Pothos "Crying" (Guttation): Normal Process, Not a Problem

What It Is

Water droplets at leaf tips = guttation. Roots build pressure in moist soil, plant releases water through hydathodes on leaf margins. Common in high humidity, moist soil, low transpiration (night/early morning).

Not Overwatering

Guttation does NOT mean you're overwatering. It's a natural pressure release. The plant is healthy.

Leaf Loss on Back Side

Leaves facing away from window drop due to low light after move. Normal adjustment. Rotate plant periodically for even growth.
