I just transferred my pothos cuttings into soil about a week ago, and the leaves are turning yellow. Anyone know why?

looks overwatered, does it have a drainage hole?

I just watered it before i took the pic that may be why it looks so wet, yes it has drainage

I agree. Soil looks really wet.

Sometimes pothos yellow if they don’t have enough humidity/moisture. If it is dry where the new propagations are you may want to try making a humidity dome over them out of a ziplock bag or clear container until they adjust/ root more.

Root rot? Or shock. I’ve had better luck propagating in water vs soil.
