This was terrific!!! I’ve overwatered, over fed, done everything wrong. Wish I had watched this before having to clip dead leaves off. I am left with a large stem and four leaves. Not sure it will make it. All plants do not need same care, like all people do not need same- just love and encouragement.
I have a Yucca plant and been struggling to find the right video that hits all my concerns!! Very useful and informative video! Thank you very much... That tad more reassured.
This video is exceptionally helpful to me. I have had three Yucca's, half the size of his, potted together, in one large pot, for a couple of years 🤦🏾♂️
@@ZestyLemon333 Yes! I got mine from Ikea as well. They grew, and I repotted them into a bigger pot, not knowing that I should then separate them, Lol.
I just bought a yucca cane plant ( i named him Mr. Yuc ) and I am curious should I be re-potting it in a pot right away or should i be waiting a little while? and when i do re-pot it how large of a pot should i use? (i am really glad i got a yucca i am trying to teach myself how to not kill plants and i think this is a good step forward)
I would wait a bit. When you buy a plant and then bring it back to your home the change in scenery, humidity, light, and temperature can be a lot to adjust to. It can stress a plant out. Not to mention watering too. You'll no doubt have a different watering schedule than some of these big box stores. Most of those places try and water just about every plant they have practically every day. Consequently, you should only water your yucca once the soil has dried out COMPLETELY. Don't forget this is a desert dweller so they can go extended periods without water. You want to water profusely yet infrequently. If you aren't sure if you need to water, stick your finger down in the soil and see if you feel any moisture at all. If you do, wait a bit. After waiting a month or two you should be fine to repot. Again this is a desert dweller so they don't need a bunch of new soil and a bunch of new nutrients in with the soil or with fertilizer. Honestly, they enjoy being a little root bound so if you wanted to wait you could wait a year or two to repot. I kept mine in the same container it came from the store in for three or more years. Now if you want to repot that's fine. Just don't get too large of a pot. At most you shouldn't go up more than two inches. If it's in a six-inch plastic pot don't get larger than an eight-inch pot. Make sure it has plenty of drainage holes in the bottom of the pot too. Honestly, terra cotta would be the best because it's porous and will help wick water away from the roots which is great for a desert-dwelling plant like this one. I would only use soil that's made for cacti and succulents too.
Thank you so much, I’ve been struggling with my yucca . I may have overwatered and next thing I know, we have fungus gnats. I’ll be taking better care of it hopefully
Oh yes, I hear this a lot! lol. At most I give mine 3-4 cups of water about every two weeks or so. You want to water it enough that the excess water runs out the bottom, and empty the saucer underneath after 20 minutes. Then wait till the substrate dries out almost completely before you water again. They're from the desert so they can go a good while without water, just don't do it to them every time. Good luck with the fungus gnats. There used to be a killer product out there that cut down on aphids and fungus gnats like no other product I know. Unfortunately Monsanto bought the company out and they stopped making it. You may be able to find some on eBay though. It's called gnat nix. Plant prudently!
I have a Yucca which an ex friend bought for me. It's been five years and have repotted it since. It seems to be doing well it's quite large. I try to cut off the dead leaves a couple times a year I guess. Thank you for the video.🫵🏼😊💚
Very informative video ! Thank you. My indoor Yuca plant is growing so fast the branches are hiding the trunks. I would like to expose the trunks more. How would you recommend dealing with thinning out the greenery without harming the plant ? I think this thinning would give the plant more interest. More character.
Yes, I agree. Take you some sharpened, sanitized pruning shears or scissors, and cut flush against the stem with cutting the stem. If you find you accidentally nick the stem/trunk and you worry it's a decent opening to let in infection, or rot, or pests just use cinnamon to cover the cut. 100% cinnamon is a natural antibiotic and will keep all that from entering your yucca and potentially causing a plethora of problems. I wouldn't remove more than a quarter of the leaves. Good luck!
