Golden Snake Plant Care Location Snake plants do best when placed in an area where they receive indirect light and some direct sunlight. These plants thrive in both full sun and shady environments. Soil Light, well-drained soil is ideal for growing snake plants. This plant thrives in sandy soil. Soil suitable for potting cacti is an excellent option. Water Allow the soil to dry out in between waterings. During the winter, reduce watering to monthly or whenever the soil is dry to the touch. Err on the side of under-watering; too much water can harm the plant. Pruning Prune leaves near the soil with sterile pruners, scissors, or a sharp knife to promote new growth and remove damaged or mature ones. Pruning should be done during the spring or summer when the plant is actively growing. To manage the growth of your snake plant, trim off the tallest leaves. Also, discard any leaves that have blemishes. Pruning causes new leaves to grow. Potting and Repotting When planting, select a durable container material since strong roots can easily break or damage flimsy pots. Dracaena usually grows slowly and usually doesn't need to be re-potted. However, if it's exposed to plenty of sunlight, its growth rate might increase significantly, requiring its re-potting or dividing. It's ideal to re-pot these plants in the springtime. To re-pot a plant, use new potting soil, cactus mix, or a combination of both.
