My plant's older leaves have yellowing tips while all new growth is bright green and healthy looking. am i safe to cut off these ugly old leaves?

a good way to tell if you should take them off is if you pull very lightly downward and they break off at the end of the stem, they're no good, if they show any resistance, keep them. pictures would be helpful as well

Cut them off. Don't listen to the tree huggers.

why would you cut off your leaves if the TIPS are yellowing? they can easily recover and are already doing a good job at producing chlorophyll for the plant.

He didn't say if his plant was in flowering or vegetative.
