I recently transplanted this vine and it seems to be struggling. This one had roots to start with, so should I put it in water first for a few days or straight into soil?

From what I have read, it does not need too much water and in fact should not be overwatered. I also saw that it does not prefer direct sunlight. The yellow on the leaves closer to the roots can mean overwatered but yellow in all leaves can mean malnourished. I pur it in new “moisture control” potting soil.

The burnt leaves can mean too much direct sunlight, so I moved it to a bookshelf away from the window, but that didnt seem like enough light.

I’m kind of at a loss here. Do I need to do something different or just give it time to heal from transplanting? Any insight is appreciated.

I'm happy to help =D

As for the small guy, it's tough to say... Pothos leaves grow from other leaf stems but this section doesn't have one. I do see a darker spot on the new growth, but can't say what's really growing there.

You should post your questions here on this comm! I check Beehaw regularly, but there are a whole bunch of helpful folks who frequent this space.

    That’s true. I suppose others can benefit from seeing the questions and thought processes.

    Side note, I was told this was an Algerian vine, but now that I see you say Pothos and looked that up, it does appear to be a Pothos.
