• Yucca plant propagatio...
Just a word of advice with this plant. Yes its a desert plant, but its cultivated for the home and adapts. I put my yucca in regular potting soil, water it every two weeks or less. The only thing I would recommend is not fertilizing it like a regular plant because it easily burns the leaves with black tips. I'm now testing out a slow release succulent fertilizer in the pot after 6 years lol. Pruning doesn't encourage growth on these plants contrary to popular youtube opinion. Like sharon says they never stop growing. The problem people have is the bottom leaves get yellow so they claim its to promote growth or for style. But the problem they have is underwatering drops bottom yellow leaves just as much as overwatering. Yes you can treat this plant like a cactus and it will survive. But if you want it bushy from top to bottom you have to water it more often. I lose a whole bunch of leaves every winter cause I move my yucca to a dark corner with grow lights for a month in december to make room for my my christmas tree. But my bottom leaves can still touch the pot when drooped and its 8 feet tall. lmao. water this thing just like any other houseplant, forget what you heard and thank me later. This goes for all houseplants, never let them completely try out. I use that moisture meter half way in pot like Shara and when the needle starts leaning to leaft I water, if it gets into the red you went too long.
Thank you for your informative video , Good presentation! I bought a neglected yucca from Walmart and repotted it but wasn’t getting enough light. I live in a apartment and have good lighting in the morning so I moved it to the window and it’s doing fine.👍 Thanks for the info…
Good to hear that you saving a beautiful plant 😀😊
I went through the same thing in my apartment after I put it outside it started growing quickly
one of my fav plants. i got one 8 feet tall and 3 or 4 feet wide. was a pup from costa farms when I got it in a 9" pot I think 5 or 6 years ago. It came from amazon online delivery in a broken pot and leaning over. When I went to repot it, it had no roots. I was so upset I just stuck it in a pot, stuck in a dark corner and forgot about it, more than half the leaves died. After 3 months of not watering it I was going to throw it out, but then I had a dream that its a desert plant and just needs a bright spot and will come back. So next morning I moved it to my East Facing bay window in my living room here in the North East US, gave it some water, and now it has like 4 or 5 chutes coming out from the trunk that are pretty tall now almost to my ceiling. Literally impossible to kill plant. I give it a quarter turn with every watering, I water generally every two weeks sometimes less depending. I treat it like any other plant. I don't let it dry out. I never prune, almost never fertilize. now i'm about to repot it again for first time in 5 years cause its getting pretty pale now and dropped some bottom leaves and I've had to water it a couple times twice a week, feel like i'm hitting rocks trying ot get the moisture meter in it. Crossing my fingers it goes well lol. I have recently stressed it out burning it with all purpose liquid fertilizer (caused black tips) and putting leaf shine on it before reading online that leaf shine is terrible for it. Its also gotten pretty droopy on the bottom. Wish me luck. 😪
"Oh my god. It's so, It's so hard. Sheit!" So cute.
I subscribed when I heard that 😆 so cute ☺️
Thank you for your information: i just bought a yucca❤️
I tried propagating mine in water, and it has gotten pretty nice roots now after 2-3 months!
That's amazing. I should try water propagation too 😀
how often did you change the water?
Shara Nyein you are still young. Thank you for the information.
Living in zone 5 or 5B mine grow great.
Love the Yucca plant! I like the single moisture probe rather than the double, I think the single is easier to insert into soil avoiding the roots rather than the double which one probe may miss the root however the other may hit it making you have to search more for a spot. They absolutely love it dry....:) Love your videos!
Lol. The double probe isn't double, "just for the fun of it!" It's measuring something else; I believe it's typically the soil pH. 😉
@@MMAFightMagazineOh, I understand I was just saying to check the soil moisture in a well rooted plant sometimes the double probes can be more difficult to insert.
@@Robert_A_Keyboards4948 I completely agree. I can feel it ripping the roots apart every time I insert it! Lol
My yucca is putting off a few offshoots so I’ll try the propagation.I have to water frequently because whenever I would water a leaf would turn yellow. When I forget about it it turns green and lush.
Mine was always healthy and grew very fast but i left it to my friend for 2 months , she watered it every week but it looks extremly sad it does not look underwatered because the fallen leaves are not very crispy.The plant was put on a shady spot, csn it be the issue? It was almost completly yellow, the green ones left feel very week.One of the branches just broke off by itself. Can i just put the broken one to a new pot and wait for it to propagate?
Thank you! Now I know how to take care of my boy. Your plants are very pretty too
Thank you 😃. keep your plant where thye can have enough indirect sunlight 😀,they will be happy and pretty too 😊
How do you get it to grow multiply steams mine only grows one each time i try to cut !
Thank you. 🙂 Very helpful.
👍
Thank you for helping me to care for my yucca plant. New subbie here
Any tips for the best soil to use For poting,. I am trying to rescue a dying plant.
Amazing video Shara , greetings to Singapore ^^
Thank you 😃😍
i have propagated my original yucca plant several times (indoors), and each time the stems are only about 1 inch in diameter (much less sturdy than your plant). When it grows to about 6 inches it gets top heavy and the stem bends. How do you suggest i stake them so that they don't bend? Can something be done so that the stems get thicker?
