Make sure that the rubber tree can receive sufficient scattered light.
2. Improper watering Rubber trees have a high demand for water, but excessive watering will cause root rot, which in turn affects the health of the leaves. Rubber trees should keep the soil slightly moist and should not accumulate water.
3. Soil problems Poor soil or poor drainage can cause yellowing of rubber tree leaves. It is recommended to use soil with good air permeability and strong drainage properties.
4. Improper application of fertilizer. Too much or too little fertilizer will affect the growth of rubber trees. Apply appropriate amounts of compound fertilizers or organic fertilizers to maintain a balance of soil nutrients. Rubber tree maintenance tips 1. Place the rubber tree in a place with sufficient light indoors, such as close to windows, and avoid direct sunlight to avoid burning the leaves.

3. Select suitable soil and use soil with good permeability and strong drainage, such as peat soil, perlite, etc., and regularly replace the soil to ensure that the soil nutrients are sufficient.
4. Fertilization management During the period of vigorous growth of rubber trees, apply compound fertilizers or organic fertilizers once a month. After fertilization, water them in time to prevent the fertilizer from burning the roots.
5. Clean leaves Regularly wipe the leaves of the rubber tree with a damp cloth to keep the leaves clean, which is conducive to photosynthesis. 1. Growth cycle Rubber trees have a long growth cycle and generally take 3-5 years to bloom. During this period, attention should be paid to maintenance to ensure the health of the plants.
2. Adaptive rubber trees have strong adaptability and can grow in a variety of environments, but attention should be paid to factors such as light, moisture, and soil to ensure good growth of the plant.
