Leaves Turning Yellow on Ivy Plant Growing in Water?

I've had my indoor ivy plant, which I have grown in water, for a couple of years now without a problem. I trim the roots when they get too long and clean off any algae that may arise from the sunlight.

A couple of days ago I did the same and noticed this thick black "scab" all over the stems. Now my leaves are all turning yellow. Anyone, any ideas on how to solve this issue?

I think that is a philodendron or a pothos, not an ivy. Usually, they go yellow when they are not getting enough of something: water, light, nutrients. Since you have been growing them in water for so long, have you been adding any plant food to the water?

I don't know anything about the black scab but maybe someone else will have some other ideas. Good luck.

Nobody knows anything here. So heres my question. For an aloe Vera cutting, whats my best direction? And whats the best nitrogen for a plant based in water generally?
