I also have a dracaena marginata, and mine periodically needs to have the lower leaves removed because they go yellow/brown. I have found that this is usually not indicative of a problem as long as it’s just the lower leaves. It’s just the natural leaf cycle, and this is how they eventually get tall, bare stems that will make them a lovely tree shape. Your browning did not look that extensive, so I think you probably would have been fine with no repotting, especially since the root system didn’t look overcrowded. Another common issue with dracaena is green leaves turning brown only on at the tips. This can be caused by fluoride or chlorine in tap water, and can be prevented by switching to distilled or rain water. (I didn’t see any of that here, just mentioning it for other troubleshooters).

His wasn't in good shape, and would benefit in a larger pot, but it wasn't quite root bound, just very dry. I have also run into the issue with even mildly hard water browning the leaf tips. Found that if I leave my watering spray bottle open for 24-48 hours, it does better than directly watering from tap. I solved the first real bad issues I had by collecting rain water for a few weeks of waterings, and it can withstand water right from the tap occasionally now. Great plants though. Not too difficult once you get the hang of it.

Sadly, for my plants I have been home recuperating since MARCH!! I love to water them. I noticed that if You pick the plant up out of the pot cover pot and it light it needs watering. If it’s heavy it doesn’t. There’s also a watering probe but that’s inexpensive but not as accurate, in my opinion. Also let the plant dry out, BUT when You see the leaves hanging, give it water. But then You can indulge in Your Water Fetish and really make it wet. But let the excess water run out. Also I have learned to go outside more often. Go to a Beer Garten, or do something outside to take my mind off of my Babies. But one thing Homeboy didn’t do and it’s very important when using Terracotta pots is to soak them in a pail of water until the air bubbles disappear. This enables the pot to hold in the moisture, closes the pores/air holes (see I know Some of y’all thought , “Pores? Clay doesn’t have pores. Skin does”) in the clay and ensures that the plant is being watered not the pot. Also when repotting always use a piece of broken pot or plastic to cover but not stuff the draining hole. This enables the excess water to drain and the roots won’t get root rot or the plant won’t be sitting in water. Too much Love is NEVER good. Something will always be hurt or die, be it Plant or Human. And just a tip for the Single Folks here. If You’re invited to a Dates place first look around and check out the cleanliness, but most importantly, if that Cat or Chic doesn’t have any plants, that’s a BAD sign, and if the plants are all dry out and sad looking, that’s how You’ll going to be looking. Because these are living Creatures that need to be cared for. And if that Person doesn’t have that ability? To each Their own but I have followed this guideline and although Single, I am Happily Single out of choice. Just a tip. Thanks for the video. Very informative as usual.

I am a self employed gardener in Central FL, East Coast. I have propagated Dracaena by cuttings and planted them in my yard in the ground. I have a hedge of them and the tallest one is 8 feet. I have worked for other people that have them in their yards. I was amazed to see that they get a lot taller, like 12' to 15'. So don't plant them too close to the house.

I have that plant at home and I can tell you some expanded clay on the bottom would be a right choice. This plant likes humidity but hates soggy earth, that's why some light soil and the expanded clay works perfect. Also to spray once a week some water on the leaves will help not getting the endings dry. And no direct sun, this is a tropical plants and are never to be found in open spaces, they like big trees protecting them from the direct sun, but good light is needed.

With a move, a harsh Canadian winter letting some cold air in, limited sun getting to the plant and a neglectful owner (yours truly), I placed the plant next to the garbage, to be taken out. This morning, after noticing a few green leaves, I figured I’d give KZbin a chance to help out. And there was your video. So, with my morning cup of coffee in hand and some empathy, I cut away the clearly dead, thick stems and moved the plant to a brighter room. Thanks for the tips.

My dracena was going good until I repotted it in the potting mix with perlite. It all went droopy in a couple of months. Local garden center told me that Dracena is lime hating plant and perlite will eventually kill it. I had to soak the plant's rootball in water for several hours before I managed to remove all traces of perlite from its root system. It's back to life again. So how come you recommend perlite for dracena care?

The thing I don't like about perlite is its tendency to 'float' to the surface, thus no longer aerating the soil. I have recently changed to adding one part pumice. Thus far, I have not had issues with it floating to surface of the soil. I also add 1 part of horticulture charcoal, 1 part of orchid bark, and a handful of worm castings to my potting mix. I have had no issues with my plants going into shock from repotting, dropping leaves, or even drooping/wilting following repotting.

