if it’s an older/lower leaf, it’s perfectly normal.

it’s most likely due to over watering that’s what yellow leaves mean

Thank you for the comments! It definitely has not been overwatered. I have been careful with watering and I use a meter also (love it!). It probably needs to be repotted but I have heard it is not a good idea this time of year 🤷🏽‍♀️

yellow leaves can mean a watering issue but if you’re watering fine and the plant is overall healthy, the lower leaves yellowing and dying are normal.
