Don’t use oil to make them shine, as it risks clogging the cells and affecting the ability of the leaves to breathe. The Spruce / Leticia Almeida LightSatin pothos needs bright light but it must be indirect. When exposed to full direct sun, its leaves will lose their variegation and get scorched.If you place the plant near a window with direct sunlight, it will require a curtain to protect it from direct sunlight. SoilUse a commercial indoor potting mix, which already contains nutrients and ensures good drainage through its combination of peat moss, pine bark, and perlite or vermiculite. The plant does poorly in wet, soggy soil.WaterWhen watering satin pothos, the key is to avoid overwatering, which will manifest itself by yellow leaves and the vine wilting.Water only when the top two inches of the soil feel dry to the touch. Poke your finger into the soil to check. Water slowly and deeply with room-temperature water until you see water seeping out of the drain holes. Temperature and HumiditySatin pothos is a tropical plant, which means it needs warmth and humidity. The ideal growth temperature ranges from 65 to 85 degrees F. At a lower temperature, it will suffer cold damage and die. In dry air, the leaf tips can turn brown. Relative humidity at 40% to 50% around your plant is ideal. Increase the humidity by placing the pot on a tray filled with pebbles and water, but in a way that the roots are not sitting in the water.Misting to increase humidity is not recommended because the aerial roots also absorb moisture so it might result in overwatering. FertilizerDuring the growing season, from spring to fall, fertilize the satin pothos about once a month with a complete, water-soluble houseplant fertilizer, following product label instructions.
