Thank you!
I brought one home and she started dying within a week. Luckily, I've saved her through propagation and now your tips will help my new babies thrive!
I to rescued a dumb cane. She was in poor condition at my Walmart. Very little soil and she was bone dry. I didn't know she was even A dumb cane. I had to make a post on my Facebook about her to figure it out. And now I'm doing research on her. Thank you for your videos. I love them. They really help.
it makes me so happy that you name your plants! thanks for your help!
Hiii! This message made me happy 🥰 sending lots of positive energy to you and your plants ♥️♥️🌿
Your videoe are so helpful! I have two holding on for dear life, some roots and no leaves. Your experience and tips helped me see what I was doing wrong and sparked their revival, Thank you!
Great video! thanks for your complete explanations
Thanks for the tips! Ive been struggling w my dieffenbachia for a while, I think because I listened to someone about watering it far less than what you recommend. Im gonna try your advice. Ive also been misting her, and she seems to be responding well. Thanks, Lucia!
So happy this was helpful! Let me know how it goes with yours :)
Thank you so much 🥰
It helped me a lot !!
You are very welcome! So glad it helped 🥰♥️🌿
Thank you very much! I would say this is the only video on youtube that was actually helpful for me when it comes with this plant. Everyone’s been saying keep the soil dry at most times before watering but my plant is literally dying and I wasnt sure what I have been doing wrong. No one talked about temperature and proper watering. I think my plant is getting better now just after a day of doing your advice!❤️
Ah! This makes me really happy 💚 How's your Dieffenbachia doing now? I'm here for any questions you may have :-)
@@PlantsandLucia It’s been doing so amazing! I really thought I had to throw this beautiful plant before watching your video but no more yellow leaves! It’s thriving so well. I live in Canada it’s very challenging to maintain a Dieffenbachia in cold. I really appreciate your content ❤️😍
Thank you, Lucia!
You are very welcome! 🥰
Thank you! So helpful!
So happy you found it helpful ☺️♥️! Sending lots of positive energy to you!
Hi Lucia I really enjoy your videos and thank you for sharing your experiences with plants I have the same plant for 2 years and it started dying back a whole year without any leaves at all and now this summer I have 4 leaves and still coming out more but the leaves are small like yours , by any chance you know if they would they stay that way and never go back to big leaves ? Thank you in advance 😘
Thanks for the tip about warmer temp to encourage growth on lower part of stem! I just bought a dieffenbachia that doesn't have leaves on the lower stem and have it under a grow led light (10W). Any chance the grow light can help with generating heat to make it a warmer temp for the plant? The leaves are also small so I'm hoping the grow light will provide the light it needs for the leaves to grow bigger 🤞🏽
Charming!
I had two, one died and the other one seems to be thriving but still gets brown spots here and there. It kept getting yellow leaves and I learned from another video that the planter was too big so the plant was staying wet for too long. I repotted it into a smaller planter and that helped.
This is very helpful Mrs. Mamabear! Thanks so much for sharing here :)
Sending lots of positive energy to you and your Dieffenbachia !
Thanks dear, likewise ❤️
by the way, that is an impressive Calathea in the background.
Thank you so much! We definitely love our calathea ☺️♥️! Now we in the winter, we have her constantly close to a humidifier, so the leaves don't dry up, 😅
Do you have one as well?
@@PlantsandLucia I work at the Hyatt Regency in Waikiki. We have several Calatheas on property. But not as fabulous as yours !
@@batrecon9736 ah so cool!! Would love to see pictures :) if you can, send to my Instagram!
Happy holidays my friend 🎄☃️♥️
Hi Lucia! My small diffy has little black bugs crawling on some of the leaves. I see no damage yet, so I took it out of the old soil, gave the leaves a good shower and then repotted her. Is there anything else I may do to get rid of them or to keep them from coming back? By the way I believe the insects came from an even smaller diffy that sat beside her and whose leaves began to curl and turn yellow. Im trying to remain hopeful so I performed the same process with this smaller one. Please help!
My dieffenbachia is already 5 ft and still growing, she's directly in a west facing window. I'm located in central valley California
hi :) i need help with my dieffenbachia camille 😳 so i water it enough and drain it well, let it dry before i water it again, and the leaves are very very droopy and it’s been a week and it’s worse than it was! they aren’t yellow, but droopy. i’m wondering if it’s because it’s cold outside or it’s not getting enough sun? how can i save itttt?! also i’m very late lol
My mom had this plant and all the leads fell out. The stump was the only thing left. My mom ask me I bbn it can be saved and I'm not sure if it can be save. I cleaned it and place the stump with the roots in water like propagation. Will that work bring it back to life? I hate giving up on plants.
