[@katrinaa.6658]

you know, the reversion on your pothos is actually really beautiful- i'd call it a cookies n' cream pothos now! great video and thanks for sharing- i just got one of these and was curious about the amount of light it needs! :)

Thanks Katrina!!

[@Aqua-Selenophile]

Wow! Your Queen is GORGEOUSSS!! I’ve had mine for 6-7 years and the white is mostly mint green now. Time to place it in a brighter spot 🌞

[@soulfulspec]

Do you know if it will change back?

[@Aqua-Selenophile]

@@soulfulspec so far, my new leaves and some older ones look slightly lighter/more white with more prominent dark green variegation. It looks like it’s going to! ✨ I placed mine in front of a South window with a curtain sheer protecting it from direct rays

[@soulfulspec]

@@Aqua-Selenophile thank you! Hopefully they'll be brilliant white again

[@tafferine]

Thank you so much! I watch a lot of people on plantube and I heard someone say that plants with variegation need low light??? I was really really confused so thank you for talking about that! I also find that the other plantubers talk about the plant in the most common variety instead of breaking it down into smaller varieties like you did with this (it gets kinda annoying after a while because even though it’s the same plant sometimes different varieties have different needs). New subscriber! Thank you!

Super helpful video, thank you!

[@02sweden]

What a beautiful plant!

[@christophermichael.w.7577]

I find that people usually hang them in places where the top does not get enough sun or light. I have found that when I make sure that the top is getting sun light I get a bunch of new growth. I also will cut clippings from them even when I don't want to propagate them because when you cut they grow new chutes and create new vines.I mix in leaf litter with the soil and it seems to help.I have had great luck with pothos.

[@deec9598]

Hi!! Great video on caring for marble queen pothos! Mine is 2 months old and growing well, I love the variegation on it. I’ve let mine sit near a west facing window with bright indirect sunlight & water once a week when top soil is dry but I’m noticing the newer leaves starting to have a slightly creamy yellow variegation instead of the creamy white like yours. Any ideas why this is happening? Thanks!

[@sydneysteadman1223]

Thank you! I just got my first plant. Do I need to fertilize the soil in any way??

hi! nice video,i like it. and your marble queen is so beautiful. can i ask you about my marble queen? i have 1 problem in my marble queen pothos. plz help me what i need to do. my marble queen leaves getting rotten in some of the leaves. specially in the more white leaves. what is the problem of my marble queen and what solutions i need to do to save my marble queen. thank you so much in advance.

[@plantsworld7335]

Super plant

[@patrickandrews42069]

I've seen people prune off the leaves that loose their varigation. Should I cut the jaded part off or let it grow?

[@dalemendoza2697]

Im planning to buy manjula and there are choices if I'm gonna buy the three leaves with more variegation and 5 leaves with greenish looking leaves. What should I pick? Im scared if I buy the 5 leaves with more green leaves thay it will not produce mlanymore variegation

[@qltygrl3187]

Will it grow well and keep it’s variegation with a grow light?

[@kymmyxable]

Im sorry i didn't quite understand the part where you showed the jade unvarigate branch... you said to prune them... so i did 😅 should i propagate it and itll stay and produce jade pothos? 🤔

[@HimanshuSharma-oy9ss]

I was wondering whether propagating the jade green leaves will produce jade green leaves or marble leaves ?

[@ryannarmachain3210]

I keep getting yellow leaves or browned edges on my marble queen, any recommendations for me?

[@amalaugustine2183]

Any tips for long vines ?

[@weareorigin]

Surprisingly, the marble queen does handle low light as advertised....I mean about 100 to 200 LUX of lights. At such low levels, ZZ plants don't want to grow new stems and peace lilies can wither to brown leaves. The grow rate was fine. 5 feet long for green pothos, 1-3 feet long for marble queen, and 2 inches for n joy pothos in the same room.

[@PlantBoy]

Good to know. They are such great plants. Did you have any trouble with the variegation on it reverting back or becoming less of a brilliant white?

[@weareorigin]

@@PlantBoy yeah the 5 feet green pothos was probably the reverting marble queen. At low light, half the leaf is green & half of the leaf is variegated. One stem lost it's variegation on 2 leaves but the 3rd leaf regained the variegation. I didn't trim the stem.

[@helloprime]

Thanks for this! This helped me rethink where to place my golden pothos. Also, when is the best time to repot? How long can this stay in a small pot? My golden pothos has grown so much but doesn’t seem to mind being root bound.

[@PlantBoy]

Hey, Prime. Thanks for checking out the video. I do have a video all about repotting called “repotting 101”. I answer your question and more in this video. To answer your question now, repot during the warmer months of the year. Also, repot once the root formation in the pot has become too large. Ideally you want a bit of room for the roots to grow out. If you can pull the plant out of its pot and the roots keep the shape of the pot, it’s time to repot!

