Harsh direct sunlight can cause scorching around the leaves, while too little light will cause the plant to lose its variegation. An ideal spot for this plant would be in a room with a bright sunny window, without being directly in that windowsill. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWater: \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eSatin pothos should not be overwatered. Water well, but allow the top few inches of the soil to dry between waterings. Reduce watering during the winter, allowing the soil to go dry roughly halfway. Yellow leaves can be a sign of overwatering. Proper drainage is required to avoid damaging leaves and roots. This plant can occasionally tolerate missed waterings but will not be as forgiving of soggy soil.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEnvironment:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e Warm and humid climates are ideal for the Scindapsus.
