    Brown spots and edges in houseplants are typically caused by watering issues. I would first check if they are rootbound. That is most likely the cause. This article should help you: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/plant-problems/environmental/what-causes-brown-edges-on-leaves-of-plant.htm

    It needs the same basic care as a regular pothos, with one exception in that it will need more sunlight. Heavily variegated plants cannot produce as much energy from their leaves as their all green counterparts, so they need more light. So, unlike a normal pothos, this one will need medium light.

    Pothos, also known as Devil's Ivy is originally from the Solomon Islands in the Pacific. It prefers indirect sunlight (the edges are easily burned and turn brown quickly if left in direct sun).
    Keep your pothos warm; a minimum of 65 degrees. It also thrives in high humidity but do not over water.
    Hope this helps~

    Most garden supply centers that sell plants will have them available, or can put in an order for you, in some cases, if they're not readily on hand.

    Without knowing your exact conditions, it is hard to say whether you are under or over watering. I would recommend that rather than watering on a schedule, that you water by touch. When you go to water, fell the top of the soil. If it is dry, water the plant, if it is not, do not water the plant. This will ensure you are watering to the plant's needs.
