Literally cringing because I've just "treated" a plant with root rot and I've done it all wrong. Thank you Kaylee for such a helpful video. Now I'm off to treat my plant again--the right way!
Same here! I carefully repotted my root rot damaged snake plant a couple of weeks ago -seemed to be fine afterward- but just noticed yesterday that another large leaf is going. I see now that I missed a couple of vital steps.
Oh my god the amount of time you must have spent on research and especially editing... I really love your videos, they are super informative and always look amazing:)
Worth mentioning, not all Cinnamon will work. Most Cinnamon is not even Cinnamon but made of other plants or chemical flavorings, its Ceylon Cinnamon that is the true anti fungal / pest deterrent
This will be why the shop bought cinnamon powder never worked for me. I used to use it on the ends of cuttings where I'd removed rot and it just made things worse
Most commercially sold cinnamon is from the tree Cinnamomum cassia. Ceylon cinnamon is from Cinnamomum verum (formerly called Cinnamomum zeylanicum). Meaning, both products are from very closely related trees. Both products contain similar chemicals, such as cinnamaldehyde, but the proportions vary between the two. I think it's likely that either one should work against fungus and other pathogens.
So far, this is the best and most straightforward easy to understand breakdown of anything plant related that I have seen on TH-cam in over a year! Thank you so much for this because I recently moved and I suspected all of my plants got root rot. After watching this video, I am sure of it! my silver sword, my bird of paradise, my fig tree, and my Monstera… Actually, even my snake plant all seem to be suffering, and now I know what to do because of you!
I watched this video last night bc I was researching why my leaves where turning yellow. I know it wasn’t a watering or humidity issue as I have a moisture meter and a humidifier. I checked the roots this morning and low and behold, root rot!! I cleaned off all the soil and gave it a little hydrogen peroxide bath and repotted her. Hoping this saves her. Wish me luck
Please talk about how you root plants in Leca and how you transition plants successfully to Leca. I know there are lots of videos out there, but I trust you more. Pleaseeeeee
Air is really good for root rot also. My Thai got root rot when I first got it an I took it out of the water an laid it out in the air for couple of hours. Then trimmed off rotted part an left it out in air another couple hours. No problems since. Good luck 😀
Growing up I will always see my mom add cinnamon and garlic water/tea to her plants to prevent treat fungus. And I've done the same thing. My plants have been happy 😁 i love how put together Kaylee's videos always are
Thank you Kaylee Ellen. I'm dealing with root rot and fertilizer burn for the first time after being out of town for a few months and I'm hoping to salvage my plants.
Thanks so much for all the time and energy you put into this video, Kaylee. I’ve had houseplants for a long time and have dealt with root rot before but you taught me a lot I didn’t know! I love your channel and never miss a video. I have learned a great deal from you and appreciate you so much. Thank so much again!
I just recently discovered your channel and I'm going, to be honest, here, you are AMAZING!!! I love the way you explain things, your passion for plants, and your smart decisions when it comes to business! Big thank you xxxx
Wow thank you for this wonderfully comprehensive explanation! I am just starting to grow herbs using the Kratky method and ran into the root rot horror. I've been watching so many videos to learn about it but none were as thorough and professionally presented as this one! I'll be diving into more of your content =)
I love how comprehensive this video is on root rot. Also very helpful and informative for someone like me who’s considering to shift to Leca substrates. Thanks Kaylee💚😇
I am going out to buy peroxide right now, thank you this is exactly what i was looking for. I would really like to see you working through the roots of an import set (perhaps 5 or so), and seeing your decision making process for aselection of plants covering both examples of root and stem rot. These examples were really helpful. Seeing through your eyes for an larger set covering multiple species and levels of maturity would really make me feel more confident :) thank you for being amazing!
