Hi there, is it correct that there’s no drainage holes in your pot? Wet soil is usually the reason leaves turn yellow and brown like that. If there is indeed no drainage holes and you’re a new plant parent, I recommend repotting this into a pot with holes in the bottom. You have much more control that way over what happens to the plant a roots. If you’re choosing a new soil you can use an ordinary potting mix but my number 1 tip is to also buy some perlite and mix in 20% of it into your potting mix. Perlite helps brilliantly with aeration of your soil.

What can also happen is that older leaves which are closest to the soil on the vine also do naturally die off over time so it could just be that.

Best of luck and please feel free to ask any more questions! 🌿🌿🌿
Could be over watering or under watering. How long have you had the plant? Also, it will do best in a pot that has drainage so the roots can breathe. Maybe move it closer to the window too.
