  1. “My pothos is 12 feet long 💅”

    (All jokes aside, is there any soil left in that pot? 😂)

    It’s the baby leaf on the tip for me, like girl is really trying here

    How… How is that…. Is she trying to kill it?
    They are so adaptive to different environments and so simple to grow

    I really hope this isn’t a reflection of how she takes care of you

    There’s always a person who hears I’m into plants and is like yeah my pothos is like 12 feet long, I’ve had it for years, I love plants! and then u go to their house and it looks like that and they look at you expectantly waiting for your praise and admiration.

    Sometimes it’s better to cut and propergate than try and save it as it is.

    I have one that kinda looks half like this?

    Like it’s 12 ft but 6 ft is covered in leaves and the other is just a vine lol. I love him ❤️

    Wrap it in the pot with new soil so get the nodes to root and it’ll be fuller 😂

    How did this even happen? Please beg her to chop and prop and then give that thing adequate light. Pothos are hard to kill.

    This is when you chop it to bits and make babies!

    My husband would have trashed that a long time ago. I must admit we are both kind of “plant snobs” having worked in the Interiorscape industry for years. He was the installer and warehouse manager. I was route supervisor and tech. I would routinely cut a vine way back to encourage new growth. That vine could be cut up and rooted. Then planted for a whole new plant.

    Doooooddddddeeeeee, what did she do to it?! It use to be a plant… now it’s just a stick nailed to the wall…

    Potho* theres not enough leaves for it to be plural lol

  15. This makes me a lil sad. I would’ve probably done the same when I was younger and still new to gardening, because you just want it to be long enough so it can drape around the room. But the lack of leaves means it’s not really doing that well, but Pothos are extremely forgiving plants. If she cut it back and propagated the good cuttings, she could make a much healthier, fuller plant. And since it’s a Pothos, it couldn’t be easier to do, and it will fill in pretty quickly. That pot is also way too small to handle the length of vining she clearly wants. A bigger pot with fresh soil, some houseplant fertilizer diluted by half, and maybe a tablespoon of Epsom salt, would do wonders for this plant.

    Time to cut that thing up and make baby pothos

    She has no home! She is homeless! She was never taken out of her plastic container. Her soil has eroded. I am astounded she has the will to survive.

    Buy potting soil, give her food, give her a bigger pot. She will thrive asap.

    Poor girl.

  18. The new growth is sending me. Homie is trying it’s damndest to survive 😭

    Jesus Christ. Put that thing out of its misery.

    I thought it was a cable left behind from wall mounted TV
