Looks like over watering.

looks like it might have been overwatered. i reccomend never misting your plants, even with plain water. it drains the nitrogen from the leaves and the water droplets act like tiny magnifying glasses and create "hot spots". your plant should bounce back though just go easy on water the next couple days

most likely over watering. rember to let the top soil get crumbly before watering

stop watering it for a little while.
unless the soil is dry but if about an inch in its moist dont water.

let it dry out make sure the plant absorbs all the water first.

make sure you give some rep points for this . give ya buddy a few more hours of darkness and also yellowing means you need nutes . like nitrates bro. and you still got to give it recovering time. it doesnt happen over night. but thats what it needs is nitrates so give it a mixture of m.grow the kind that is all purpose for house plants and that should do it and it should recover in a day or so . min recovered in 1 day but some of my foliage is still droopy but thats all
