Check first

  • Is the soil wet, dry, compacted, or sour-smelling?
  • Did light, temperature, or watering change recently?
  • Look under leaves and near stems for pests.

Small fix

Let the top soil dry if it is staying wet, and make sure the pot drains freely.

When to cut back

Remove leaves that are fully dead, mushy, or spreading disease. Do not strip every imperfect leaf at once.
