Yellow leaves are often a sign of overwatering, poor drainage, or nutrient deficiency. Identifying the cause early can help prevent further damage and restore healthy growth.

Brown or crispy leaves can result from underwatering, low humidity, salt buildup, or sun scorch. Checking watering habits and light exposure is key to recovery.

Root rot is typically caused by excess moisture and poor drainage, leading to decaying roots. Early signs include wilting, yellowing, and a foul smell from the soil.
