Haworthia Yellowing Tips: Too Dry, Not Too Wet

Haworthia Yellowing Tips: Too Dry, Not Too Wet

Yellowing from leaf tips inward on the outer leaves indicates underwatering, not overwatering. The plant is using up its oldest leaves for moisture.

Correct Watering

Water by weight: soak thoroughly, then wait until pot feels light and soil surface is pale. Don’t let it go bone-dry for extended periods. Morning watering on sunny days is ideal.

Light

Direct morning sun (until noon) is great. Afternoon sun can scorch. Bright indirect light all day works too.

Treat like a cactus: dry between waterings, but don’t desert it.
