I am new to plants (7 months and trying) Fell in love with my first plant, a beautiful Dracaena Lisa. Im so happy to be here and hope to make a ton of plant friends! I hope I learn more about how not to kill my plants. My Dracaena has been sick for the last two months, fingers crossed after re-potting she starts feeling better. Yes, she is a she! ❤️ Looking forwars to being part of this community! ![1件中1件目の添付ファイル](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/kZsMDuzBiW0Nswt2hTxo6GcYENZPFNl6z6OfR8a5Ibc/WxKhxNOKRfyeHiudSHmfSw.webp?size=large) ## 16件のコメント ### K’s Plantsさんが2024-02-22にコメントしました Welcome Erika! This is a wonderful community. beautiful Dracaena!! #### Erikaさんが2024-02-22に返信しました Super pumped! ### BunnyAri24さんが2024-02-22にコメントしました Welcome! I’m also new, but I’m super new 😂 Like a week new. Only my mom has owned plants for a few years now #### Erikaさんが2024-02-23に返信しました In it together 💪🏻 welcome to being a plant mom! #### BunnyAri24さんが2024-02-23に返信しました Thank you ☺️❤️ I’m happier than I was not having any plants lol ### Gigglzngreenzさんが2024-02-23にコメントしました Welcome! Did you say your plant is sick? It doesn’t look sick to me. What is wrong? It’s gorgeous! #### Erikaさんが2024-02-23に返信しました It is… its very droopy and its turning a ton of yellow leaves and brown tips that I keep removing. The leaves are falling down, it should look like this. I recently repotted it, and I think its in shock 😢 ![1件中1件目の添付ファイル](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/kZsMDuzBiW0Nswt2hTxo6GcYENZPFNl6z6OfR8a5Ibc/QPnPk71mSayZeNRHqDtsTA.webp?size=large) #### Gigglzngreenzさんが2024-02-24に返信しました I have a giant rhaphidophora Decursiva that this is happening to. I just repotted it and all the leaves drooped and are curling. I haven’t lost any leaves yet so I’m hoping it’ll come out of it. I’d let it get pretty dry between waterings. I think it’ll be okay. I hope mine will be too. 🙏🙏🙏 ![1件中1件目の添付ファイル](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/N8o0FHN9GC2reILsVTJ_3HJdv-zoUUl_jquRarXVZAE/gumm7FW0REeWr-ezqT7ziA.webp?size=large) #### Erikaさんが2024-02-24に返信しました Lets both hang in there. I am not a patient person and seeing my plant all droopy is bringing me down! #### Gigglzngreenzさんが2024-02-26に返信しました Do you have other plants? It helps me having other plants to admire that are doing well in the midst of the sick one. You can put them with the sick one and they can be its buddy while it recovers. 😊 ### Gigglzngreenzさんが2024-02-24にコメントしました Yellow leaves are a sign of overwatering. Could that be it? #### Erikaさんが2024-02-24に返信しました I think so! I didnt lower the water during winter and just got a moisture meter to start measuring the soil moisture before I water it again. But I think I killed it when I repotted it 😭 i didnt know what i was doing! It was my first time repotting a plant. Oh boy did I learn a ton from this. #### Gigglzngreenzさんが2024-02-24に返信しました Oh dang it! Well don’t give up yet! Not until all the green is gone. It’s big so when it comes back it’s going to be glorious! I bet it will come back. If it still has viable roots that weren’t slimy and rotted then it has a chance! #### Erikaさんが2024-02-24に返信しました Love your positivity! Trying to stay positive here. Ill give it time 💪🏻 ### Gigglzngreenzさんが2024-02-24にコメントしました I use bamboo shishkabob sticks to monitor moisture. The meters are not accurate enough for me. As soon as my bamboo stick starts to come out fairly dry (depending on the plant) I know to water. That might work better for you. You can get the sticks online or at the store usually in the bakery aisle where the cooking tools are in bags of fifty or a hundred. I buy mine online and I buy different lengths. 6”, 8”, and 12”. They breakdown eventually so you need to replace them every few months. #### Erikaさんが2024-02-24に返信しました Thanks so much for the recommendation! I will look for these and see how it goes! --- _Plantaコミュニティ (https://getplanta.com)。閲覧はどなたでも可能です。投稿、コメント、いいねをするには、Plantaアプリをダウンロードしてください: https://getplanta.com/download_
