# Help! I got this white princess about a month ago and shortly after…

_Gepostet von Magpies am 2024-10-13_

Help! I got this white princess about a month ago and shortly after she started turning yellow on the two biggest leaves. I've followed the watering schedule on here, I give her filtered water, and I have a south facing window so she gets light all day. She is about 6ft from my window. I have tried putting her next to the window but it made it worse. I also have a privacy sticker over my window but idk if that helps filter the light. The good thing is shes growing new leaves but the yellowing won't stop :'c

I don’t know much about these plants but I do know that it may be being overwatered. I quickly realized that the watering schedule was too much for my area and my plants. I use it as a reminder to check my plants and only water when appropriate. Yellowing leaves such as these can be a sign of overwatering.

I'm thinking overwated too but the leaves are crispy instead of droopy and soggy like its underwatered. I'm too afraid to water it more if it's overrated though. I'll definitely use the watering schedule as just reminders to check the plant first before watering

I have a similar problem. i’ve also read it could be under or over fertilizing

#### Magpies antwortete am 2024-10-14

I've never fertilized this plant because it's the end of the summer season but good to know in future

I wish i could just snip the yellow parts 😅
