This is how big my plant has gotten now. Just look at this thing! I've already run out of stalk for it to climb up.I don't understand why it's not growing more leaves. I see a few leaf buds, a couple of leaflets, even. But mostly it's just making more and more vine. Not enough sunlight, maybe?
I've tried moving it to a sunnier location (the middle of my bedroom floor, very awkward), but I still don't think it's enough. My apartment just does not get that much sun.
Would it help if I nipped the terminal bud off?

Yup! Go ahead and cut it down to size; that will stimulate lateral, rather than just vertical, growth.
Oh buggrit... I seem to have killed it. I don't know how or why. Maybe I had it on the window ledge too near the stove and the steam from my cooking wilted it. *sigh*
