✅ Care Guide for Croton Dreadlock
Light:
Loves bright, indirect light or filtered sun
Direct sunlight intensifies colors—but avoid midday scorch
Low light can cause dulling of its vivid tones
Watering:
Water when topsoil feels dry to the touch (about 1–1.5 inches deep)
Keep soil evenly moist, but never soggy
Reduce frequency during winter
Temperature:
Ideal range: 20°C to 35°C
Avoid cold drafts—Crotons dislike chilly temps below 15°C
Humidity:
Prefers moderate to high humidity
Misting 2–3 times a week or placing near other plants helps prevent crispy edges
Soil:
Use a quick-draining, aerated mix: compost + garden soil + perlite or coarse sand
Ensure drainage holes to prevent root rot
Fertilizer:
Feed every 3 weeks during active growth (spring–autumn) with balanced NPK
Use a foliage booster once a month to keep colors saturated
Maintenance:
• Remove any discolored or damaged leaves for tidiness
• Rotate the plant regularly for even growth and sun exposure
• Wipe leaves occasionally with a damp cloth to highlight their sheen
• Repot every 1.5–2 years or when growth slows due to root binding
✅ Common Problems
• Leaf drop: Often caused by sudden environmental change—especially overwatering or cold exposure
• Dull colors: Usually due to low light or insufficient feeding
• Crispy edges: Low humidity or underwatering—boost moisture around plant
• Pests: Rare but may attract mealybugs or spider mites—treat with neem oil
• Slowed growth: Normal in winter—resume feeding in spring
