Need golden Pothos help please! Right is not doing well and Left has light green leaves and leggy. Both good natural light during the day, but not direct plastic pot with drain holes.

How long have they been in those pots? I am wondering if they need more nutrients. The one on the right, I don’t think it looks bad, maybe just a little bare. Try giving it a haircut and doing propagations to make the pot look fuller. It will take a while, but it is very worth while. This one had vines that were about 15 feet long earlier this year, but still it was looking sad and bare. I cut it down completely, repotted it into the same pot with fresh soil, added worm castings to the soil, and whatever bare vines I could roll around the pot in the soil, I did. This is him now and he is doing great!
