Problems :
1. Growing so so so so slow.
2. The leafs are turning yellow from the bottom to the top [ its the second time when this happened and I did cut down the dead leafs ( 3 of them ) ] Do I need to cut this ones too ?
3. I think the plant is not looking very well or healthy, it looks strange to me. Any opinions ?
Thank you and sorry for my bad English .
