I've had my Epipremnum aureum on a bright shelf for two years now, and I'm still working out the watering rhythm in my dry climate. The soil dries so fast that I'm tempted to water constantly, but I've noticed it actually thrives better when I let the top inch get properly parched. Curious if anyone else grows pothos in arid conditions and what your approach is—does the drying out faster than people expect actually suit it better?
