Pothos ‘Neon Queen’ Care
Light: Prefers bright, indirect light but can tolerate low light; avoid direct sunlight to prevent leaf scorch.
Water: Allow the top inch of soil to dry out between waterings; avoid overwatering to prevent root rot.
Humidity: Thrives in average indoor humidity; mist occasionally or use a humidifier if the air is very dry.
Temperature: Keep in a warm environment between 65-85°F (18-29°C); avoid cold drafts and sudden temperature changes.
Soil: Use a well-draining potting mix, such as a blend of peat moss and perlite.
Fertilizing: Feed with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer); reduce feeding in fall and winter.
Pruning: Trim back leggy growth to maintain a compact shape and encourage fuller, bushier growth.
Repotting: Repot every 1-2 years in the spring to refresh soil and provide space for root growth.
Pests: Monitor for common pests like spider mites, aphids, and mealybugs; treat with insecticidal soap or neem oil if necessary.
Propagation: Propagate by stem cuttings; ensure each cutting has at least one node and place in water or moist soil until roots develop.
Support: Can be grown in hanging baskets or trained to climb a trellis or moss pole for added visual interest.
Leaf Care: Wipe leaves with a damp cloth to remove dust and keep them looking vibrant and healthy.
