What to do if the leaves of the new jade ornament are wrinkled

1. The reason why the new jade leaves have these wrinkles

1. Reasons for just changing the pot

Succulent plants need to be repotted frequently because if they grow in a pot for too long, the roots will easily become necrotic and rotten, which is very detrimental to their growth. Therefore, root pruning and repotting are effective ways to promote their growth. When repotting, it cannot absorb nutrients from the outside, so it will easily absorb more nutrients from the leaves, causing the leaves to shrink a little.

2. There is a problem with the root of the new jade ornament

Most leaf shrinkage problems may be caused by some damage to the roots. Because no matter what kind of plant it is, the roots are considered the blood vessels that provide the plant with nutrients, so if there is a problem with the roots, it will be reflected in a certain part of the plant, such as the stems, leaves, fruits, etc. Therefore, when there is a problem with the roots of the new jade plant, it will affect the growth and development of the entire plant, and the first thing that may be reflected is the leaves. The leaves will become wrinkled due to insufficient nutrition.

3. Lack of water in the basin

Although succulent plants cannot be given water frequently, they cannot lack water, otherwise the leaves of the new jade plant will become wrinkled, and the roots will sometimes be drier and look less thick.

2. Countermeasures

1. How to deal with repotting

If the plant has just been repotted, you can let it rest for two more days to adapt to the new environment. If you provide it with enough water, soil and fertilizer, it will gradually adapt to the new growing environment and the wrinkles on its leaves will gradually disappear.

2. Root treatment methods

If it is determined that there is a problem with the roots, countermeasures should be taken in time to remove the damaged roots, increase the supply of fertilizer, ensure adequate nutrition, and slowly the new jade plant will adjust itself to the best state.

3. How to deal with water shortage

You can touch the soil in the pot to determine whether it is a problem of lack of water. If this is really the reason, you need to water it in time, and not too much. In the future care process, you must always observe it and do not let it lack water again, causing damage.
