What should I do if the leaves of the money tree turn yellow?
The web tells everyone about the introduction of the flower clinic for the money tree, what should I do if the leaves of the money tree turn yellow? Next is a comprehensive introduction.
The yellowing of the leaves of the money tree may be caused by the following reasons, in addition to excessive watering:
1) Long-term lack of fertilizer, no application of nitrogen fertilizer or potting and water changing for a long time, the lack of nutrients such as nitrogen in the water leads to weak branches and leaves, thin and yellow leaves. It is necessary to change to new nutrient water and gradually apply thin and decomposed liquid fertilizer or compound flower fertilizer.
2) Over-fertilization, excessive fertilization can cause new leaves to be thick and uneven, old leaves to dry and yellow, and fall off. Fertilization should be stopped immediately, water changing should be increased to let the fertilizer flow out, or the pot should be turned over, the bulb should be rinsed with water, and then replanted in the pot.
3) High temperature and heat, if the flowers are placed in a high-temperature area and exposed to strong sunlight, it can easily cause the young leaves to have dry and burnt leaf tips and edges, or yellow and fall off. They should be moved to a well-ventilated and cool place in time.
4) Excessive shading, if the flowers are kept in a shaded area or a place with insufficient light for a long time, it will lead to yellowing of the branches and leaves.
5) Soil and water are too alkaline, due to the lack of soluble iron and other elements that can be absorbed by the water, the leaves will gradually turn yellow. Acidic soil should be selected for planting, and iron sulfate water should be watered frequently during growth.
6) Poor ventilation, if too much nitrogen fertilizer is applied, the branches and leaves grow too luxuriantly, and if they are not pruned for a long time, the leaves inside the pot lack light, which can easily cause yellowing and falling off of the leaves. Reasonable fertilization and pruning should be strengthened to make it ventilated and well-lit.
7) Dry air, when the indoor air is too dry, the flowers often show phenomena such as dry leaf tips or burnt leaf edges. Measures such as spraying water or covering with a plastic film should be taken to increase the humidity of the air.
8) Improper temperature, if the room temperature is too low in winter, the flowers will be damaged by cold, causing the leaves to turn yellow, and in severe cases, they will turn yellow and die. If the room temperature is too high, the plant's transpiration is too strong, and the supply of water and nutrients from the roots is insufficient, which will also cause the leaves to turn yellow. The room temperature should be adjusted in time.
9) Pest damage, leaf spot disease caused by fungal and other pathogens can easily cause local necrosis of the leaves, appearing as yellow spots or patches, and in severe cases, the whole leaf will wither and fall off. Leaves infected with mosaic virus will show yellow-green mottled patterns; infested by scale insects, red spiders, etc.
10) Strong stimulation, excessive concentration of pesticides used for pest control, or exposure to toxic gases in the air, or suddenly pouring cold water when the temperature is high can easily cause local yellowing and burning of the leaf tips or surfaces, and even the whole plant can wither and die. Therefore, it is important to use pesticides properly and try to eliminate air pollution sources.
Avoid watering flowers with cold water around noon in the hot summer. Lastly, it should be mentioned that yellowing leaves in potted plants are sometimes caused by one reason, but are often due to multiple factors. A correct diagnosis should be made to treat the symptoms appropriately.
The above discussion on what to do if the leaves of the money tree turn yellow is hoped to bring a little help to your life!
