Day two of guttation for Philo El Chaco?

I watered my #Philodendron El Chaco Thursday, and we are on day 2 of continuous guttation. I noticed when looking through the light that one of my leaves are thinning/turning yellow. This is the first time I’ve watered it since purchasing this past Monday, and the soil was dry when I did water. He’s been by a humidifier and next to my Silver Dragon Alocasia. How do I help it? Just wait it out? He’s in the original nursery pot still with drainage, and I let him drain completely after watering before putting back in his spot. Help me save him😭🥲 #PhilodendronElChocoRed #PlantAddict #Guttation #NewPlantMom

If they're the oldest leaves and not new ones I wouldn't worry too much. This could just be stress from moving to a new spot.

I’ve always heard that yellow leaves mean water excess, but since the soil was dry I don’t think that’s the problem… Idk how to help you :(((

@RJG ah thank you!! They are the oldest leaves! They are still having guttation, but the newer leaves are doing well, and he even has a new leaf uncurling!🤗@