This has really been a lot of help for my Lily's and I am outdoor straight soil giant calla Lilly's and this rot has hit twice the first time I saved 90% and this time I was not aware it was so advanced that I've lost half of my plants but everything in this video is a game changer
My poor pothos has been in a nasty cycle for over 6 months. It died all the way back so I took the few healthy stems out, replaced the pot and substrate, but I didn’t kill the bacteria with hydrogen peroxide. It’s been barely holding on, not visibly rotting but also not growing, so I took some old cuttings from it that I keep in a jar and tried to fill it in a little, they are all dying right now in the pot. I’m just going to take them out, sanitize them, and keep them in the jar until I can get some better substrate than plain old garden mix. I really feel like I’m losing this battle
I really like your delivery style. It makes you sound very trustable. I'm on the opposite end of the spectrum. No matter how I put my point across, people will be second-guessing me.
Hi Kaylee, I have tomato plants that are growing very quickly, but my only Roma tomato plant is suffering. I assumed I was overwatering that particular type of tomato plant so I stopped and noticed the soil still wasn't drying up. So I took it out of the soil, carefully washed the roots out with tea tree soap, brought it inside, and put it in my hydroponic bath with hydrogen peroxide and oxygen stones for 3 days. This has immediately brought back every suffering plant I've ever put in it overnight and is awesome for getting clippings to grow strong roots. However, this plant stayed wilted even after 3 days. So I went ahead and replanted it in fresh soil with extra worm castings and watered it somewhat conservatively with a weak compost tea. However, after 3 weeks, the soil still remained wet from when I replanted. It's as if it is almost unable to absorb anything including water. It gets the morning sun but is shaded from the afternoon sun because I live in Florida. I have tried moving it a couple times with no effect. The stem and the leaves are still green and the stem is still strong although extremely wilted, I've had to increase stake supports a bit. I'm concerned about it sitting in the wet soil this long and not sure what else to do and whether it will get worse or better. The roots are very thin and break easily even though it was my largest tomato plant at 15". Any advice is welcome. Thank you so much!!
Loved this video - especially for the level of detail, science and recommendations beyond typical root rot guidance (is, don't overwater, cut it off, and hope for the best). thanks for all you do!
I bought a Monstera deliciosa in March. The plant took almost a month to unfurl the only new leaf it had come with. In Spain, bright indirect light, mid May, no changes to the plant whatsoever. I tried everything: putting it outside, less watering, more watering, spraying the leaves, repotting... until two weeks ago I noticed a start of yellowing leaves and general decay on the plant. I washed away all the soil and 85% of the roots were rotten (I swear the plant didn’t look that bad on its top parts) and now is on lecca, adding some rooting product into the water I managed to get a tiny root ball that I’m sure it’s the thing that keeps the plant thriving. I was hesitant on the H2O2 thing, but today I decided to give it a try because the plant keeps deteriorating, but at a slower pace. I’m also going to cut the leaves once they start yellowing by now so the plant can use its resources to root properly. Now all I’ll do is wait...
I always keep cinnamon on hand for my plants. Typically it is for a rooting hormone. When my mother in law's money tree got mealy bugs, I learned about using it for pests. The other day I found a pest in one of my succulents. I sprayed it down with an alchohol and water mix, then put cinnamon in water bottle and just shook it until it was easy squeezed of the spray spout. I watered my plants with it. They seemed to like it. With the hydrogen peroxide, can you water your plants with the 1:1 mix? If so, how often should this be done? Thanks! 😊
My peperomia obtusifolia had brown spots and wilting and I thought it’s just cuz I over watered it and it’ll get better if I let its soil dry out on itself.. but what I didn’t know is that that was root rotting and now I have lost all the leaves but the stem..I discarded the soil and sanitized the pot it was in ,I cut off the dead part of the stem and now I have about a two inch long stem with a few healthy roots.. what do I do? what I did to not kill off what I have left of my “plant” is place it in water and a shaded spot and I’m hoping for the best
Very helpful sharing ideas . Thanks a lot . I can try this method esp. W/ hydrogen peroxide in my plants and so with the cinnamon powder. Very absorbing .
