Featured Replies

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!77206EBF-869F-4D75-A841-8CD88B7AEBC1.thumb.jpeg.7485fcec6a90d7d23883beca1d5bc98e.jpeg6653E7F9-F6AB-4789-BD18-9C6DAECAD9FC.thumb.jpeg.2eaec468d0d6652e7245b55c85e9df33.jpeg0072128D-9D6D-4B3D-8D29-0D1F3133A859.thumb.jpeg.9ff2ad6a0e01e12fc877570766b61b0c.jpeg96166142-564C-4C9B-B737-9E23397755F6.thumb.jpeg.0a188dffaa56a4d3dfb92e527252b83e.jpeg

    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.

    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? 

    To be safe spray copper fungicide and check for spear pull. If not throughout the next month its probably minor transplant damage.

    Sunburn?

    No spear pull and I did spray with copper fungicide 

    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.
