Why are the stems of my mini monstera turning yellow? and is there anything I can do to fix it?  
I don’t think i’ve been overwatering, but that’s the only thing i can think of that would make it turn yellow. Thanks in advance for any information or ideas!!

I would check the roots. From what I can tell it may be root bound or possibly have root rot. Is it in the same pot that you purchased it in? How long have you had it? 😊🪴

Watering issue is my first guess without seeing the rest of the plant. The leaves are all missing. Insufficient light is the second guess. Lack of sufficient fertilizer can show this result.