my grandmother gave me her giant Christmas cactus (like over 2 feet wide and almost 2 feet tall) I put it into a slightly bigger pot since it looked a little bound. I started noticing yellow leaves and when I took a look today they roots had really rotten away. I don't know what soil she used but it felt like there was a lot of clay. I had no idea when I transplanted. I really don't want to cut away that much of the plant! But I guess I have to do what I have to do
i did this concentration you recommend for cannabis. the roots died almost all, so did the plant. but after that shock the roots where healthy again. so probably for seasional plants concentration should be adjustet a little bit. but good content imho
Thank you for posting this very comprehensive video on root rot. I do wish though that there were some information about root rot applicable to outdoor vegetable plants.
Which ratio do you use for the self made anti fungal cinnamon spray? It’s probably Ceylon cinnamon, I assume, isn’t it? In the last part you also mentioned using Hydrogen peroxide instead. Do you use it as a spray for the surface of the potting mix or do use this kind of solution to water a plant? Sorry, I got so many questions 🙈
Lost my huge raven zz recently due to root rot. Brand new, we spent only couple months together. It was devastating. Spotted it too late. The smell tho... Oooph. Tried to save some "potatoes", but they also died eventually. Rooting what's left out from foliage right now. Thank you for these tips, didn't know some of the things before! As a serial underwaterer, I'm always at risk for root rot.
Dear charming Kaylee, if you can, talk about agloaema plants along with use of h2o2 properties for plants. You seems to be a plant magician. Completely charmed with beauty , of yourself and plants. Incredible !
Hey Kaylee, thank you so much for this informative video. I’m glad to have such information ℹ️. Your become for me like Netflix!, that I’m watching your videos everyday with pleasure 💚🌱🙋🏻♂️
Thank you for this video! I have a potted azalea that's been doing horribly recently and the soil has always been wet. I'm going to fix it now so I hope it survives
When she mentioned possibly using a fungicide after the peroxide dip, does that mean just spraying the roots down? Would you use neem oil, or some other type of fungicide?
I lightly dust the roots with Captan Fungicide. Sorta like a powder covered pastry. After I do the peroxide soak/dip You can use a mesh strainer or even a sugar duster. I got mine at the dollar store so I didn't have to use the ones I use for cooking/pastry making.
I am not Kaylee Ellen but I will say that h2o2 kills everything including anything beneficial in the soil so it’s probably only good to use as a last resort.
@@annedharma so to clarify, you use or in the water as part of a regular routine? I was just confused at if she is recommending spraying the tip of the soil with it or actually watering with it
I got a plant in sphagnum in the mail, kept the moss moist and in place at my siblings for a few days, at home I removed all the sphagnum and put it into water, the roots were extremely dark and hard, the plant is a philodendron heterocraspedon, it had few chunks of pon on it and I have now placed it in pon again but the oldest leaf is going yellow and the newest is going floppy, the mid leaf looks completely fine still. I have dealt with A LOT of root rot before, I'm a bad overwaterer, the roots do not feel like they have rot, however they do not feel like healthy roots either, just thin dark and dry roots, what should I do? Cut them ALL off and start new?? The root system also smelled a bit musty? Not like rot at all, just kinda musty, never smelled that on roots before, idk what to do... I do not want to lose this plant
I wish you had covered if you completely lost the entire root system on due to poor packaging! I lost alllll the roots on my decursiva and idk what to do! I’ve tried everything 😭
Yes, thank you for this video. I’m trying to ID what’s wrong with my ficus altissima she’s got brown yellow orange spots which have now turned jet black… just occurred randomly after having this plant for a while. Going to check the root system today and try that peroxide remedy. ❤️
This is the MOST informative video I've ever watched about root rot. Kaylee dropping some science on us, and I'm here for it.
Literally cringing because I've just "treated" a plant with root rot and I've done it all wrong. Thank you Kaylee for such a helpful video. Now I'm off to treat my plant again--the right way!
