty hard to kill a pothos.

    Now that it's getting drier, I'm starting to use my humidifier. That and misting more frequently might help as well.

    I repot whenever it is needed, this one definitely needs a larger pot!

    As others have said, needs a repot. I repot all year round, the pothos will be fine :)
