    I just transplanted my Pachira plant a month ago. It was turning yellow and looked a bit oversized for the pot. This does not seem to have helped. The leaves are still turning yellow with brown 'patches' (see photo). I've been careful not to overwater and use a meter to make sure the soil is fairly dry before I water. The plant is in a sunroom in the corner facing NW. It was replanted in soil containing bat guano and worm casings (that's all we had at the time), so its getting very well fertilized. I have not misted it but I think I need to start, considering the dry climate in Colorado. Does anyone have any ideas? This is my first post so I'm hopeful that someone can help.

    Thanks so much!

    Get a picture up of the whole plant please! It is easier to see the whole picture of what is wrong when you actually have a whole picture! :]

    Here's a pic of my plant. It looks okay overall, but about 20% of the leaves look like the leaf photo. Sorry I couldn't do better on the whole plant picture.... I'm unable to lift it to put it in a better light due to physical constraints. Any help is greatly appreciated!
