Leaf colour change
Jade Pothos -
One of the leaves has just recently changed colour to a more yellowed presentation compared with the other leaves on the plant. Is this of concern? Is there something I should be doing differently?

If it's just the one leaf I would not be too concerned. But, I do want to make sure your pot has drainage. These really don't like to have wet feet and it's really important they dry out completely before watering again.
With that being said, use a lot of caution if you keep it in a pot without it. Lack of drainage allows no air to reach the roots. That lack of air/oxygen creates a breeding ground for bacteria to grow and thrive. They eventually start multiplying and feeding on your plants roots. So if you start getting more yellow leaves that will be your clue that root rot is indeed starting.

That is perfect! It will really help. I'm glad you unplugged the drainage hole. I'm not sure why they sell them with rubber stoppers in! Genius idea for the tacks to lift the pot so it's never in water. I love that and it's all great now.
