Definitely cut them off. If they feel droopy it’s overwatering if they’re crispy it’s probably lack of light. If you’re still unsure, take a look in the soil to see if there’s any root rot or fungal issues.

I just re-potted and she was very healthy could it just be from shock?

#### Zack replied on 2025-08-23

It’s possible. Did you only go up by an inch or so? If the roots aren’t near the bottom of the new pot, the water will never dry out of the bottom.

The pots a little bigger but the roots were very close to the bottom

Ok, hmm not sure. Could be shock but to me with all that in mind, I’d think a light issue since all the yellow leaves are in one streak clustered together. Rest of the plant looks very healthy!

If you recently repotted you could have just aggravated a few roots. Just clip them and keep an eye on it
