Why is it drooping and slightly yellow at the tips?

#Dracaena
20ft to light, indirect
3” pot with drainage
Last watered 4 days ago
There’s not a lot to go on this pic but it says no draining. Is it sitting in a pool of water? Does it get enough sun?
My question is what is it planted in? Soil- water? And what are you watering with? I had quite a few that I raised in stones and water. When they outgrew my windowsills (they were 3 feet tall and crawling across the ceiling) I planted them in soil- and they didn’t like that at all. You don’t have much info on your plant I’d tag, but one thing I can tell you is I had the same issue as you’re having, and I was told not to water using tap water as the Chlorine, Flouride and salts can harm the plant. I switched to filtered and/or distilled and mine perked up. Also- no direct sun as it causes sunburn- only bright indirect light - an East facing window where it can handle early morning sun is great. I hope this helps.
I keep mine in water and pebbles about six feet from indirect light. It does great!
