Octopus amate problem

It’s having issues lately. Leaves are turning quickly from pristine green to more and more yellowing as shown. Had for about a year and this is the first time I’m seeing this over quite a bit of the plant. I’ve seen it occasionally effect one just one petiole but never several at once.

Any ideas? It gets consistent humidity, sun, water (checked using a soil meter prior to watering). Had a bunch of scale show up and have manually cleaned them off. I’ve never seen so many turn if it’s just due to scale?

I would guess it’s a nutrient problem. Maybe nitrogen or iron. Looks like chlorosis.
