Does this plant needs to be repotted?

#JadePothos this is one of my oldest plants (4 years or so) and I never repotted it because it seemed to be doing well enough, it’s on a darker room in the house. But this summer she’s been growing new leaves like crazy, but they also seem to be yellowing more often. I feel like it is trying to tell me it wants something but I dont know what!
10ft to light, indirect
7” pot with drainage

I guess my issue is that it’s growing new leaves outwardly and looking kind of bald? I was checking the pictures and it looks really healthy so I wanted to clarify!
That pot does seem a bit small for that huge pothos! I would definitely try repotting and it will probably grow even faster and be even healthier! 😊 🌱
@AliveMymumrose Hi Luiza, wow that is a beautiful pothos! 🀩😱 I *would* recommend repotting into a slightly bigger pot, as what I think is happening is that with four years of good root and leaf growth, your pothos is probably drying out and becoming dehydrated faster than they used to. This is often my main indication that I might need to repot; when they need more and more water. ☺️ I hope they continue to thrive under your care!

When you repot, you can also wind a few strands around the top of the soil, so that multiple nodes are touching it. This will help fill out some of those bare areas.
Very beautiful! I hope a new pot helps!
Hi Luiza, yes I would repot it. Especially if if it’s never been repotted or if it’s previous part, was almost the same size. οΏΌ
