What's the matter with the mage dropping leaves so badly?
The little life experience I brought today is about what happened when the mage loses leaves so badly and how to solve the problem of green plants and flowers. Next, I will let you understand it together.
#What's wrong with the mage losing leaves so badly? (Reason analysis + comprehensive guide to solutions)##1. Analysis of the main reasons for the leaves falling out of the mage's potted plants ### 1. Leaf shedding caused by lighting problems Lighting conditions are the primary factor affecting the health of the mage. Insufficient light will cause the plant to grow excessively, the spacing between leaves will widen, and the lower leaves will gradually turn yellow and fall off; while in summer, strong direct light will cause the leaves to burn and fall off after sunspots appear. The ideal lighting environment is 4-6 hours of soft sunshine every day in spring and autumn. Appropriate shade is needed in summer (50% shading rate is appropriate), and full sunshine is acceptable in winter.### 2. Falling leaves caused by improper watering-excessive watering-can lead to hypoxia and rot in the roots. At the beginning, the leaves are soft and yellow, and at the later stage, large areas of falling leaves occur. It can be judged by the following symptoms: -The pot soil has been moist and not dried for a long time-water-stained spots appear at the base of the leaves-the stems are soft and black * Solution: Stop watering immediately, check the root condition, prune the rotten root system and replace it with breathable new soil. Replant. *### 3. The stress response caused by sudden changes in temperature is sensitive to temperature changes. When the ambient temperature is: -When it is below 5℃, it will enter a dormant state-growth stagnation will occur above 35℃. Both situations will be accompanied by falling leaves. This is the plant's self-protection mechanism. The optimal growth temperature is 15-28℃, and it is ideal to keep the temperature difference between day and night at 8-10℃.### 4. Consequences of improper fertilizer use Improper fertilization is mainly manifested in two aspects: 1. - - Excess nutrients- -: Especially too much nitrogen fertilizer will cause the leaves to grow and become brittle, and they will fall off when touched lightly. 2. - - Malnutrition- -: Long-term non-fertilization will cause old leaves to yellowing and shedding, and new leaves to become smaller and thinner ### 5. Identification of symptoms of pest and disease invasion- -Scale insects- -: White waxy secretions appear on the back of the leaves- -Red spiders- -: Yellow spots appear on the leaves, and in severe cases, spider webs- -root mealybugs- -: The surface of the basin soil has white cotton-like substances. These three pests will cause the leaves to fall off when they absorb plant juice, which requires timely prevention and control.## 2. Practical methods to solve the problem of mage leaf falling ### 1. Scientific watering skills- -The golden rule of watering- -: -Growing season (spring and autumn): Pour thoroughly after the pot soil is completely dried-Dormancy period (summer and winter): Extend the watering interval and keep the pot soil slightly dry. Judgment method: Use a bamboo stick inserted into the pot soil 2-3 cm, pull it out without moisture traces to water.### 2. Light management plan adjusts light according to different seasons: Season| lighting requirements| Precautions--|---|---Spring| All-day sunshine| Pay attention to gradually adapt to summer| Morning light| 11:00-15:00 Shade Autumn| All-day sunshine| The increase in temperature difference is conducive to coloring in winter| full sun| Avoid cold wind ### 3. Key temperature control points: - ≥30℃: Strengthen ventilation, spray cooling- ≤10℃: Move indoors, stop watering-Best temperature difference: temperature difference between day and night 8-10℃## 4. Guidelines for Reasonable Fertilization Recommended fertilization plan: -Growth period: fleshy special fertilizer diluted once a month-Fertilization principle: "small amounts and multiple times", and the concentration is controlled at 1/2 of the standard amount-Special period: Stop fertilization at high temperatures in summer and low temperatures in winter ### 5. Pest and pest control measures-Three-step control measures- -: 1. - - Prevention- -: Keep the environment ventilated and spray garlic water regularly 2. - - Initial stage- -: Use a cotton swab dipped in alcohol to wipe the insect body 3. - - Severe period- -: Use acetamiprid or avermectin spray ##3. Maintenance countermeasures for special seasons ## 1. Key points for summer maintenance- -sunshade treatment- -: Use sunshade net (shading rate 50-70%)- -Water control skills- -: Choose to water in the evening, and halve the watering amount- -Cooling method- -: Spray in the morning and evening (avoid noon)### 2. Key points for winter maintenance- -Thermal insulation measures- -: Indoor maintenance, away from windows- -Ventilation requirements- -: Select noon ventilation- - -Light supplement- -: You can use fill light (6-8 hours a day)##4. Correction of common misunderstandings in maintenance ### 1. Misunderstanding about changing pots- -Misunderstanding- -: Frequent changing pots promotes growth- -Fact--: The master can change pots once in 2-3 years (matters needing attention) is reflected in ① spring ② drying after pruning roots 1-2 days ③ Use breathable granular soil ### 2. Hazards of over-protection- -Wrong practices- -: Long-term indoor maintenance- -Correct methods- -: Ensure sufficient light and ventilation. Symptoms need to be adjusted in time when the leaves become thinner and the stems become thin and weak ##5. Advanced Maintenance Skills ### 1. Pruning promotes rejuvenation Timing and methods: -Best time: Spring growth period-Operation points: Keep 3-5 healthy leaves-Subsequent treatment: Avoid water on the incision ### 2. Sharing reproduction skills: Comparison of three reproduction methods: Methods| success rate| time-consuming| Technical requirements---|---|---|---Leaf insert|
60-70% |2-3 months| low-branch cutting|
85-95% |1-2 months| are seeded with|
40-50% |4-6 months| Gao ### 3. Judgment and handling of special circumstances of selective defoliation treatment: - -Normal metabolism- -: a small number of old leaves at the bottom wither- -Abnormal defoliation- -: The coping strategy for new and old leaves to fall off at the same time follows the principle of "one look, two checks and three treatments" By systematically analyzing the reasons for the mage's leaf loss and providing targeted solutions, and cooperating with scientific daily maintenance methods, we can effectively prevent and solve the problem of defoliation, allowing the mage to return to a healthy growth state. It is recommended to make observations and records during the maintenance process to form a personalized maintenance plan, so that it can better adapt to different environments and plant conditions.
The above provides you with a detailed explanation of what happens when the mage loses leaves so badly and how to solve it. I hope this article can bring you help in green plant management!
