Good morning, I have had this Alocasia for 3 months. One of the new leaves started turning yellow about a week ago and this morning seems meh. Do I trim it off or just stop watering for a few days? I think I overwatered last week. Any help appreciated! Pay no attention to the dying succulents.

Trim the dead leaf ✂️

Trimming would be the best idea. But if it was just slightly or partially yellow, you could leave it and see if it gets better/worse.

Trim it off and then wait to water again until almost dry. Also, older leaves sometimes die off when a new leaf is coming with alocasias. I know you said this was a new leaf, but just for future reference.
