When Pothos Leaves Curl?

When Pothos Leaves Curl?

Pothos leaves curl because of underwatering, overwatering, too much fertilizer, or pests. Leaves can curl for the plant to retain moisture in high temperatures.

Why are my pothos leaves curling?

Overwatering leads to waterlogged soil, and pothos roots can't survive for long in saturated soil. Once your plant roots start rotting, all the water and nutrients needed by your pothos to survive are unable to reach to the plant stems and leaves. This causes them to curl in an attempt to retain water.

How do you fix curled plant leaves?

Especially when older leaves are curling at the very tips of the leaves. In conjunction with this, the newer leaves may be smaller than normal and may have brown edges. To fix curling leaves from too much light, move your houseplant to a location that receives more appropriate light for the type of plant that you have.
