Help! Yet again I have another sick plant. This is my pilea, and he’s losing a bit of leaves. He’s in an East facing window, and here’s what his lost leaves look like;  
Thanks in advance!

the old yellow leaves usually means over watering, occasionally mine drops a few but overwatering is the case

I looked it up once and if they are domed they it means they are dry and cupping means overwatering. It helps me know when it’s time to water.
