# I am brand new to plants and 2 days ago bought this global green…

_Geplaatst door Capy Plants 🪴 op 2024-03-10_

I am brand new to plants and 2 days ago bought this global green Pothos. It seemed in great condition until now because some of the leaves are drooping and a few brown spots have appeared. Is it a problem with watering? Too much sunlight? Help would be appreciated 😅

To much water maybe  
I’d need a better picture to be sure

My best guess is overwatering but I’d wait for a second opinion

Does that pot have drainage?

Chrissy is the drainage god. For my pothos, I never repotted it but I do make sure to not overwater. I only water when the soil is dry for the top inch or so. I will definitely take Chrissy’s advice when it comes to her medium mixes in the future. She preaches for perlite!!

It came in a weird pot when I got it. I think so, but water is stored in the bottom of the pot and apparently waters the plant by itself.
