POTHOS MAKEOVER

I had to take your pothos from this to this. We've been lied to about pothos. They are not low-light plants. So the first thing you're going to have to fix is its lighting situation. This is what happens when you give your pothos enough to survive, but not thrive. Pothos want a consistent place backed up from west, south, or directly in east facing window! All day light. Don't know extended afternoon direct sun. Proper lighting will get you leaves as big as these and some really intense variegation and color. Light doesn't solve its own problems, though. The next thing you'll have to do is prune. You see how bare this vine is? This is what we call leggy growth. Long, bare, weak stems with big spaces between small leaves. What you want to do is take a bare vine and chop it exactly that spot that you would like new growth to restart from. Pruning removes bare vines on a leggy pothos. It redirects the plant's energy to activate dormant leaf nodes, encourages branching closer to the soil, and stops further stretching caused by poor lighting. This vine is totally bare. I'm going to chop it right above that first node. This creates a denser, fuller Pothos overtime and help the plant retain its bushiness up top. Brighter light equals bigger, more colorful leaves. (sometimes even fenestrations). Consistent pruning equals denser, bushier growth. That's how you go from this to this. Leave me your pothos questions below.