I just got a yucca cane as a gift. My mans got it from Lowe’s lol. Any tips for bringing it into the household and keeping it healthy?
Hi Amanda, yucca is one of the easiest plant to have indoor. when i got it we just bring it in straight away. Just to make sure they need plenty of sunlight, keep them next to the window and dont water often. I water them once in 2 week in the winter. However always check the soil before watering . Good luck 😊
thank you, this was exactly what I was looking for,
Glad I could help, please let know anything you concern about Yucca 😀
@@sharanyein3466 yes I definitely will!! My yucca’s are very temperamental 😅
Thank you. 💕 Your videos!
Very pleasant of you, informative and helpful 😊🙏
Thank you so much 😊😍
@@sharanyein3466 My pleasure Shara 😊🙏
Excellent video, thank you so much. 👍
Thank you very much for kind words :)
Are they sensitive to tap water ? Mine has been watered with two and she has some browning and yellowing.
They are not sensitive at all with any kind of water. Mine are doing totally fine 🙂. Just becareful don't give too much water 😃😀
I have a yucca plant that has leaves all the way down the trunk, can I cut off the bottom leaves to expose the trunk?
yucca to protect the property is cool, but i had taken cacti😊
Definitely 😆😄 my grandma plants alot of Cacti too 🌵🌵😅
I bought mature yuca 2 mnth back , it was doing fine I did mistake I fertilized with npk in winter ,, its leaves all went brown no ny positive sign wht to do , should I cut from between?? So I can save
What size of pot do they prefer? And would you recommend Terracotta?
It is depends what size of cutting you have. I am using 15 diameter for this one 😀😊. I like to use terracotta pot because they help to dry out water faster than plastic pot. Which mean we dont have to worry for overwatering nag root rot problem 😀😊
Hi! The yucca plant i just bought had a lot of black Spots on its leaves..how can i cute them?
Can I still propagate a yellowed "branch" of a mature tree? I also have new growth at the stump of one of my "dying" trees, should I propagate that one, or leave it alone entirely?
If you are mature plant is dying then, i recommened to cut that new growth and proapgate :)
@@sharanyein3466 thank you! I'm trying both the direct potting, as well as rooting in water 🤞
Why mine has a lot of brown leaves?😥
What if one does not have a water meter
How often to water
Some other sites say keep away from sunlight
Someone in my complex was throwing a yucca plant out. Problem is that the most of leaves are not straight, some at the top are but towards the bottom most of them are bending. I decided to take it anyways & try to save it. I bought soil & repot it. QUESTION! Do you think I'm wasting time because its gonna die anyways or is there a chance to save it & the leaves can become straight again? Please help
Hi, I’m having the same problem with my plant, did you manage to save your plant, if so how. Thanks
Hi im planning to plant yuca.. is it dangerous for pets? As i have many cats around.. im planning to plant it outside btw.
Hi Hatta, I don't think it is dangerous for pets. We used to plant a lot in Asia outdoor and had no problem at all 😀
How often should I water small the cutting in winter?
i water them once in around 7 to 10 days, or you can simply touch the soil to feel it.
Most of my Yucca leaves at the top are turning yellow. Is that normal?
It can be over watering. How often do you water to your plant ? Actually Yucca doesn't need that much water. You should wait until they are super super dry. Good luck 😀
i will start propagating my yuccas today. wish me luck. lol
Good luck 😁😃😀, just a small tip cut as close as possible from the main stem 😀
@@sharanyein3466 it's done. now i have 8 yucca's lol. i am also looking how to stop it from growing. you have some tips?
@@octavianmager what do mean "how to stop growing"? You don't want them to grow big? 🤔
@@sharanyein3466 i live in an appartment and i can't let them touch the sealing. Lol. So i would like not to be more than 6ft tall...for example. This is why i had to cut it...it was too tall. Now i keep it on the balcony but winter i have to welcome her inside and i still need some space for myself 🤣
@@octavianmagergot it 😆😅
I have propagated my yucca stem in water and its been growing for months now. Can i leave it growing in water or do i need to put it into soil. As its been so long will the shock if replanting kill it ?
Hi, I think it is best to grow then in soil if the root is long enough. Water doesn't provid enough nutrition to grow. Hope this is a helpful answer 😃😀
Thank you i shall pot it tomorrow and hope for the best.
Happy New Year
I got a yucca plant from home depot a couple weeks ago and she still doesn't feel dry. I'm hoping I don't kill it, I read watering is bad
Hi Krista, you are right!! They don't like water. You should only water them once in 7 to 10 days in summer months. Just let them complete dry before watering. They are dry tolarent plants 😀
Woow.!spooking dollar c maam,🤣
Cgurado kabang yucca yan halaman mo,unang kita kopalang, dracena.😂
Hahaha singaporean po kasi sya
How I turned yellow leaves into green leaves??
Unfortunately it is very little chance to turned yellow leaves back to green. I have never experience with the yucca yet, but if it is happen I would rather remove the yellow leaves😀
good luck 😀
@@sharanyein3466 OK thanku
Shit 😆 great video ☺️
You are a delicate and attractive woman. Greetings to you from an Arab man. The plants are beautiful and have the pulse of life
