How to Save an overwatered Houseplant

A customer brought in this plant to our store concerned about the yellowing leaves and thought it might need a repot. Although yellowing leaves isn't always a sign that a plant needs repotted, this plant benefitted from a repot because we got to intervene the root rot, which comes from watering a plant too frequently. The plant in this video is Aglaonema Silver Bay.

Also, your videos definitly deserve much more love than what they're getting. The content is very infromative and intertaining, yet almost no one is seeing it

i can't do a reppoting now without slapping the pot while making eye contact with an imaginary camera

Wish I would have known this before I lost so many of mine last year! It took me until the last few weeks to realize it! once I move them all outside getting more sun they are perked up and thriving! Doubled in size in less than a week. that was the whole problem. It was causing me to over water them.

Great video, very concise but comprehensive I dont think you need to tap the pot though the water will compact the soil next time anyway

I would love for you to do a repotting on overwatered string of hearts. My tubers always turn to mush. I honestly don’t think I’m watering too much but maybe I am. Maybe my soil isn’t packed tight enough. I often squeeze the pot to aerate it so it dries quicker.

I’ve seen a lot of garden KZbinrs make that claim, that air pockets in soil mean the roots will dry out. But scientifically speaking it’s not true unless we’re talking about air pockets at the outside edge of the pot where the soil pulls away from the pot. Air pockets in moist soil will be very humid, and should cause no problems whatsoever. In fact there are aeroponic systems (a specific type of hydroponics) which rely partly on air humidity to function. Not to mention, many of the tropical plants we keep in pots are naturally epiphytic, and grow in rainforest tree canopies where they receive irregular flow of water and nutrients with their roots in (humid) air most of the time. So the idea that air pockets in soil would be a problem doesn’t hold up to scrutiny. With that said, I did find this video helpful. One of my tropicals was drowning and I’ll be getting it back on the path to recovery this afternoon. Thank you for the walk-through.

I appreciate the thoughtful comment! It’s true, small air pockets are a hugely wonderful thing for root development and health! What im trying to avoid are very large gaps. The goal here is to let the size of the air gaps be dictated by the ingredients used in the soil so that a standard is maintained. By settling in the soil we avoid bottlenecks that can leave roots so far away from any source of moisture that they dry out and die off. I’ll admit, this isn’t a super common occurrence, but when troubleshooting it’s nice to know that all precautions were taken in the soil because it’s not something you can see unless you take the soil apart.
