Apa kabar
julietan, be careful not to get water on the leaves, this can cause brown spots. If you ever decide to plant your Devil's Ivy (Pothos) in soil, let it dry out between waterings. Otherwise, this is a beautiful plant

holes2 pic looks like the leaf was crushed and broken. the other hole pic looks like a burn and so does the browning at the tips.
allowing water droplets to stay on the leaves when it's in a window where it gets direct sunlight will cause burns.
pothos doesn't need direct sun...might want to move it away from the window so that it is not sitting directly in the sunlight.

Hi
thanks for all the advice. I have replanted my plant in soil instead of water and the browning thing stopped appearing. I guess its because of this water logging thing that i happened to come across online. read that sometimes the plant will start to turn brown if allowed to submerge in water for too long.

Search The Garden Helper:
recently, i realised that the leaves are starting to brown at the edges and occasionally there are holes on the leaves where the edges of the holes are browning too. I thought it was bugs at first but could not find any traces or tell tale signs of pest problems. the container is placed near the window with ample but not direct sunlight. the climate here is summer and high humidity throughout the year. Could anyone please kindly enlighten me on the possible causes of this?
