Is Your Snake Plant Sick? Learn About Sansevieria Plant Diseases.
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

Okay, so I’ve been having some trouble with my sansevieria plants lately – you know, snake plants. They’re supposed to be super easy to care for, right? “Hard to kill” and all that? Well, mine have been looking a little… sad. So, I started digging into what could be going wrong, and it turns out there are a few common diseases that can mess them up.

My Sansevieria Troubleshooting Adventure

First, I noticed some reddish-brown spots on a couple of the leaves. They were kind of small at first, but they seemed to be spreading. I grabbed my phone and started googling like crazy. Turns out, this could be something called “red leaf spot.”

  • Red Leaf Spot: Yeah, those reddish-brown spots. Apparently, it’s a fungal thing.

I also had some other ones that was mushy.

  • Southern Blight: The base gets all soft and mushy, and then you see this white, webby stuff. That sounded pretty bad.

I checked the soil. It was, admittedly, pretty damp. I tend to overwater things. I learned my lesson the hard way that even though snake plants don’t need much water, they really don’t like sitting in soggy soil.

My next step was to isolate the plants that looked the worst. I didn’t want whatever was going on to spread to my healthy ones. Then, I took some scissors (I cleaned them with rubbing alcohol first!) and carefully cut off the really affected leaves. I made sure to cut well below the spots, into healthy tissue.

After that, I repotted a couple of the plants that were in really bad shape. I used a fresh potting mix that’s specifically for succulents and cacti – it drains way better than the regular stuff. The old soil? Straight into the trash. Didn’t want any lingering fungus spores hanging around.

Going forward, I’m going to be much more careful about watering. I’m going to let the soil dry out completely between waterings, and I might even invest in a moisture meter to be extra sure. I also moved the plants to a spot with a bit more airflow, since that’s supposed to help prevent fungal problems,too.

It’s still a work in progress, but I think I caught things early enough. The plants are already looking a little perkier, and I haven’t seen any new spots popping up. Fingers crossed they make a full recovery! It’s been a learning experience, for sure.
