Need advice… My baby has lost so many leaves. I repotted him awhile back and everything was going great. Nothing else has changed. He was repotted and put back in the same spot. The only time he gets moved is to water him and then he gets put back. (He is in a south facing window)
It’s not getting sufficient light based on the distance between the leaf nodes. The gaps between the nodes at the base of the vines are short. That’s the gap distance when it was at the nursery in adequate lighting. Big gap lengths are created when the plant is searching for light. It concentrates on growing length. I recommend moving it to a location that gives bright indirect light for at least 8 hours. Use a grow light for at least 12 hours a day. I recommend cutting off all the vines with the big gaps. It’s using up a lot of energy. Only keep the plant inside the circle. See the picture. Fertilize in warmer months. Let the soil dry out more. Don’t water using a schedule. Verify the soil needs water. 🍀🪴
Ok. Thank you so much! I will definitely move him.

Cut them into 2 node sections. Place at least one node under water. Remove all leaves that are underwater to prevent rot. Place in bright indirect light. Use diluted fertilizer and SuperThrive plant vitamins once the roots start to show. Clean the water when it’s cloudy. Plant in well draining potting mix when the roots are at least 2 inches.🍀🪴
