# Looking for some advice for my Dieffenbachia. I've had it a few years…

_Bryanneさんが2025-04-29に投稿しました_

Looking for some advice for my Dieffenbachia. I've had it a few years and it just never seems to be happy. It slight droops all of the time. I've tried different watering schedules and different lighting situations.

It hasn't been repotted in over a year. It's currently in a 12 inch pot and the plant is around 50 inches tall.

The vent by the pot is closed. Pic of the soil mixture in case that is the issue.

Thanks!

I had one of these and it died because I let it dry out between watering and i didn’t have the humidity high enough which i know now that they hate to have there soil dry. just my advice 🤷‍♀️

I wonder if you’re able to check out the root ball and see if it’s okay or needs to be downsized. Maybe a soil mixture with more airflow by adding something like orchid bark?  
You could always chop it and completely reset the plant if you’d like.  
I do agree with the humidity Abbey talked about. A humidifier or placing it in a regularly used bathroom would be beneficial if you’re able.
