If the Pothos in the water starts to dry out, these may be the reasons.

Pothos is a highly valued houseplant. One of its peculiarities is that it can be grown very easily even in water.

However, it may happen that the leaves of the Pothos in the water may begin to dry out.

So let’s see what the possible causes and related solutions may be.

  1. Immerse yourself correctly: when you want to grow Pothos in water, it is important that only the lower part of the stem, which is where the roots sprout, is submerged. If you soak too much, the leaves will begin to rot and wilt.
  2. Change the water: The water in the container that houses the plant should be changed regularly. In fact, it is important that it is always clean and that water stagnation is avoided. You can do this once a week.
  3. Too much limestone: The water contained in the plant can sometimes contain too much limestone. If you notice this particular, you can use rainwater or distilled water.
  4. Too much light: sun exposure, as we know, is a fundamental factor for plants. In this case, Pothos, when grown in water, if exposed to excessive light can dry out. The ideal for this plant is indirect sunlight.
  5. Suitable pot: The ideal container for growing Pothos in water is one with a wide base and a narrow neck, to prevent the leaves from slipping in the water. Also, it should be made of clear glass so that the light affects the roots as well.
