# Recently my plant has started to go brown/yellow. Some of the leaves…

Recently my plant has started to go brown/yellow. Some of the leaves I pulled off were a little crunchy. Anyone have any ideas as to what could be going on? I can’t tell if it’s overwatered or under watered.

I usually let the water sit overnight to let the chlorine evaporate before using it to water my plants.

Or you can use distilled or rainwater. Those are the safest portions.

Eliya is correct I use distilled water. I recently started collecting rainwater for all Dracaena’s. It takes forever I don’t have gutters

No way! Really? She’s beautiful now!! So it could moreso be the type of water and not me overwatering or anything?

Yes Dracaena’s hate treated water
