This is a scindapsus pictus and I haven’t figured out what’s going on. I’m wondering why the leaves are curling up and if it needs more water. Any suggestions are appreciated:)

My pictus leaves do this when they aren’t getting enough water. I noticed this more when I was top watering. Try bottom watering next time to make sure things are getting fully saturated and see if that makes a difference.

I second this! Mine also curls when it needs water

Is bottom watering when I soak the bottom of the pot water?

Yep, I place the pot in a bowl of water and leave it in there until the top of the soil feels wet. Depending on the pot size I may have to add more water if it soaks it all up but the top still feels dry. After the soil is saturated I put the plant back in it’s home and check a bit later to see if I need to drain the cache pot or drip tray. This method also really helps if your soil has become hydrophobic.

Try giving it bright indirect light if it has water. Don’t overwater to prevent root rot.

Fertilize it at least once a month and more frequently in the spring/summer.

Ensure the place you keep it has no cold drafts.

Also, it could be stressed if it was recently purchased.
