I have heard that you do need to let the water drain from the pot after a watering. I had the same problem with my much smaller plant and a friend of mine said to just let the soil dry up. I did and within two weeks it was producing new stems from the trunks and the top. Now I just water thouroughly and dump out the resevour after it is fully drained... you could also try this link http://mrec.ifas.ufl.edu/Foliage/folnotes/chinadol.htm
. It is a little dry but has some helpful information
