Any ideas why my donkey tail is cracking?
Any ideas why my donkey tail is cracking?
I suggest check watering frequency. This cracking might be caused from dryness of soil from under watering or the splitting of stems from overwatering. Monkey tails usually don't need a lot of water regularly.

It does looks like the leaves bursted from some type of watering issue. I have a burro’s tail as well, and leaves and plant itself is generally pretty sensitive.

I think it’s a good size to repot, when it gets bigger, it’ll be a nightmare to repot. I just repotted my large burro tail and died every time a leaf fell off. 😁