I had to cut all my leaves to. How long does it take for new leaves to come?
So I’ve had one of these for a couple months and her leaves have been drooping way down. I found out I haven’t been taking that great of care of it (thanks to your video). I was wondering if I need to look into ways to save her or should I just keep tending to her better and see what she does. Only a leaf or two has died from the bottom of it. I wasn’t watering enough and was way too close to a window where we’ve had some chilly days lately.
Hiii! For me this is the best part of taking care of my plants, when I learn something new and figure out how to make them happier ☺️🌿♥️ so happy to hear the video was helpful! Yes, I'd try to see how she does with the watering and the new location... I also usually prune the damaged leaves so my plant can focus on the healthy growth ♥️! How's your plant doing now?
What is that called which is behind you? It’s so pretty.
No hace mucho casi mato un potus, si... un potus. Lo tenia hace mucho tiempo en agua y estaba perfecto, super grande. Como acá ya es primavera empece a fertilizarlo echando solo unas gotitas del fertilizante liquido (preparado a 50% de lo recomendado) y venia perfecto, el tema es que se me hacia tedioso cambiar todo el tiempo el agua asi que tuve una idea... se me dio por usar un fertilizante granulado que se disuelve de a poco (me pareció buena idea en su momento) y en muy poco tiempo hizo estragos en mi pobre potus T_T. El 80% de las raices se pudrieron, perdio muchas hojas y tuve que cortalo a ver si logro salvar algún esqueje. Aun no se, no se ve muy prometedor pero tengo esperanza de que mi error no sea tan trágico !
Esta bueno que compartas estos vídeos, de esos errores aprendemos y conocemos mas a nuestras plantas :) !
Hola mi amigo! Si tienes razón, asi es como aprendemos :)
Gracias por tu mensaje, decidí subir este video exactamente por eso... !
Como sigue tu Potus? Les mando energía positiva a ti y a tu planta hasta Argentina :)
What does it mean when the nodes on the stem turn yellow?
Lucia thank you, i have been struggling with this plant, the leaves are turning yellow and brown and not sure if it it’s because i am trying to find the perfect light or too much water?
Same here! This is the only plant that is struggling to thrive.
My diffenbachia is getting brown on the leaf tips. Any advice?
These tips are so helpful! Thank you. I've only started being a plant mom since lockdown and of my 8 plants 2 are not doing so well...my 2 dumb canes :( I'm trying to revive them. They were in medium light then I put them outside in direct sunlight to get rain. I left them outside for a week with the tray which I now realize this probably is what hurt them. I live in the Caribbean. The leaves are half brown now and many dropped off. Should I trim it? Was the change in sunlight the problem? Any advice?
Hi! Sorry to hear about your dumb canes, they can be very particular about what they like and don't like haha.. I'd recommend you trim the damaged leaves so the plant can focus its energy on the healthy growth... provide indirect medium light (not so much bright light).. and then wait :) Also how much water do you give them? I usually let the soil dry a little in between waterings :)...
Don't worry, we may still be able to make them happy, just put them in a place like that, and give them time to recover :)
@@PlantsandLucia thank you! I water her once a week when the soil is dry. Will try your suggestions and hopefully she will recover beautifully 💛
Let me know how it goes 🌿💕
@@PlantsandLucia I trimmed the damaged leaves, put them back in the cool spot on my patio, and they both have new leaves forming! Thanks again for the advice!
How often do you water this ... and how much water?
What about pruning dead leaves?
What if the leaves start to become yellow and droopy. I have a small dumb cane that's about 4 inch tall only with 3 leaves. I saw one of the leaves was yellowing to the point that it was pale so i cut that part out, but now one of the other leaves are starting to turn as well. I water it about once every 3 days and I keep it roughly about 6m away from the balcony door.