[@helloprime]

Plant Boy mine pretty much comes out of the bottom holes of my nursery pot.... Yup... it’s time to repot lol. Thank you!

[@Pelekila1960]

What makes the edges of leaves turn brown and crunchy, its my first one and wondering what to do to keep this under control or prevent this from happening. Thanks in advance.

[@PlantBoy]

Hi, there. It could be a few things... 1) What is your humidity like? This is most likely your problem. If you have very low humidity, the tropical foliage may turn brown around the edges. Increase humidity with a pebble tray (do a google search), or buy a humidifier. 2) Have you fertilized recently? Sometimes OVER-fertilizing can burn the foliage as the excess minerals settle into the tips of the leaves and cause "fertilizer burn". Pull back on your fertilizer. 3) How often do you water? Letting the plant dry out past the point of seeing the foliage drupe and wilt slightly could cause some leaf damage. If this were the issue, I'd expect you would have entirely dead leaves rather than crispy edges. Hope this helps!

[@Peterrdee]

I got a marble queen and a golden and they are sisters!

[@jackiesunga6348]

Hi! Is your video on taking care of pests available? Where would I find neem oil?

[@nolaray1062]

By this time you probably found it, but I found neem oil at my local nursery and at wal mart.

[@camillerich430]

If ever your pothos loose his white leaves cuz of low light, is it gonna come back in better lighting condition or it will continue grow green leaves?

[@PlantBoy]

Good question Camille. I think it depends on a few factors. Is the leaf now solid green, or does it have a few tones of green that were once white? Take a look at the stem of some of the vines. If the vines are solid green, it is unlikely that your plant will ever turn white again. If the vine has some variation of color, I would bet that if you place it in a much brighter location, the newer growth formed will be closer to a more brilliant white color. Hope this helped, and happy growing!

[@lunamaxwell6190]

I think I have a Snow Queen, a lot more of the white than green. I noticed after watering the white varigation gets lots of brown spots, almost like they rot. I do let it dry out between waterings. Any idea why this is happening?

[@PlantBoy]

It sounds like that could be normal. First, if you believe it to be rot, check your root system. If they are white, fibrous, and firm, it's not rot. Leaves that are primarily white almost entirely lack chorlaphyl, the organelle responsible for turning sunlight into energy. If a leaf is not producing enough energy, it's not uncommon for the plant to stop supplying the leaf with energy. It's for this reason that I think what you're seeing is simply a natural part of the life cycle of the plant. I would say the same to someone who is experience leaf loss at the base of the plant while new growth is happening at the top of the plant. It could be another problem, of course, but if it's happening to strictly older leafs that are almost all white, don't be alarmed. Hope this helps!

[@robinmorales7745]

Now i know the marble pothos

[@youtubelotte]

My epipremnum happy leaf (which is also a variegated epipremnum) it's leaves keep turning brown. What do I do so that the leaves won't turn brown?

[@Pumkinseeds.]

You are probably over watering. Let it get bone dry before giving water and they don’t like wet feet so it needs to be able to drain well

[@kelb6073]

Between this one and the pearl and jade pothos, which one should I put in the brighter room???

[@PlantBoy]

Hey, Kel. That’s a tough question. I would say it depends on the amount of white variegation you have on the plant. Whichever plant has more white variegation is going to need more light because it has less chlorophyll. Hope this helps :)

[@kelb6073]

@@PlantBoy Thanks, that's what I was thinking.

I was surprised by the lighting requirements for this plant. I got one a few weeks ago and it said to put it in low light. It hasn’t been doing well so I decided to do some research. So knowing it needs the opposite of what Home Depot told me to give it is crazy 😂

[@nidhipatel7284]

Photosynthesis is a process.

[@MatteProduction]

My marble Queen is barely growing... It’s in my eastern faced window, I water when the leaves have begun to curl and I still loose leaves due to yellowing or I don’t even know. The cuttings are just as slow... It’s a beautiful plant but I don’t know what it wants 😩

[@justencarlo3343]

In my experience marble queen tends to want water more and light compare to other pothos and I recommend to water it when the pot feel light or when the top two inches are dry.

Hey, Plant Boy! What's your Instagram?

[@PlantBoy]

@plant_boy_yt

[@Nanitamochi]

She's way too pale, she's getting too much sun.

[@PlantBoy]

Hi, Dani De Marchis. What do you mean by pale? You mean the white variegation? I prefer the stark white versus the mint toned variegation that can occur in lower light situations. High light is crucial to maintaining the white variegation as mentioned
