#PolkaDotPlant losing leaves/ turning yellow/brown

My #PolkaDotPlant is getting very #leggy and #losingleaves and I have no idea how to revive it :( it’s right by a window that receives a LOT of bright but indirect sunlight and I water it according to Greg’s schedule. Any tips would be appreciated πŸ’•

If your Polka Dot Plant is receiving a lot of bright, indirect sunlight and is still becoming leggy and losing leaves, the issue might be more related to its watering schedule or the plant's overall environment. overwatering or inconsistent watering could be causing stress, leading to the yellowing and dropping leaves. Make sure the soil is well-draining and that you're not watering too frequently. Additionally, consider pruning the plant to encourage new growth and to help it become bushier. If the problem persists, you might also want to check for pests or consider adjusting the plant’s location slightly to see if it improves.
Mine did this one day, I literally gave it a good water and the next day it was back to normal. I’d cut it back a bit to encourage new growth
