Brazil wood leaves turn yellow and dry at the tips
Abstract: This article discusses the knowledge related to the reasons and solutions for the yellowing leaves of Brazil wood and hydroponic Brazil wood. Let's follow the editor to see the specific content! 1. Soil pH is too alkaline. The best mixture for potting Brazil wood is a combination of decomposed leaf soil, potting soil, and coarse sand. If the soil chosen is not suitable, the lack of soluble iron and other elements that can be absorbed by the plant in the soil will cause the leaves to turn yellow gradually. It is important to choose the right soil for planting and to frequently water with iron sulfate solution during the growing period. 2. Overwatering. Brazil wood does not require much water and prefers a high humidity environment, but the potting soil should not be waterlogged to avoid root rot due to poor ventilation. Too much watering can keep the potting soil of Brazil wood too wet for a long time, causing soil hypoxia, rotting of some fibrous roots, hindering normal respiration and the absorption of water and nutrients, leading to yellowing and falling of leaves. The solution to this situation is to immediately control watering, stop fertilizing, and frequently loosen the soil to ensure good soil aeration. 3. Insufficient watering. Brazil wood requires a relatively high humidity in the surrounding environment. If the watering is too little and the surrounding air is dry, it can easily cause the leaves to become dull and lose their luster, wilt and droop, and turn yellow and fall off. The solution to this situation is to water a small amount and spray water to gradually restore it before returning to normal watering. 4. Dry air. Brazil wood requires a relatively high humidity in the surrounding environment. If the indoor air is too dry, Brazil wood often shows yellowing at the tips of the leaves. In this case, it is important to take measures such as spraying water and covering with a plastic film to increase the humidity and provide a better growing environment with proper humidity for Brazil wood. 5. Insufficient light. Brazil wood enjoys sunlight. If Brazil wood is kept in a shaded or poorly lit area for a long time, it can lead to yellowing of the leaves. It needs to be moved to a place with sufficient but not intense light for planting. 6. Poor ventilation. If Brazil wood is fertilized with too much nitrogen and the branches and leaves grow too densely, combined with long-term lack of pruning, it can easily cause insufficient light in the inner leaves, leading to yellowing and falling of leaves. It should be fertilized reasonably and pruning should be strengthened to ensure good ventilation and light. 7. Insufficient fertilization. Brazil wood needs to continue fertilizing. If no nitrogen fertilizer has been applied for a long time or the pot has not been changed, the lack of nutritional elements such as nitrogen in the soil can lead to weak branches and leaves, and yellowing leaves. The solution to this situation is to promptly replace with new loose and fertile potting soil and gradually apply diluted decomposed liquid fertilizer or compound flower fertilizer.
The above is a specific introduction to the yellowing and drying of the tips of Brazil wood leaves and the causes and solutions for the yellowing leaves of hydroponic Brazil wood. I hope you will like it!
