House plant help

[acupofteamakeseverythingbetter]

Hello,

Please could some let me know why my plants leaves might be turning yellow?

The internet suggests it could either be overwatering or under watering which isn't helpful. I water once a week and last week I gave it one of those 4 week drip feeds which it took within a few days! So I wonder whether it need more nutrients.

Any advice would be appreciated. I've had this plant for years (can't remember the name 🙈) but it's started looking very sorry for itself in recent months and I fear that it needs a little more TLC

I did repot into a bigger post a few months back but maybe it needs a bigger pot?

Thank you

It could be a philodendeon. Likes to be warm, out of direct sunlight, mist the ,eaves, repot every 2 to 3 years. It's a tropical plant so you need to recreate that environment.

Or it could be aglaonema but the care us the same. Brown edges can be the air is too dry

Thanks @DogsSausages I do have it on the windowsill so I'll move it away from direct sunlight to see if that helps

Misting house plants seems to be a new thing. I had a plant do that after I misted it. Now I keep a dish of water close by to moisten the air.
It is annoying that over and under watering can cause the same effect.

Some of the leaves look quite healthy. I would cut away the yellow leaves so that the plant can put its energy into the fresh ones. If you can water it from the bottom then, when the soil is moist let it drain for a bit.

I would not feed it but you could try changing the soil using houseplant compost.
