dwarf mugo pine issue

[Rubberbandman]

Hi all,
I picked up this mugo several years ago and was just letting it grow out before deciding on a style...this past week i noticed some random yellow needles on an otherwise very happy tree.
Thoughts?
Thanks!

Looks healthy enough to just cut that shit off and go on.

Sometimes when they're real compact like that, just water setting in there at the wrong time of day can gunk up the needle bases enough to get funky, especially with fert in it.

Maybe better airflow....more or different timed sun.

But....cut it!
