# My snake plant has been having a few leaves turn yellow/ brown over…

My snake plant has been having a few leaves turn yellow/ brown over the past few weeks. I usually just pull the leaves out like the one pictured but I think there’s a bigger issue happening that I should address. Should I repot the plant?

You may want to at least check the roots. I'd also make sure the pot you have it in isn't too large. They like to be root bound. How often are you watering? I tend to water my snake plants very infrequently. Typically every 6-12 weeks depending on how much light they are getting. 😊

I’ll check the roots, thanks! I water once a month and add fertilizer during that one water
