Causes of yellowing plants on the edge Prevention and maintenance of yellowing plants on the edge In daily life, we often encounter some plants with yellowing edges, which not only affects the beauty of the plants, but may also indicate that the health status of the plants has occurred. Question, what is going on with yellowing edges of the plants? How to prevent and maintain it? This article will reveal you one by one. Reasons for yellowing on the edges of plants 1. Insufficient water Water is the basic requirement for plant growth. If a plant does not get enough water for a long time, the edges of its leaves will turn yellow. This is because the lack of water prevents the roots of the plant from absorbing enough nutrients, which in turn affects the normal physiological functions of the leaves.
2. Plants with insufficient light need appropriate amount of light to carry out photosynthesis. If they are exposed to a dark environment for a long time, the edges of the leaves will gradually turn yellow. This is because insufficient light prevents the plants from carrying out normal photosynthesis, which in turn affects the growth of the leaves.
3. Soil problems Soil is the foundation of plant growth. If the soil is poor, has inappropriate pH or hardened, the plant roots cannot absorb nutrients normally, and the leaf edges will turn yellow, and pests and diseases in the soil will also cause the plant edges to yellow.
4. Infestation by pests and diseases is one of the main causes of yellowing of plant edges. Pests such as aphids, red spiders, and whiteflies, as well as diseases such as root rot and leaf spot disease, can cause yellowing of plant leaf edges. Prevention and maintenance of plants with yellowing edges 1. Appropriate watering According to the growth habits of the plants, reasonably adjust the watering frequency to avoid long-term drought or water accumulation, so as not to cause damage to the plant roots.
2. Properly increase the light and place the plants in a sunny place, but avoid direct sunlight to avoid burning the leaves. For indoor plants, plant growth lights can be used to supplement the light.
3. Improve the soil and replace the soil regularly to ensure that the soil is fertile and breathable. Apply organic fertilizers to increase the pH of the soil to make it suitable for plant growth.
4. Regularly inspect plants to prevent and control pests and diseases, and take timely measures when pests and diseases are discovered. Pesticides, biological control and other methods can be used to control them.
5. Trim branches and leaves. Leaves with yellow edges should be trimmed in time to avoid affecting the overall appearance and growth of the plant.
Plants with yellowing edges are a common phenomenon. Understanding the reasons and taking corresponding prevention and control measures will help the healthy growth of plants. In the actual maintenance process, we must reasonably arrange watering and lighting according to the growth habits of plants., soil and pest control, etc., ensure that plants thrive.
According to the "China Flower Market Report", the annual sales of my country's flower market have exceeded 100 billion yuan, of which the proportion of the indoor plant maintenance market has increased year by year. It can be seen that paying attention to plant maintenance has become the demand of more and more people. I hope Through the introduction of this article, we can help everyone better understand and maintain plants with yellowed edges and make our lives better.