Sorry 6ft
I’ve gotten 3 diffenenbacjias and this happened to all 3. Different locations. Even different states and seasons and different tropics. And they all lost basically all thete leaves
Hi Lucia! I recently picked up a pretty tropic snow dieffenbachia. I never know when to water it. I've heard so much conflicting information regarding when to water them. it seems like this plant likes to dry out quite a bit before watering. It is still cool here so im trying not water as much. Should I wait for the leaves to droop before watering? any advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Hii! In my experience, the Dieffenbachia does like when the soil dries out in between waterings... However, I don't wait until the leaves drop, at least for me, that proves to be a bit too late (she still recovers, but for now I'm trying to water only when I feel the soil has dried out) - - every week and a half or so..!
Let me know how it goes 🌿🥰
I wish you had shown us the steps you did to cut back the dieffenbachia to revive it.
Verlena Peters you are right ! I did that some months before I recorded this video but I will try to record that if it happens with other plants, so you guys can see !
Hi Lucia! The leaf tips on my dumb cane are all turning yellow and I’ve lost some of the bogey leaves at the bottom(I think those might just be old age but I’m not sure.) Do you have any ideas why it’s happening. Thank you!
Hiii ! How often do you water your dieffenbachia ? And how much water do you give her ?
Plants and Lucia I water her when the soil is dry to my whole pointer finger. She’s in a kind of a big pot so I try to water her all the way through but sometimes I don’t cuz I didn’t think she needed that much water.
Hello lucia my dieffenbachia gets new yellow leaves everyday i have a feeling i over watered her how do i fix this :"(
Hi!! Do you have IG ? Maybe you can send a picture and we can figure it out there
Mine has been in water for over 10 years N it's hugeeee
I recently moved my DumbCane from directly in front of the window to the center of my living room and only one of the leaves has turned completely yellow the rest of them are green and doing great but that one I'm not sure why.
Hi! How’s your dieffenbachia doing now ? How often do you water ?
@@PlantsandLucia She's doing fine. I figured out why their were brown spots on some of the leaves, it's because I treated her with a neem oil and water solution last week and the leaves being wet caused the spots but she's dried off now and the spots that were there I've cut them off and I now have 4 new baby sprouts. I noticed she loves being in the kitchen maybe about a meter away from the window. Thanks for responding.
@@PlantsandLucia I only water when my meter says she's dry other than that I don't water her.
I have problem with my plants too
Please help me my smaller bottom leaves of dieffenbachia getting yellow.. and new shoots arising also browned ...as I know they are moisture loving plant .. I bottom water it everyday .. kindly advise
Hi! This is most likely because you are watering everyday and hence over watering..! I usually water my Dieffenbachia every week (or every 2 weeks)... Every week I check the soil with my finger (until the second knuckle) to make sure I let the soil dry a bit in between waterings and prevent over watering..!
For now, check if the soil is too soggy and let it air out and dry a bit so your plant doesn't drown...
Let me see how it goes!
Sending lot of positive love to you and your Dieffenbachia! ♥️♥️
Oh really thanks much .. I thought bottom watering don't lead to over watering ... I will follow this tip 🥰🥰
Please make a specific plant care on peperomea ferreyrae too... Love you 🥰🥰
What about keeping the white color? Mine has started to loose the white markings.
Hi Tammy! Thank you for your comment!
What I have observed with my plant, and I have read in some forums too, is that the Dieffenbachia tends to turn green with very little light. This is tricky because they don't like a lot of light.. However, maybe provide a bit more filtered light?
Is your Dieffenbachia getting very little light now?
It is sitting in a south facing window. I feel like it is getting a lot of sun.
@@tammylw4514 This is very important..! Yes the Dieffenbachia prefers low light.. maybe if you move your plant away from the window, it may be a bit happier :)
Hope this helps and let me know how it goes :) !
Ok, thanks, I will try that.
Hi, there’s an annoying faint smell coming from my dumb cane and I’m about to throw it out. I don’t like smells. It comes and goes. Have you ever experienced that and what can be done plz? I can’t even explain this weird smell. It’s kind of fishy, IDK. I just don’t like it.
If my diffenbachia lost all her leaves, can it come back from that? Or is it done ? 😩
Hi! sorry your dieffenbachia lost her leaves ! Hmm I guess it would depend on the cause .. what happened ? We forgot to water mine once, and her leaves dried out.. so I cut all of them and she revived (she has beautiful leaves now!)... what happened to yours ?
Plants and Lucia not sure. The leaves started yellowing and just falling off. Someone gave it to me so not sure if it went into shock
How’s she doing now? How often do you water ? How much light does she get ?
What is that beautiful partnered plant behind you.
