@LaBori276 I read that yellowing leaves usually signal stress from overwatering (most common), underwatering, or improper light (too much/little); check if soil is soggy or dry, adjust to bright, indirect light, and ensure good drainage! Nutrient deficiency or pests can also cause yellowing but if you don’t see any pests, and if you have fed it within the last couple months that shouldn’t be it. I don’t think lack of nutrients would cause so many to yellow at the same time like that. It’s probably a watering issue. Make sure it is almost dry before you water each time! πŸͺ΄πŸ˜ƒ
@Gingyhouse I do the same

I definitely don't follow the app πŸ’―

These are tricky

They love water but hate it

I usually let mine dry out before watering again

It just really depends how she's looking
@Gingyhouse Hi Sammy! Mine do well in almost dry soil! They especially like to dry out like @LaBori276 said between waterings! I don’t follow the apps watering schedule either, there is just no way that can know all the environmental factors. So water it when it’s dry only. At least that is what mine likes! πŸͺ΄πŸŒΊ
@Ponytailmom so if the rubber leaves are yellow but still strong and healthy what do u think it suggests? Do u think I need to add some plant food? Anything?
@Ponytailmom I wouldn't add anything right now

Let her dry out and when she's ready to water and a little fertilizer
