so i’m super new to owning plants/propagation and i just don’t know what’s wrong ☹️ two of the leaves randomly started turning yellow a few days ago and idk what i did differently— a couple of the other leaves don’t seem to be doing too hot either. all of them seem to still be growing roots and i haven’t done anything with them except change the water weekly and leave them by my window for sunlight, so any help would be very greatly appreciated!
i’m also willing to send better pics bc i realize the one i’m using is kinda shitty 😭

Do they have nodes or are only leaves?
if u cant visibly see any rot, my guess is that its just dropping leaves due to the transition. if new leaves are affected, it points to rot or pests etc. but its pretty normal to have leaves die off a bit when propagating, these props look longer than what i usually do, so it probably just doesnt have the energy right now to maintain the same amount of leaves. cant hurt to change the water more too (tho this could stunt growth slightly but still is recommended!)
i can’t tell how many stems are in there, but props with too many leaves can struggle. i usually keep a single leaf on each prop and have 2 nodes submerged.
When propagating a cutting, you want to remove at least 50% of leaf matter. Good to cut and root as multiple sections where you have one leaf and one node.
