Answer by  CHIRAGSHAH (116)

Pothos is an indoor house plant. Watering the plant requires extra care. Avoid excess watering,logging of water at bottom of roots. Soil must remain moist. No direct sunlight for plant,but indirect light is adviseable. Maintain temp arround 65 to80 degree for steady growth. Light liquid fertilizer instead of strong is reccomended. Pot size is also equally important.

Caring of pothos requires a medium to bright light. But it doesn't require direct sunlight. The soil should retain some moisture. And during rainfall and winter,the growth will be slow and no fertilization takes place. The temperature required is of the range 60-85 degrees and retards above 90 degrees. Finally,we have to protect the pothos from the mealy bugs.

Humidity of the pothos should be maintained. Make the potting mix dry in winter in between waterings. We can cut back stems in order to prevent long and gangly grow.
