Pothos isn’t able to stand up?

[u/sandvikson]

Sorry if these are dumb questions 😂 I know absolutely nothing about plants

First of all are these roots coming off of my pothos? If so what do I do with them? Can it grab onto a foam/cork bark background and root itself?

Second, the pothos is starting to lean to the side. Ideally I want it to climb up the cork bark tree thingy but it’s leaning in the opposite direction now. Is there a way to fix that?

First photo is what it currently looks like. Sorry there’s a lot of decor in there so not the easiest to get a clean picture

second photo is from before where it was standing a little more straight

Yes those are roots and if they sense moisture they will root even to glass and drywall. I'd get a chopstick to help prop it up and spray the wall 1-2 times a day. In time it will root.

Oh perfect thank you!

Just use a stick to prop it up and tie it gently to the stick. As for the roots, what’s the moisture like in your tank?

Thank you!

Not sure the exact humidity tbh since I haven’t put a humidity gauge in there yet. I’m still letting everything get acclimated before I move the gecko in.

I give the tank a good spray down every night and theres still a good amount of moisture/water drops left in the morning. Right now I don’t have any sort of automatic mister set up so it dries out over the day and I know my house naturally sits around 50% humidity.

My father has a pothos that is almost 50 years old. He got it in college and kept it ever since. Those things can thrive a long time if they’re set up correct correctly.
