I don’t know why some of my leaves are yellowing- could someone help, thank you 😊 I have a grow light on it about 6 to 12 hours a day, is that too much. Otherwise it doesn’t get light.

When was the last time you fertilized? Watered? Repotted?

#### Plantina ha respondido el 2024-09-28

I repotted about 1 month ago and used new fertilizer and i went about 2 weeks without watering. I just watered yesterday. I was scared to over water 😭 lol

#### Kades ha respondido el 2024-09-28

Can you post a pic of your fertilizer. I’m also suspicious of the watering situation but sunny covered that well!!

Did you let it over dry before watering?

#### Plantina ha respondido el 2024-09-28

It was dry before watering but I wasn’t sure if it was over dry 😬 when I checked the soil, it was dry

Two weeks is a long time without water for this size pothos. It takes awhile to rehydrate the whole plant. The leaves will yellow and die off as the plant rehydrates.

#### Plantina ha respondido el 2024-09-28

Ahhh! Thank you! Would you say 1x per week?

#### Sunny ha respondido el 2024-09-28

Water when the soil dries and not by a schedule. Use a chopstick and check the soil all the way to the bottom like checking if a cake is baked. A wet chopstick means wait another day and check again. A dry stick means water now. Don’t blindly trust water meters or Planta’s watering schedule.
