I've had my pothos trailing across a shelf for about eight months now, and I'm finally seeing it really take off. I kept thinking I was underwatering it, but honestly, I think I was just being impatient. Once I stopped fussing and let it settle into a rhythm, the growth got so much better. Has anyone else found that pothos are kind of forgiving of neglect? Mine seems happiest when I just leave it alone, which is the opposite of what I do with most of my other plants.
