Symptoms of nitrogen deficiency in plants, what to do

1. Symptoms of nitrogen deficiency

1. Slow growth: When plants lack nitrogen, their overall growth will be restricted, the plants will become very short, or even stop growing. The stems and leaves do not show signs of vigorous growth and look very thin and lifeless. The stems grow very thin and short, with very few branches and tillers, and sometimes they age prematurely.

2. Leaves lose their green color: The overall color will lose its green color, and parts of the leaves will begin to turn yellow and gradually spread backwards. Its old leaves will also turn yellow-green, and even the leaves at the lower ends will wither. In addition, the withered and yellow leaves will fall off prematurely.

2. Treatment methods

If the plants you grow do show symptoms of nitrogen deficiency, you must deal with them as soon as possible and apply some nitrogen fertilizer to them immediately, such as urea and animal manure fertilizer. It should be noted that you should not apply too much fertilizer at once, as the plants will not be able to absorb it and will suffer fertilizer damage. You should supplement appropriately according to the situation.
