# Hello! My Monstera is turning yellow and I believe I know the…

_Posted by Neicy on 2024-01-27_

Hello! My Monstera is turning yellow and I believe I know the problem! I watered it before checking the soil and a few days later 3 leaves turned yellow. I’m guessing it is due to overwatering because my plant is also letting off water droplets. It’s been a few days and I do not notice any other leaves yellowing. How can I solve this problem? I’m thinking to prune the yellow leaves since the rest haven’t turned and let the plant dry out before watering again? Can you guys give me some tips to proceed going forward?
