Help! My monstera just started getting black yellow. I tried giving it a good watering a week ago and it didn’t help. It’s been doing great and all of a sudden, got unwell. I had this same problem with my last monstera. She’s in a north facing window with mostly indirect light. What should I do?

Is there hope! Should I cut the dark leaves off?
