Very bright light. You should be thinking in terms of watering on an 'as needed' basis, rather than a schedule. Water when a sharpened dowel rod stuck deep into the pot comes out clean/dry. You should be able to water so that at least 10-15% of the total volume of water applied exits the drain hole. If you can't, you need to find a way so you CAN water as described, or take steps to ensure the entire soil volume gets flushed regularly. The goal here is to prevent soluble salts from accumulating and negatively affecting growth and appearance. Al

I am assuming this is the tropical, Yucca elephantipis (Spineless Yucca). Just insert the canes into slightly moist sandy soil, place in a sunny warm spot and wait a bit. Don't worry about te dying, older leaves, new shoots will soon appear. They are easy plants.

Hi, my taller yucca cane has drooping, curling, and yellow leaves while the shorter one is thriving. I water thoroughly every 10 days or so, once the top 3 in. of soil is dry. Does anyone know what this means? I think it means the tall stalk has roots that go deeper, and I'm not letting the soil down there dry properly while the roots of the short stalk stay dry in the shallow areas of soil (more favorable for this species). Should I water it even less than once every 10 days? Should I not soak the soil? I use distilled water and the soil is whatever it was originally potted in. Second less pressing question is about my burgundy rubber tree. When I first got it, a new leaf would grow every few weeks, but it hasn't grown at all in a couple months now. It looks healthy and the leaves are a good color with no discolored tips, but the top leaves are angling upwards like it wants more sunlight? I heard these things can grow up to 3 feet in a year, but I've only seen a couple leaves so I'm a little worried I'm doing something wrong. I don't know the term for it, but the reddish tips where new leaves grow/emerge from have not shown any growth in months. Is it hibernating or something? Thanks in advanced!
