Tigerpalm Posted May 9 Report Share Posted May 9 I just transplanted this pindo palm and two of the frounds are browning. One looks like it had damage in transplant and happen over a prolonged period. The other browner one happened like overnight. I have been watering pretty heavy does this look like overwater damage? Thanks! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Chance Posted May 9 Report Share Posted May 9 Honestly I suspect bud rot. Especially after planting palms can stall out while they grow in roots. If they get fungus in the growth point it can have that look. If you tug on the new spear it may pull out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigerpalm Posted May 9 Author Report Share Posted May 9 The black at the bottom is just where the people I got it from had the dirt to far up and I assume water sealed it(this isn’t part of the issue I don’t believe)? There are multiple new fronds and all feel very sturdy. Any suggestions on what to do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChicagoPalma Posted May 10 Report Share Posted May 10 To be safe spray copper fungicide and check for spear pull. If not throughout the next month its probably minor transplant damage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swolte Posted May 11 Report Share Posted May 11 Its normal for plants to lose older leaves after transplanting. After all, they need to adjust for having a much smaller root system, especially if it was dug and roots were damaged. As for watering, keep the soil moist (use a finger test or one of those cheap moist meters) but not wet. For the rest, be patient. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
