Does anyone know why this is happening? This picture specifically is a pothos pearl and jade, but this is happening to my other pothos and one of my syngoniums as well 😢

It can be too much or too little water. Check the roots for rot which indicates overwatering.

Too low light can cause yellowing and leaf drop. 🪴🍀
