Rookie plant mom

Hi New Monstere Mom here. I’m a little nervous here. There is one leaf that is yellow on my plant. Before I start doing anything drastic, I noticed there is a tiny offshoot at the very bottom near the root of this particular leaf. Should I do anything special at this point?

      if other leaves are yellowing, or start yellowing you’ll want to investigate

      Thank you! Do I cut right above where the new bud is peeling through? Or just the leaf itself? Cut at an angle? TIA!

      yeah just snip it at the base of the leaf. I can’t say for sure without a picture, but I’m thinking the node you’re seeing is an aerial root

      Here is a close up. I tried to use arrows to point to the little node.

      Ah yes, that’s just the spent sheath from when that leaf was new. That’s not new growth or anything. Cut the whole thing off, my friend!