Did it make it?! 🥺

As a science person, I really appreciate how you explain plant care with science. How you break things down is awesome!
Oh my god the amount of time you must have spent on research and especially editing...
I really love your videos, they are super informative and always look amazing:)
Worth mentioning, not all Cinnamon will work. Most Cinnamon is not even Cinnamon but made of other plants or chemical flavorings, its Ceylon Cinnamon that is the true anti fungal / pest deterrent
i don't buy cinnamon. is there a way to tell if the cinnamon is Ceylon cinnamon? would it be in the packaging? thanks!

Love this! I'd love a Leca video about how care for your plants in Leca at the shop, what nutrients you use etc. 😊💚
Awesome production in this video Kaylee! The content was good, great music, and animations. You're getting so good at this!
Please talk about how you root plants in Leca and how you transition plants successfully to Leca. I know there are lots of videos out there, but I trust you more. Pleaseeeeee
I love how clean and professional the visuals and the editing are in this video! Wonderful advice, thank you!
That thumbs up in part 5 was amazing. Total 90s DIY vines and I’m living for it!!
Yes im here for it, I just had root rot on my baby Thai so I need this
Air is really good for root rot also. My Thai got root rot when I first got it an I took it out of the water an laid it out in the air for couple of hours. Then trimmed off rotted part an left it out in air another couple hours. No problems since. Good luck 😀

I just recently discovered your channel and I'm going, to be honest, here, you are AMAZING!!! I love the way you explain things, your passion for plants, and your smart decisions when it comes to business! Big thank you xxxx
Best video on root rot..Thank you!
After repotting, should I water the plant right away, or wait for a couple of days?
WAIT
That’s like my number one question but no one seems to mention this in their videos!
I’ve adopted a monstera and found this very educational and informative. Thank you.❤
Wow thank you for this wonderfully comprehensive explanation! I am just starting to grow herbs using the Kratky method and ran into the root rot horror. I've been watching so many videos to learn about it but none were as thorough and professionally presented as this one! I'll be diving into more of your content =)
It is a great video. I might have missed it but I see she doesn't respond and I don't see anything about watering right AFTER repotting!
Love your accent, btw. This is the clearest and most comprehensive video I've seen. Highly recommend it.
I love how comprehensive this video is on root rot. Also very helpful and informative for someone like me who’s considering to shift to Leca substrates. Thanks Kaylee💚😇
holy heck this was THE most helpful video regarding info on root rot, HANDS DOWN!

well, this is the most informative video about root rot for sure. I like how you always get straight to the point wasting no one's time.
So cool how your back drop isn't even a backdrop. It's real, but looks like a backdrop because it's so perfect lol
One of your best! Everyone need to watch this 🙌🏻
Loved this video - especially for the level of detail, science and recommendations beyond typical root rot guidance (is, don't overwater, cut it off, and hope for the best). thanks for all you do!
Great video, very informative. Please do more 101 topics like propagation, fertilising, pests etc.
Been looking for an informational and detailed video on plant care like this. Really appreciate the great video quality. As always love your videos

Same question here! Do I use the H2O2 solution as watering the plant? Or just spray the roots?
Great video, Just caught a plant suffering root rot. I think I got it early, will follow these tips.
Best info on root rot that I’ve seen. Thank you❤❤
Love the informational content! It’s reassuring just to hear information from a trusted source, even if I know it already.
Diatomaceous earth does wonders for fungus gnats and other plant pests!!
Very informative video. I've never known what to look for when (re)potting as for spotting root rot and to know how to deal with it. Thanks so much.
Very informative and...a lot of work
Lost my huge raven zz recently due to root rot. Brand new, we spent only couple months together. It was devastating. Spotted it too late. The smell tho... Oooph. Tried to save some "potatoes", but they also died eventually. Rooting what's left out from foliage right now.

