Both these plants have started to get quite yellow (pulled off a few of the bad leaves) - they’ve had enough water and have removed them from direct sunlight - what can I do?

probably just over exposure to light but when did you last fertilize?

I haven’t ever :/

yeah so i would say just let them readjust to its lighting, fertilize and if it doesn’t help then i’d start to worry ab root rot or pests

Yellowing like this can be from too much light, too much heat, too much water or insufficient fertilizer.

Light - A grow light within 1 foot can help or bright indirect sunlight.

Water - Let the soil dry out before watering. Don’t follow a strict schedule.

Fertilizer - Fertilize with diluted fertilizer every two weeks in the growing season. 🍀🪴
