I've had my Epipremnum aureum for about four months now and it's finally putting out new leaves after a slow start. I think it was rootbound when I got it, so I repotted into something slightly larger and it's been happy ever since. I'm still figuring out watering though—I let the soil dry out between waterings, but I'm honestly not sure if I'm waiting long enough. Does anyone else struggle with knowing when pothos actually need water, or is it just me?