Hi thank you so much for sharing this video on the Yucca plant. I now see that I have been over watering my Yucca plant. The soul is too moist and it is turning yellow I am afraid I am killing it! What should I do to save it? Should I just not water it it repot it with dry soil? Or will it be fine just not watering until soil gets dry? Please let me know. I truly appreciate what you do! Thanks si much. Amy
Great video. Do you have any suggestions for my yucca. I watered it about 2 weeks ago and the soil just won’t dry. It’s the standard potting mix that I bought it in. It has pores in the container to allow for drainage. It just won’t dry and I’m concerned for root rot
I had the same problem and I have found that clay pots dry out faster and my plastic pots were holding in the moisture. Also, I tried Miracle Grow Cactus and Succulent mix soil and I nearly killed off all my succulents because it NEVER dried out. Even in clay and peat pots.
Ive got the same problem with a 6 foot yucca outside growing in a ceramic pot. The roots have worked their way into the cement flooring and i cant pull the pot free. The yucca needs repotting as its bent in half but the whole plant looks healthy otherwise. Which compost did you use with sand and perlite as I couldnt quite see on the packet but Im sure it wasnt a multi purpose compost and lastly what fertilizer do you use????
Hi. We live in North Carolina and we have 2 of these plants and have them both in big pots. We keep them outside under our patio and kerp them in a small greenhouse in the winter. They have grown so much that if we have much wind at all they get turned over because they are so tall. We were wanting to plant them outside in our rock bed but not sure if they will make it in the winter months. Any suggestions?
My yucca is struggling. I see a lot of gnats on the yellow sticky trap. I got it 3 months ago and the leaves are turning yellow and brown. Some are spotted and most have a powdery white thing on them. It has 3 stalks and the smallest one has only about 7 leaves while the tallest stalks inside leaves are all dying turning brown.
I am interested in getting one of these palms in the future, but I have been growing some succulents with grow lights and I am interested in having more cacti. Can you tell me the two on your table and the one in your previous video when you went over the care of the yucca palm? How did they get so big?
I lost my root rake twice and found it back after rethinking where I was using that thing - twice it was found in the ground along with grasses. Very hard to see. I'm guessing attached the thing with something that is easier to see.
My plant is very tall but now the tallest part became yellow and now has 0 leaves and it had a couple of baby plants down near the soil, but the tallest part makes me sad i don't know what i should do to save it, should i cut it?
Hi !! Love watching your videos. I plan to re pot my Yucca plant and I bought Miracle Gro Cactus Palm & Citrus Potting Mix , could I mix that with perlite and call it a day ? Or Should I add all purpose soil as well ?
You could throw in a little perlite but miracle grow does a great job of making their soil pretty porous and on point. In fact depending on how large your plant is you should definitely throw in about a quarter or so of some reputable gardening soil for added heft. Potting soil would be too loose. Mine was so large I had to add in more gardening soil too, because he started leaning. He's fine now though lol. Putting on some mass!
I am wondering, after seeing you had only 1 hole in the bottom of your new pot, what is classed as adequate drainage holes? I'm actually putting holes into the bottom of my new pot for my yucca and am unsure how many is really needed?
Thank you so much for videos!! I just got a yucca plant like a month ago and I repot it right away without knowing that they like to be root bound before you repot. Did I just killed my new baby? It’s been a month and it’s still beautiful.. please help. Thank you and stay safe and healthy.
No this won't kill it. Did you prune the roots back, or did you just put in it a bigger pot? If you don't see any negative symptoms yet you should be in the clear. Plant prudently!
Help! Lower leaves are dying. It doesn’t seem happy since I brought it in after being outside all summer. One leaf bunch fell off. About 1 month ago the coal stove was lit and with that the house humidity slowly drops. Is it normal for this change?
I've read about fungus gnat problems with the miracle gro cactus mix soil. You mentioned mixing perlite in, about how much would be good? Mine is a potted yucca cane, outdoors in zone 8b
Okay recently I bought 3 yucca cane plants, two of them have two trees in one pot small and large I just repotted them the soil was already most. My question is do I wait two weeks to water them? Also I was misting them twice a day I get that's too much right.
I have 3 yuccas that I just reported (30 min ago) in a 14 inch pot, they are 3ft, 2ft and 1 ft. I think I overwatered in the last pot because 2ft is droopy and yellow. Can I use indoor potting mix? I also put rocks at the bottom to help drain. I need helpppppp!
Please help I repotted my Yuca in too big of a pot use new fertilizer now I'm worried that I should have just left it in the smaller pot what should I do now please respond if you know anything about undoing a mistake like this definitely should have done more research before wanting a bigger fancier pot.
