Dracaena (Corn Plant) Repotting Stress: Undo It

Newly bought 3-ft dracaena repotted into "good sized pot" = classic overpotting stress. Dark spots on leaves = early root rot symptoms.

Immediate Fix

  1. Remove added soil.
  2. Return to original pot (or same size).
  3. Do not water until top quarter dry.

Why This Happens

  • New environment = stress. Repotting = double stress.
  • Excess soil holds water → roots rot.
  • Symptoms appear on leaves weeks later.
