The lucky money tree has a graceful shape, lush leaves, and is an evergreen plant. Moreover, the lucky money tree has a very auspicious meaning, and many people cultivate it. During the cultivation process, it is common to encounter drooping leaves on the lucky money tree. So, what are the reasons for the drooping leaves of the lucky money tree? Let's explain how to deal with drooping leaves of the lucky money tree.
【Reasons and Solutions for Drooping Leaves of Lucky Money Tree】
<Overwatering>
Among the reasons for drooping leaves of the lucky money tree, overwatering is the most common. When watering the lucky money tree, the soil should not accumulate water. Long-term overly wet potting soil can cause a lack of oxygen in the soil, leading to the rotting of some fibrous roots, hindering normal breathing and the absorption of water and nutrients, causing the leaves to turn yellow and fall off.
Solution: In cases of overwatering, immediately control watering, stop fertilizing, and frequently loosen the soil to ensure good soil aeration.
<Soil Compaction>
Among the reasons for drooping leaves of the lucky money tree, soil compaction can lead to water loss in the plant, as soil compaction can reduce water permeability, preventing the roots from absorbing water, which causes the leaves to lose water and droop.
Solution: In this case, you can only choose to transplant and change the soil. It is recommended to use loose and breathable soil when selecting the soil, and appropriately loosen the soil during the cultivation of the lucky money tree to ensure normal root growth and good water permeability and drainage.
<Drought and Dehydration>
Too much watering can cause the leaves of the lucky money tree to droop, and a lack of water can also affect its growth. When watering the lucky money tree, avoid making the top wet and the bottom dry, as this can affect the absorption of nutrients by the plant and easily cause the leaves to become dull and droop.
Solution: If the drooping leaves are due to drought, we should water a small amount and spray water, allowing the lucky money tree to gradually recover before transitioning to normal watering.
<Inappropriate Sunlight>
What to do if the leaves of the lucky money tree are drooping
For the drooping of the lucky money tree leaves, inappropriate sunlight can also cause them to droop. If there is too little sunlight, the plant's branches and leaves will grow weakly, the leaves will be larger, and they will droop. Similarly, exposing the lucky money tree to direct sunlight can also cause its leaves to droop.
Solution: In this case, the main task is to prune, cutting off a section of the long branches, keeping the main stem at 30cm, and ensuring it has sufficient sunlight, but avoiding direct strong sunlight. Optionally, you can apply a little specialized fertilizer.
<Improper Fertilization>
One of the reasons for the drooping leaves of the lucky money tree is improper fertilization. Long-term lack of nitrogen fertilizer or not changing the potting soil can lead to a deficiency of nutritional elements such as nitrogen in the soil. Excessive fertilization can cause new leaves to become thick and uneven, and old leaves to become尖尖焦黄脱落.
Solution: In case of nutrient deficiency, the lucky money tree should be repotted with new, loose, and fertile potting soil, gradually applying thin, decomposed liquid fertilizer or compound flower fertilizer. In case of excessive fertilization, stop fertilizing immediately, increase watering to allow the fertilizer to flow out from the bottom of the pot, or repot and rinse the root ball with water before replanting.
