# New plant mom here 😊. I'm not really sure what type of plant this…

_Posted by Newbie mom on 2024-11-27_

New plant mom here 😊. I'm not really sure what type of plant this is, but I'm assuming it's a pothos. I took her to a plant house and they told me I was underwatering and they changed the soil. But she is not getting any better. She was on the window but I got growing lights and put it there. She is still getting worse. Does anyone know what I can do?

You may be over watering. I have this moisture thing for plants so I can tell if I'm over or under watering, I would recommend it if you're worried.

Yellowing leaves are often signs of over watering

Thank you! I will definitely look into it.
