Care Instructions for Money Plant Golden (Pothos)
Light: The Money Plant Golden thrives in bright, indirect light but is incredibly adaptable and can tolerate low-light conditions. However, for the best leaf color and variegation, provide moderate to bright light. Avoid placing it in direct sunlight, as this can scorch the leaves and lead to browning.
Watering: Water the Golden Pothos when the top 1-2 inches of soil feel dry to the touch. It’s important not to overwater, as this can cause root rot. Ensure the pot has good drainage to allow excess water to escape. In general, water every 7-10 days, but this can vary depending on the climate and temperature. In cooler months, reduce watering slightly, as the plant’s growth slows down.
Soil: Pothos plants prefer well-draining soil. A standard indoor potting mix or a cactus/succulent mix will work well for the Golden Pothos. If you prefer, you can add a bit of perlite to the mix to enhance drainage and avoid waterlogged soil.
Temperature: The Golden Pothos thrives in warm temperatures, between 65°F (18°C) and 85°F (29°C). It is sensitive to cold temperatures, so avoid placing it near drafty windows, air conditioners, or heating vents. This plant is not frost-tolerant, so it should be kept indoors in colder climates.
Humidity: While the Golden Pothos can tolerate average indoor humidity, it thrives in moderate to high humidity. If you live in a dry climate or during the winter months when indoor air tends to be dry, consider using a humidity tray or placing the plant in naturally more humid areas like the kitchen or bathroom (provided there is sufficient light).
Fertilization: Feed your Golden Pothos with a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer (e.g., 10-10-10) every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer). Avoid fertilizing in the fall and winter when the plant’s growth slows down. Too much fertilizer can result in excess leaf growth but fewer flowers.
Pruning: To keep your Pothos looking tidy and encourage bushier growth, prune the stems regularly. Cut back any leggy or overgrown vines using clean, sharp scissors or pruning shears. Pruning will also help maintain the plant’s shape and prevent it from becoming too unruly.
Repotting: Golden Pothos benefits from being repotted every 1-2 years to refresh the soil and allow for healthy root growth. Choose a pot that is 1-2 inches larger in diameter than the current one. Make sure the new pot has drainage holes to prevent water from accumulating at the bottom.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: How often should I water my Money Plant Golden (Pothos)?
A: Water your Golden Pothos when the top 1-2 inches of soil feel dry. On average, this will be every 7-10 days, but the frequency may vary depending on factors like temperature, humidity, and the size of the pot. Always check the soil before watering to avoid overwatering, which can lead to root rot.
Q: Can the Money Plant Golden (Pothos) tolerate low light?
A: Yes, the Golden Pothos is very adaptable and can tolerate low light conditions. However, for the best growth and vibrant variegation, it thrives in moderate to bright indirect light. If kept in low light for extended periods, the plant may grow slower and the variegation may fade.
Q: How do I encourage more growth on my Golden Pothos?
A: To encourage more growth, provide your Pothos with bright, indirect light, water it when the soil feels dry (but not soggy), and fertilize monthly during the growing season. Regular pruning can also help encourage bushier, more compact growth by removing long, leggy vines.
Q: Can I place my Money Plant Golden in a bathroom?
A: Yes, the Golden Pothos can thrive in a bathroom with adequate light. Bathrooms often have higher humidity, which the plant enjoys, but make sure the space gets enough bright, indirect light. Avoid placing the plant in a spot with direct sunlight, as this can scorch the leaves.
Q: Why are the leaves on my Golden Pothos turning yellow?
A: Yellowing leaves can be a sign of overwatering or poor drainage. Make sure the soil is well-draining and you are not watering too frequently. Yellowing can also occur if the plant is not getting enough light or if it’s exposed to cold temperatures or drafts. Check the light and temperature conditions to ensure your plant is happy.
Q: Can I grow the Money Plant Golden in a hanging basket?
A: Absolutely! The Golden Pothos is ideal for hanging baskets, as it has a trailing growth habit. Its vines will cascade beautifully from the basket, creating a lush, green display. Ensure the hanging basket has proper drainage to keep the roots healthy.
