I’ve recently added my new dumb cane to my collection but she seemed to start having some leafs drying up :(

Any recommendations, I’ve stop watering often since it’s colder now and changed the soil and pot!  
Please help !!!

Moving to a new environment and repotting both add stress to a plant. The plant has to acclimate to changes in lighting, humidity, water chemicals and watering frequency. All affect the photosynthesis process. Plus, it has to get used to new soil and repair damaged roots caused by repotting. Stress shows up as limp stems and yellowing leaves.

I recommend letting it sit in a well lit location while it adjusts. You can cut off the dying leaf and wait if you assume it’s not a watering issue. 🍀🪴

It could also need some nutrients.