Hello can you please help my yucca plant i have no idea whats going on with the plant..this is my first indoor plant..and it doesn't look good..my yucca has 3 stems one..two of them looks very bad with yellow leaves and brown crispy ends..while the largest stem looks fine but it is bending like its about to fall..i don't know if i underwatered or overwatered ..please please help
My plant was in a really big pot with two other yuccas. The smaller two died and I just pulled them out and I see they had root rot. The bigger one is still looking good but I moved him to a smaller pot just in case. Was it this correct? I figured if the other ones had root rot from the too large pot, it was only a matter of time before the healthy one did as well
WOW Justin, your Yucca Cane looks great!! I bought my Yucca Cane and repotted it on Earth Day, but after seeing how many roots yours had compared to mine kind of surprised me. My root ball was really small, slightly smaller than the size of a baseball, and my Yucca is about half the size of your Yucca. I guess I just thought there would be more roots LOL but maybe my Yucca is still a baby? I replanted it in a slightly larger New Mexico pot so I hope I didn't make a mistake on the size of that. It seems to be doing just fine tho. None of the leaves are yellow or brown thankfully, but I can't wait till it has leaves like yours. Could you do an update video once your Yucca has gotten used to his new pot and just show us how much the correct amount of water to use is?
Could you take some pictures and send them to me on insta or email? I wanna see what exactly we're up against. Insta- ytgreenalchemist. Email- Ytgreenalchemist@gmail.com.
I was seriously considering using my Sawzall right down the middle. Would I kill it if I separated it like that? I wish I could show you a picture, but I don't think I have an option here. Thank you so much
Just received a yucca and it seems to be in coconut coir which seems to hold a lot of water. The roots are visible at the drainage holes. I removed about half of it from the top and don’t see roots yet. Should I change this soil, just lift it up and put more soil below, or leave it alone?
Honestly, I do. The glue is typically a water solvent so if you want to keep the rocks that are glued down just hand wash them in the sink with some soap and warm water. You may need a screwdriver or butter knife or hammer to help break up the glue and rocks. And don't be surprised if the glue has gone deep into the soil.
So I assume you are talking about the Dracaena fragrans? This is a completely different plant and needs fairly different caring requirements. This plant is from the tropics of Africa while the yucca is around the more desert, and semi tropics of Southern Mexico and Guatemala. The established yucca can take brighter light than the corn plant and the yucca needs less water and less fertilizer. They both like a moderate amount of humidity. I love love love the corn plant especially the larger ones. Make sure you clean the leaves with four parts warm water to one part lemon juice and a wash cloth when they get dusty. This well help them with photosynthesis and breathing too.
Four cups or a liter. Really it is just enough that excess water will run out the bottom of the pot. If you keep a saucer underneath empty it after about 20 minutes. Let the soil dry up almost completely before you water again.
They're like us and they often crave some greens to digest. Try and give her some healthy plants to chew on. Like your catnip, cat thyme, cut grass, lemongrass, rosemary, oat grass, and licorice root is a good one too. Also certain flowers they do enjoy if you have any outside cats like I do they also like echinacea, zinnias, marigolds that could lure them to a certain area of the yard. There's also a spray you can purchase on Amazon called cat mace that you can spray on certain plants and it deters them. All it is is the urine of a predator cat that keeps them away from just the smell. Cats also don't enjoy strong citrus scents, so you could chop up a couple of oranges and place them around the house. Or if it's outside they don't like lavender, rue, coleus, or pennyroyal if you want to plant any of those to deter. My fiance's cousin uses strategically placed pieces of aluminum foil and/or double-sided tape to keep her cats off shelves and aquariums, etc. in the house. You could go that route too, they don't like stepping on either one.
I did misspeak. The yucca cane plant enjoys slightly alkaline soil.
Well I used non alkaline soil based on your recommendation, & my yucca plant is now dead. Would you be able to ship me one by FedEx or UPS?
@@macysondheim 😅You should've sought out a master gardener's advice. Sounds like your azz out.
This was terrific!!! I’ve overwatered, over fed, done everything wrong. Wish I had watched this before having to clip dead leaves off. I am left with a large stem and four leaves. Not sure it will make it. All plants do not need same care, like all people do not need same- just love and encouragement.
