It’s been great watching my pothos grow into this beauty but in the last few days, this single leaf has been turning yellow. Should I be concerned? Everything else seems fine - I water when the top soil dries out and it’s been in the same spot since last year. I’ve not had any other issues since I potted it 7 months ago.

Thanks for your comments!

It may be overwatered because pothos prefer to dry out completely to the bottom of the pot

Thanks, I’ll wait a bit longer before my next watering. Hopefully that helps as this is one of my favourite plants

It might be overwatering, you should check the roots and make there’s no root rot

Not sure if you’ve come across this explanation, but it could just be age! Sometimes old leaves just do that— if this leaf has been there for a long time and it’s the only one that seems to be having problems, that’s likely the cause ☺️

Thanks Carter, I’ll just leave it and see

A tip I received recently is to leave that yellow leaf. It could be overwatering like others have suggested, it could also be age like Carter said. The best way to know for sure is to leave the yellow leaf and monitor for a pattern. (and check those roots!)

Also I’m a big proponent for getting plants out of nursery pots asap. The plastic holds onto water too well and doesn’t facilitate air flow
