Reasons for Privet Leaf Loss: Maintenance skills for Privet Leaf Loss As the seasons change, many plants begin to enter the changing season. Privet, as a common greening plant, is no exception. Many garden conservationists have discovered that Privet Leaf Loss has occurred, which makes people wonder: What should we do if Privet Leaf loses its leaves? Falling leaves on privet does not necessarily mean that there is a problem with the plant. Here we will reveal the reasons for the leaves on privet and the corresponding maintenance techniques. Reasons for losing leaves of privet 1. Natural factors (1) Seasonal changes: privet enters the changing season in autumn, when the temperature gradually decreases and plant growth slows down. Falling leaves are a way for plants to self-regulate.
(2) Light changes: Privet privet has higher requirements for light. If the light is insufficient or too strong, the leaves will fall off.
2. Artificial factors (1) Improper watering: Too much or too little watering will lead to leaves on privet. Too much watering will lead to hypoxia in the roots. Too little watering will dry the soil and affect plant growth.
(2) Improper fertilization: Excessive fertilization or insufficient fertilization will cause leaves on privet. Excessive fertilization will cause damage to plant roots. Insufficient fertilization will affect plant absorption of nutrients.
(3) Pest and insect pests: Privet is susceptible to pests and diseases, such as leaf spot disease, aphids, etc., which can cause leaves to fall off. Tips for maintaining lost leaves of privet 1. Reasonable watering According to the growth habits of privet, keep the soil moist but not wet. During the vigorous growth period, water 1-2 times a week; during the dormant period, water can be appropriately reduced. frequency.
2. Appropriate amount of fertilization During the period of vigorous growth, apply compound fertilizer once a month; during the dormant period, stop fertilization. When fertilizing, pay attention to the amount of fertilization not to be too much to avoid causing fertilizer damage.
3. Properly prune and trim off sick and weak branches, cross branches, and excessively dense branches to maintain an attractive tree shape, which is conducive to ventilation and light transmission of plants.
4. Regularly inspect the Ligustrum lucidum plant to prevent and control pests and diseases, and take timely measures when discovered. For example, leaf spot diseases can be sprayed with 800 times of 50% carbendazim wettable powder; aphids can be sprayed with 10% imidacloprid wettable powder at 1500 times.
5. Pay attention to the fact that the light requirements of Ligustrum lucidum are high. They should be planted in a place with sufficient sunshine. If the light is insufficient, the plant position can be adjusted appropriately.
Falling leaves of privet does not necessarily mean that there is a problem with the plant. By understanding the reasons for losing leaves of privet and corresponding maintenance techniques, we can effectively prevent and solve this problem, pay attention to the growth status of plants, and promptly discover and deal with problems., help improve the ornamental value and service life of privet.
