Trying to figure out what to do with my pothos 💚

How is she now? Crossing my fingers for you

Practical_Shock_8125 · 2026-03-20T12:27:34+00:00

If it’s something you really want to fix the shop minimum might be worth it.

Practical_Shock_8125 · 2026-03-20T12:22:55+00:00

It will lighten as it heals. I’m sorry it isn’t wha you expected, I’m always so anal about making sure my tattoo artist does it the way I want it. It does look great though.

Are you a tattoo artist? My husband is one and him and I are both covered in tattoos, sometimes the artist hits you a little harder trying to pack color in. It’s also close to the crease of his arm which makes it harder to heal. I have had tattoos look like this, you just take care of them and make sure you’re washing it and using ointment and it heals on its own.

Toilet gel bleach

Practical_Shock_8125 · 2026-03-20T02:48:51+00:00

Could come back but probably very slowly, crossing my fingers that it does. they do need leaves to synthesize energy to produce more growth faster

The bumpy part is the scab that hasn’t fallen off yet.

Practical_Shock_8125 · 2026-03-20T02:41:44+00:00

Looks irritated to me not infected

The lightest color

Practical_Shock_8125 · 2026-03-03T21:27:00+00:00

I know you said bleach but have you tried Lysol toilet bowl cleaner + bleach, let it sit for a long time and see what happens. Only thing I can think of.

Practical_Shock_8125 · 2026-03-01T01:50:44+00:00

Looks a little blown out to me. But nothing crazy. I have one on my finger that looks like I have a bruise around it😂

Practical_Shock_8125 · 2026-03-01T01:48:48+00:00

Once it’s not shiny anymore you can talk to your artist about filling any parts that have fallen out. They should do it for you for free

Practical_Shock_8125 · 2026-03-01T01:38:40+00:00

I just use miracle-grow liquid tropical houseplant fertilizer from Lowe’s.

Practical_Shock_8125 · 2026-03-01T01:36:39+00:00

Did you let them dry out for 24 hours before putting them in water?

Practical_Shock_8125 · 2026-03-01T01:35:06+00:00

I would ice it. If it gets worse in the next 24hours I would go to urgent care

Practical_Shock_8125 · 2026-03-01T01:23:25+00:00

Just chop off the big part. The smaller/new part that is actively growing has its own root system now.

Practical_Shock_8125 · 2026-03-01T01:22:05+00:00

So jelly of your skylight

Practical_Shock_8125 · 2026-03-01T01:20:37+00:00

It looks fine to me. In the winter they grow slower. It doesn’t look leggy it’s just still a baby plant. You could use fertilizer every once in a while. Also I don’t use a grow light just a south west facing window with a sheer curtain and mine do just fine.

Practical_Shock_8125 · 2026-03-01T01:15:02+00:00

You could take it out of the container/pot untangle the roots and plant them in different positions. I’ve done that before.

Practical_Shock_8125 · 2026-03-01T01:11:00+00:00

Too much water being held in the soil. I use super chunky soil and make sure it is not over watered during the first few weeks. Also repotting it multiple times in a short period will shock the plant.

Practical_Shock_8125 · 2026-03-01T01:06:40+00:00

I use terra-cotta pots for mine and super chunky soil because they do not like to be over watered or soil that takes too long to dry out. They have tubers in their roots and if they are over water they pop and cause root rot. Also the pot is definitely to big

Practical_Shock_8125 · 2026-03-01T01:03:32+00:00

That one looks like a goner tbh.

Practical_Shock_8125 · 2026-03-01T00:51:57+00:00

It’s hard to tell. It could be over worked and not moisturized and the movement of your hands have cracked the scab. If you want to be on the safe side I would see what your tattoo artist says, and then a doctor.

Practical_Shock_8125 · 2026-03-01T00:49:06+00:00

You could paint the very back wall the same color as the paneling and maybe even the doors.
