I now have this one shoot that is yellowing and unhappy. Soil is damp but definitely not over wet. The rest of the plant seems quite happy and healthy. Do I cut this little guy off? ![2件中1件目の添付ファイル](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/LzkFvbqhpf4oNbAtauuFz6jWw4JRQatKgK_hQMoNtJo/nsIPpYt2RQWbar3pmHCz3A.webp?size=large) ![2件中2件目の添付ファイル](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/LzkFvbqhpf4oNbAtauuFz6jWw4JRQatKgK_hQMoNtJo/aMh5Q3UoRpyjQGRWE6_KQA.webp?size=large) ## 12件のコメント ### Danaeさんが2025-05-07にコメントしました I would leave it just to see what it does. It might come back. But if not in a few days then I would remove it. Or cut the piece and try to keep it alive in water near a window. #### Topekatwisterさんが2025-05-07に返信しました Thank you! This is my first ZZ, so I’m just not super familiar with her yet! Thanks for the quick reply :) #### Danaeさんが2025-05-07に返信しました Your welcome! I’m not familiar with them either sadly! Just trying to help. ### Yolandaさんが2025-05-07にコメントしました Yes cut it off but FYI you should not have repotted it.. ZZ plants love to be in tight spaces for a good minute. Even if pot is bulging as long as the rhizomes are covered in soil and the soil is not lifted away from the pot you can leave the ZZ plants I have had one of my ZZ for 7 months in the same pot it came in.. ![2件中1件目の添付ファイル](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/YJJidWl8yghcg0Wa-wOE-i_0s9kY6A5yWb8qoP4VOxs/yKELKFVWS-qtDVX9sfCkZQ.webp?size=large) ![2件中2件目の添付ファイル](https://images.getplanta.com/v1/resize/YJJidWl8yghcg0Wa-wOE-i_0s9kY6A5yWb8qoP4VOxs/7k205HLUR9uvkqJl96rUxQ.webp?size=large) #### Topekatwisterさんが2025-05-07に返信しました The rhizomes were sticking way out of the pot from the nursery, and there wouldn’t have been any way to add more soil. It was way tight/coming out of the top of that small container. Should I still have left it? #### Yolandaさんが2025-05-07に返信しました I would have a little longer however now just pay close attention to your watering and lighting. It’s a super easy plant ### Isabellaさんが2025-05-07にコメントしました Zz plant shoots tend to come up a much lighter shade than the rest of the plant. Give it some time, if the shoot stays yellow or worsens, cut it off. The plant is probably just shocked from the big change #### Ma Gさんが2025-05-08に返信しました That’s true ### Stephanieさんが2025-05-07にコメントしました Could just be shocked from being repotted. I would let it go unless it gets worse then I would cut it off. Good luck ### Yolandaさんが2025-05-07にコメントしました Just do not put this plant on a watering schedule the rhizomes store water for the plant. If you don’t have this plant in a self watering pot, then always use a soil meter to test this plant before you water it again. I can go almost 2 weeks even with my two being in self watering pots before I have to refill the tray #### Topekatwisterさんが2025-05-07に返信しました Roger that! ### Yolandaさんが2025-05-07にコメントしました Oh yeah don’t over fertilize either or you will start noticing a white powdery mildew on your top soil.
