@ImmenseBorage Hi Felicia 👋 Yellowing Pothos leaves usually mean that it's been over watered. Remember not to water unless the top couple of inches of soil are dry. You can check by putting your finger in the soil by feeling it or use a chopstick by sticking it down into the soil. If the stick is wet or darker in color come back and check on it in a day or so. Nine times out of 10 a plant will die from over-watering. So it's best to err on the side of underwatering. Even if the app tells you that it's time to water your plant always check your plant first. Think of the app as a reminder that you need to check your plants to see if they need water not necessarily telling you that you need to water. I love those Verigated leaves!! They're so pretty ☺️💚
Check the Soil:
Feel the soil to see if it's wet or dry. If it's soggy, reduce watering and ensure the pot has good drainage. If it's dry, give the plant a good watering, ensuring the soil is thoroughly soaked but not waterlogged.
2. Adjust Light:
Move the plant to a location with bright, indirect light, away from direct sunlight.
3. Inspect for Pests:
Check for any signs of pests like mealybugs, spider mites, or scale, which can also cause yellowing.
4. Consider Fertilizer:
If you haven't fertilized the plant in a while, a balanced fertilizer can help provide the necessary nutrients.
