# The one leaf on my monstera propagation has been getting REALLY…

_Posted by Plantrat on 2026-07-08_

The one leaf on my monstera propagation has been getting REALLY yellow. The other leaves are fine, but I’m not sure why it’s just the one. I’ve been trying to give it more sun but I’m wondering if it’s anything else. Any advice is highly appreciated :\]

Are you keeping them in a cup of water? And if so, are you changing the water often? Sometimes, when you don’t change the water that often enough, then the roots start rotting and that leads to yellowing leaves. Could also just be normal and it’s regular shedding, to make more room for newer growth. Good luck with your propagation!!🪴

Thank you so much! I’ll try changing the water for sure!

Tip for water: You’ll know that it’s time to change the water when it’s murky and dark. Good luck again 🍀

I would change it every three days whether it’s murky or not, and take the yellow leaf off

Sounds good! I’ll do that when I’m able to
