I've been peeling/cutting off the rotting layers (dark and mushy) on my Blue Java near the bottom of the stem. I read that it helps them breathe and prevents the rot to spread into the inside. However I am worried that peeling too much will cause the stem to become flimsy and unable to support the tree. What is the correct approach? Thanks.
Edit: Also, in the future is there a way to prevent this rotting before it becomes a problem?
