Hello everyone!! Do you think this plant is in the wrong type of pot? Or should I put it in a water vase? It keeps getting yellow leaves but it’s steady growing.

I think the pot is fine and or preference. Likely over water -or watering too often(?) (yellow leaves) I also started watering mine from the bottom. It has changed my outcome of yellowing. (This is what worked for me)

Ugh yellowing leaves are the bane of my existence bc literally everything causes them 🙄 too little water, too much water, too little sun, too much sun.... It's sometimes a gamble. I'm noticing that the edges on the yellow leaf there also look scorched, which may be a helpful clue.... I'd probably guess too little water/too much sun. Does that happen to be the leaf nearest to the source of light? That could be helpful information. The pot size seems appropriate for the plant size, though since it's a small pot, it may need slightly more frequent watering. Idk, all just guesses! 🤷
