8 Warning Signs Your Pothos Is Begging for Help

Yellowing Leaves If your Pothos leaves turn yellow, it could be a sign of overwatering, poor drainage, or nutrient deficiencies. Check the soil moisture and adjust watering practices accordingly.

Brown or Crispy Leaf Tips Brown, crispy edges can indicate underwatering, low humidity, or exposure to too much direct sunlight. Ensure your plant is getting the right amount of water and humidity.

Wilting or Drooping Leaves Drooping leaves may mean the plant is thirsty or stressed from extreme temperatures. Check for proper watering and avoid placing your Pothos in drafty areas or near heat sources.

Stunted Growth If your Pothos isn’t growing, it might need more light, water, or fertilizer. Consider adjusting the plant’s location for brighter, indirect light and feeding it with a balanced houseplant fertilizer.

Leggy or Sparse Growth Long, stretched stems with sparse leaves can be a sign of insufficient light. Move your plant to a brighter spot with indirect sunlight to promote fuller growth.

Brown Spots on Leaves Brown spots could indicate a fungal infection or too much direct sun. Remove affected leaves and ensure your Pothos isn’t exposed to harsh sunlight or overly humid conditions.

Leaf Drop Excessive leaf drop can be due to environmental stressors like drafts, temperature fluctuations, or sudden changes in light. Keep your plant in a stable, suitable environment to minimize leaf loss.