I moved the plant outside because we had our house fumigated, when I came back 3 days later the plant lost most of the leaves and I’m not sure if it will survive but the branches is still standing, but maybe repotting is a good idea . The chemicals certainly caused it because I did not moved it far enough in the house, I had that plant for 25 years . And it survived even after 6 weeks vacation.

@zorrokitty796
@zorrokitty796 6 жыл бұрын
Trunk is mushy?? Remove the plant from the soil and trim any mushy, black (dead) roots ASAP. Ponytail does not like wet feet. Water every 2 weeks on average, probably less in the winter. Ponytail likes a well draining soil. I use a cactus mix. But even some cactus mixes could stand to have a bit of extra perlite. Make sure you have good drainage holes. Use a terra cotta pot if you tend to overwater. One thing I am unsure is of whether or not to apply rooting hormone to the roots that you trim. Then put plant back in dry soil and hold off on watering for about a week. Then water thoroughly. Best of luck! So sad to see a plant struggle...Oh and my ponytail is doing better on one side. The roots on the thriving side are already coming out of the bottom of the pot after replanting only 6 weeks later. I am hoping the other side will catch up. I rotate the plant so I do not think it has to do with light.

Overwatering is nr. 1 plantkiller. Neglecting is second. BTW: If you use these kind of pots you always have to water them more because these pots absorb water and because of this the soil dries faster than in a ceramic or plastic pot. The pot he used before was already a bit too big. You can see that with the roots. If the roots are so close to the potwalls and come out of the bottom hole, they definitely need a bigger one. If plants have a too big pot they grow a buuunch of roots but ontop won't happen a lot because of that. And make sure to use a drainage material- as example stones. Place approximately 1-3cm high stones on the bottom of the pot so the excess water can drain from it more easily there. Because if the water can't drain the roots begin to rot and the plant eventually dies. So always check the soil. :)

Pretty sure mine is on it's way to take the big plant nap. The top looks rotten and the stem is a pale color. I tried to keep it alive I was thinking about cutting off the top to see if new leaves would grow since the roots seem fine.. 😩 I feel so bad because it was a housewarming gift.

I’d consider soaking it before repotting, and soaking the pot since it is clay?

I have always found that house plants do much better with RAINWATER rather than tap water with all its additives, they hate fluoride as it affects photosynthesis.

U keep talking about that dracenea being in such bad shape, but it’s not at ALL! I wouldn’t even be REMOTELY worried, just a little guilty feeling that I let it get like that, and can honestly say there’s no WAY that couldn’t be turned around, very easily and very quickly! At that moment that plant is still in relatively GOOD shape. Unless there’s something invisible like u mentioned, as in lack of nutrients, which is rarely gonna be the reason someone’s plant looks like that. all u need to do is water it(I haven’t watched the video yet, I stopped at 1:22)! U can even leave the bad leaves on, and it’ll make a complete perfect comeback, VERY quickly! It’ll just look way better if u remove the bad leaves, but all u NEED to do to make that plant fully healthy is water it well(and continue watering it). Im VERY saddened by the thought that someone like you would even CONSIDER giving up on a plant anywhere NEAR as good as that one still is! Only give up on a plant when the roots have desiccated, or rotted away, and ur sure it’s actually dead!

My garden gets so much attention and yet my poor house plants are neglected ..until I literally hear them gasping and then I guiltily overwater. How they make it through I’ll never know. I have chopped mine back numerous times and it always comes back happy and healthy.

You need to put about 2/3 inches of small stones in the bottom of every pot for drainage, this way the roots will never get waterlogged.

Cut into the roots before planting. Break up that original potting. There’s an acidic juice that’s released that helps the roots grow; it’s not just the fertilizer. Dad proved many experts wrong and won respect from many root expects through his work. If you’ll do this, you can save many plants that Lowe’s places on Clearance.

My plant is dying 😭 and it had a mealybug infestation. I changed the soil, cleaned the plant's leaves with dish soap and peppermint oil, and the leaves all just dropped and started to fall off. I am devastated. I really want to save mynplant because there is new growth. I just dont know what to do because cleaning the plants leaves and caring for the leaves makes it worse! You can see all the little bite marks on the dead leaves where the bugs were.
