I have grown asparagus fern for 10 years and its height has increased by 2 stories, all because of adding this!

If you take some tonic medicine, your asparagus fern will turn into a big pine tree in one month!

Nowadays, more and more friends like to take Chinese medicine to regulate their bodies. However, don’t waste the residue after taking the medicine. Use it to grow asparagus fern, and the asparagus fern will grow taller than a person!

1. Collect the leftover Chinese medicine residue, spread it out in the sun, and dry it for 1-2 days.

2. Prepare a compost bucket or just use a large flower pot. First put a layer of garden soil at the bottom of the pot, then put a layer of Chinese medicine residue, and stack them up in order.

3. Cover the last layer with about 3-5cm of garden soil, water it thoroughly, seal it with plastic film, and place it in a sunny place to ferment. Open it and let it breathe about every 3-5 days.

4. After two months, the soil will basically be fermented. If you mix it directly into the soil for growing asparagus fern, it can continuously provide the asparagus fern with the nutrients it needs for growth!

If you do this when your asparagus fern turns yellow, it will immediately become green!

Probably the most common problem encountered when caring for asparagus fern is that the leaves turn yellow. Once the leaves turn yellow, the asparagus fern no longer looks good. But don’t worry, Huahua will teach you her exclusive secret recipe, which guarantees that the leaves will never turn yellow again!

1. Excessive watering leads to yellowing

Asparagus fern prefers a relatively humid environment, but this does not mean that it can be watered in large quantities. If you water too much and cause water to accumulate in the pot, the roots of asparagus fern will not be able to breathe properly and the leaves will inevitably turn yellow.

Solution: Cut off the yellow leaves, reduce the amount of watering, and place the asparagus fern in a cool and ventilated place.

2. Too little water causes yellowing

Some friends often forget to water asparagus fern. After a long time, the asparagus fern can no longer bear it and begins to turn yellow slowly.

Solution: Water thoroughly and place the asparagus fern in a well-ventilated place. Pay attention to spraying water more often to ensure the humidity of the environment.

3. Too little light causes yellowing

When flower lovers see this, they will ask, doesn’t asparagus fern dislike light? Although asparagus fern likes cool places, all things need light to grow, and an overly dark environment is not suitable for the healthy growth of asparagus fern.

Solution: Place the asparagus fern in an environment with sufficient diffuse light. If you want to keep the asparagus fern in an environment with poor lighting for a long time, you need to move it to a brightly lit place every few days to expose it to the sun.

4. Too much light causes yellowing

Autumn is here, and many friends have started to move their asparagus fern outside. Although autumn has arrived, the sunlight is still quite strong. If it is exposed to the sun for two consecutive days, it would be strange if the asparagus fern does not turn yellow!

Solution: Move the asparagus fern back into a bright, well-ventilated place indoors, and cut off the yellow leaves.

5. Excessive fertilization leads to yellowing

Many friends envy other people’s asparagus ferns that grow tall and strong, so they keep feeding their own asparagus ferns with a lot of food. However, the thin asparagus ferns not only cannot absorb the food, but also suffer from fertilizer damage and yellow leaves.

Solution: If yellowing occurs in the early stage, flush with plenty of water to reduce the concentration of fertilizer in the potting soil. If flushing and irrigation has no effect, the roots may be damaged and the plant needs to be trimmed and repotted.

If your asparagus fern has root rot, do this to revive it!

1. Cut off all the yellow leaves and stems of asparagus fern.

2. After pruning, remove the asparagus fern from the pot and place it in clean water to rinse off all the dirt on the roots.

3. Use a pair of sterilized scissors to cut off all the rotten parts of the asparagus fern's roots, and then place the asparagus fern in a ventilated place to dry.

4. The soil for replanting asparagus fern can be prepared by mixing leaf mold and coarse sand in a ratio of 7:3. Before putting the soil into the flowerpot, place a gauze at the water outlet to prevent the outlet from being blocked by watering later.

5. Put the dried asparagus fern back into the pot and place it in a cool and well-ventilated place for maintenance. Do not water it too much, just keep the soil slightly moist.

6. After a period of time, asparagus fern will sprout new buds and regain vitality!