This is the type of informative content I'm here for. Very nice video!
Excellent video. I have one question. For a water and peroxide mix, how often would one apply this as a prevention?
After using the hydrogen peroxide mix, do you let the roots air dry before replanting and if so, how long?
Hey Kaylee,
thank you so much for this informative video. I’m glad to have such information ℹ️.
Your become for me like Netflix!, that I’m watching your videos everyday with pleasure 💚🌱🙋🏻♂️
I love this video it’s so informative and detailed and it helped me with my monstera’s root rot thank you!!
Thank you! Need this, planning a repot session tomorrow :)
Thank you for this video! I have a potted azalea that's been doing horribly recently and the soil has always been wet. I'm going to fix it now so I hope it survives
you are a blessing Dr. Ellen
I love the new layout of the videos too!!
When she mentioned possibly using a fungicide after the peroxide dip, does that mean just spraying the roots down? Would you use neem oil, or some other type of fungicide?
Also curious about this
I lightly dust the roots with Captan Fungicide. Sorta like a powder covered pastry. After I do the peroxide soak/dip
You can use a mesh strainer or even a sugar duster. I got mine at the dollar store so I didn't have to use the ones I use for cooking/pastry making.
@@i.graciaoizz3051 Thanks for a bit more information on that! Really helpful😃
You can spray the roots, but I usually water the plant as I normally would but with a systemic fungicide solution.
Thanks Kaylee, this video just helped saved my Monstera
I love hydrogen peroxide. I add it to my water when I propagate too.
Me too. With all props
Brilliant, extremely practical and straight forward content.
Super helpful video, Kaylee! Thorough and to informative ♥️♥️
So well done. Thank you for the information Kaylee Ellen ❤️🌱
Would you recommend using hydrogen peroxide regularly? If so, how often would be good?
I am not Kaylee Ellen but I will say that h2o2 kills everything including anything beneficial in the soil so it’s probably only good to use as a last resort.
@@StrangeDisposition I agree. It's a very VERY last resort. Simply because peroxide destroys everything, bad and GOOD baceteria
I use it most waterings with rare aroids.
@@annedharma so to clarify, you use or in the water as part of a regular routine? I was just confused at if she is recommending spraying the tip of the soil with it or actually watering with it
@@arches00 in the water to water the plant, routinely
Great tips, Kaylee. I might need to go back and fix my attempt to save my RT. Missed a couple of these steps.
I love how dramatic the music it make me feel like I’m on a real mission to treat root rot 🧐
Thank you so much for this video Kaylee! I learned so much. Please make this a series or something :)
Thank you for always sharing your wisdom and knowledge! Look amazing as always too!!! ❤️
Thanks for covering the use of Hydrogen Peroxide, I will go and get some. Great presentation, as always! 🌹🌱🌷
I got a plant in sphagnum in the mail, kept the moss moist and in place at my siblings for a few days, at home I removed all the sphagnum and put it into water, the roots were extremely dark and hard, the plant is a philodendron heterocraspedon, it had few chunks of pon on it and I have now placed it in pon again but the oldest leaf is going yellow and the newest is going floppy, the mid leaf looks completely fine still.
I have dealt with A LOT of root rot before, I'm a bad overwaterer, the roots do not feel like they have rot, however they do not feel like healthy roots either, just thin dark and dry roots, what should I do?

I wish you had covered if you completely lost the entire root system on due to poor packaging! I lost alllll the roots on my decursiva and idk what to do! I’ve tried everything 😭
Thank you, this video is a life saver for my poor Dracaena!
Most amazing informative video I've ever watched thankyou
Best visual video
Please do a full video of what to do about spider mites
As always, very thorough. Thank you!
Yes, thank you for this video. I’m trying to ID what’s wrong with my ficus altissima she’s got brown yellow orange spots which have now turned jet black… just occurred randomly after having this plant for a while. Going to check the root system today and try that peroxide remedy. ❤️