I repotted my yucca plant with three part peat and one part sand. Hope all goes well. Thanks for the video. You gave loads of information.
Great video! Just to complete, brown tips can also just be mechanical damage, like brushing up against the leaves too often, or drafts and dry air.
I have a Yucca plant and been struggling to find the right video that hits all my concerns!! Very useful and informative video! Thank you very much... That tad more reassured.
great fantastic 2 videos drove me nuts. u were a breathe of fresh air thamk u
Wow!! I’ve never trimmed roots off like that. Thanks for the tips
I'm excited to find somebody in KY with this much knowledge. Thanks dude. 👍👍

I have a large yucca and there is another smaller stalk with no growth on it. Any ideas?

My root ball was really small, slightly smaller than the size of a baseball, and my Yucca is about half the size of your Yucca. I guess I just thought there would be more roots LOL but maybe my Yucca is still a baby? I replanted it in a slightly larger New Mexico pot so I hope I didn't make a mistake on the size of that.

Could you do an update video once your Yucca has gotten used to his new pot and just show us how much the correct amount of water to use is?
What do you do if you find some roots that break off in your hand?? (A.k.a. Root rot)
Which soil is the best to buy?
❤❤❤
Hola, thank you for this video. I think, my yucca plant has fungus, what do you recommend?
Thanks
Could you take some pictures and send them to me on insta or email? I wanna see what exactly we're up against. Insta- ytgreenalchemist.

Hello,
I have the same. Could I send you an email as well?😊
How often do you water a yucca cutting?
HELP my Yucca is 7' with 4 separate "heads" I want to divide it in half.
Is that possible? If so, HOW?
I was seriously considering using my Sawzall right down the middle. Would I kill it if I separated it like that? I wish I could show you a picture, but I don't think I have an option here. Thank you so much
Just received a yucca and it seems to be in coconut coir which seems to hold a lot of water. The roots are visible at the drainage holes. I removed about half of it from the top and don’t see roots yet. Should I change this soil, just lift it up and put more soil below, or leave it alone?
I just bought one it's in a small pot with rocks glued on top can I take it out and pot it again ?
Honestly, I do. The glue is typically a water solvent so if you want to keep the rocks that are glued down just hand wash them in the sink with some soap and warm water. You may need a screwdriver or butter knife or hammer to help break up the glue and rocks. And don't be surprised if the glue has gone deep into the soil.
Thank you!
Sanitize one's tools with what?
i ripped the some roots will it die
Can you trim the leaves?
If that's your living room, I can't believe you're cleaning it in there lol
My yucca cane plant is wobbly. There is 3 canes in one pot.
What if my yucca doesn't have roots?
i have a corn cane. is the care the same? thank you

@@TheGreenAlchemist thank you!
How many cups of water do you use when you water your Yucca?
Four cups or a liter. Really it is just enough that excess water will run out the bottom of the pot. If you keep a saucer underneath empty it after about 20 minutes. Let the soil dry up almost completely before you water again.
Probably should’ve just cut the plastic pot to get it off - that’s what I had to do…
You would have saved time by cutting away the pot and using your hands instead of the Barbie-sized rake. More perlite would have been better.
Why not take the plant outside to change the pot...? Kind of odd doing it in your Livingroom. Renter? 🤣
No, actually I own my home, guess you've never tried to record a video outside?
I learned more in this video than a lifetime in school or white people videos
How do I keep my cat eating my plants.
They're like us and they often crave some greens to digest. Try and give her some healthy plants to chew on. Like your catnip, cat thyme, cut grass, lemongrass, rosemary, oat grass, and licorice root is a good one too. Also certain flowers they do enjoy if you have any outside cats like I do they also like echinacea, zinnias, marigolds that could lure them to a certain area of the yard. There's also a spray you can purchase on Amazon called cat mace that you can spray on certain plants and it deters them. All it is is the urine of a predator cat that keeps them away from just the smell. Cats also don't enjoy strong citrus scents, so you could chop up a couple of oranges and place them around the house. Or if it's outside they don't like lavender, rue, coleus, or pennyroyal if you want to plant any of those to deter. My fiance's cousin uses strategically placed pieces of aluminum foil and/or double-sided tape to keep her cats off shelves and aquariums, etc. in the house. You could go that route too, they don't like stepping on either one.
