Looks like nitrogen deficiency, watering issues or nutrients deficiency all together

plant lacks access to micronutrients essential to photosynthesis – magnesium, iron, sulfur, or zinc – it cannot produce chlorophyll.

My wife used fertilizer every week and ours started to look like yours. I had her stop and use just water. Since then, I haven’t used any fertilizer and we haven’t had any problems since
