My poor baby!!! I have no idea what I’ve done wrong. His mother plant looks just fine and is thriving, and he was watered a few days ago. Repotted about a month or two ago and there were no browning roots, there was no wilting, anything. He’s near a heater, but it’s about 8ft away and pointed the opposite direction. He’s abt 6ft away from a humidifier, and 1 1/2ft from a grow light. Any tips? #GoldenPothos
6ft to light, indirect
4” pot with drainage
Last watered 2 days ago
This could be a few things.

It doesn’t have yellow leaves so I don’t suspect overwatering. I’m actually suspecting underwatering.

Terracotta pulls moisture away quickly which makes them great for succulents. But I don’t think it is giving your plant enough time to absorb the moisture it needs.

Although pothos like to dry out between waterings they don’t appreciate being bone dry for long.

I would try watering a bit more often if you keep it in terracotta or, move it to a clay or porcelain pot (that would be ideal). She should perk back up when she starts growing again be sure to give her some fertilizer at half strength so she gets the nutrients she needs.

She should come back well. They are referred to as devils ivy because they are very hard to kill.
@SuperbRaspfern thank you so much!! I’ll give that a shot
Your very welcome ❀️
@SuperbRaspfern I was going to say this exact same thing! Terracotta eats all the moisture
