How’s the soil and roots? Did you let it dry out before watering again? It could also just be that the leaf is old, in the pic the new leaves look okay?

#### Abby ʚїɞ antwoordde op 2023-07-26

I thought I did but it can be hard to tell because the soil is so packed down… the other leaves do look okay which is good! It’s just that main yellow one and the one behind it is turning a little also

#### Tiffany antwoordde op 2023-07-26

It may benefit from faster draining soil hats not packed down ☺️

That sounds like it would help thank you

Try repotting in a bigger pot

#### Abby ʚїɞ antwoordde op 2023-07-26

I’ll probably try that! Thanks for the tip

Your welcome!

this is actually not a monstera, but a raphidaphora tetrasperma (not sure if u knew, i know it’s the common name so you may already know sorry if this is repeated!)

Thanks for letting me know! That’s a cool plant name 🌱
