Reasons for curling leaves of green ingots 1. Insufficient moisture Green ingots have a high demand for water.

3. Insufficient light Green ingots like to scatter light. If they are in a dark environment for a long time, they will cause the leaves to curl. This is because insufficient light will affect the photosynthesis of plants and hinder their growth.
4. Improper application of fertilizer Excessive application of fertilizer or improper application of fertilizer will cause the leaves of green ingot to curl. This is because excessive or improper fertilizer will damage the soil structure and affect the absorption of water and nutrients by plants.

Pests such as red spiders and scale insects will absorb nutrients from the plant, causing the leaves to curl. Tips for maintaining curly green ingot leaves 1.

4. Reasonable fertilization Select the fertilizer suitable for green ingots and apply it according to the instructions. The fertilization frequency is generally once a month to avoid excessive fertilization.
