did you over water it ?

Tell me Sherly

the leaves that are turning yellowish, are they on the upper branchlets or are they from the bottom branchlets ?

If they're from the bottom branchlets, you're safe, it is not dying it is just through feeding water to the system of the plant and it had no more nutrients to feed the plant, that is why it is turning yellowish. The old must go to make room for the new growth to come through.

If it is on a hot day, I only give it water twice on that day, once in the early morning, and once in the late afternoon.
