Chlorophytum comosum...The leaves of Chlorophytum comosum always turn yellow when grown in hydroponics! Just 3 steps and turn green instantly!

Yellow leaves of hydroponic spider plant

Why yellow leaves?

1. The light is too strong.

Chlorophytum is a shade-loving flower and cannot withstand strong sunlight. If a flower lover places it on a south balcony, its leaves will easily turn yellow.

Solution:

Chlorophytum can be placed in a place with scattered light indoors, such as the living room, bedroom, etc. Do not expose to excessive sunlight.

2. Not enough fertilizer.

Chlorophytum grown in water cannot absorb more trace elements like those grown in soil, so if the water is not changed frequently, it is easy to cause malnutrition and lead to yellow leaves.

Solution:

Chlorophytum mainly applies nitrogen fertilizer, which can be mixed with urea and water in a ratio of 1:800 and applied in a bottle. Be careful not to apply excessively, otherwise it will easily burn the roots.

3. Failure to trim in time.

If the leaves are too dense, it will accelerate the absorption of nutrients and the leaves will turn yellow. In addition, too many miscellaneous roots will affect the spider plant's absorption of nutrients and will also cause yellow leaves.

Solution:

Cut off the yellow leaves in time. If the spider plant is too dense, you can perform a "beheading" operation to ensure that other leaves can grow normally. Prune off the excess hollow roots so that the roots can fully absorb nutrients.

Hydroponic green radish yellow leaves

Why yellow leaves?

1. Sudden changes in the environment.

Generally, the newly bought green radish will have a process of adapting to the new environment when it arrives home. It is normal if it has yellow leaves during this time. Just cut off the yellow leaves in time.

Solution:

You can place the newly bought green radish in the bedroom or other places in the house with scattered light, and wait for it to adapt to the pot slowly.

2. Malnutrition.

The nutrients in the water are not as much as those in the soil, and insufficient nutrients will also cause the leaves of the green radish to turn yellow.

Solution:

Chlorophytum is also a foliage plant. It is mainly fertilized with nitrogen fertilizer. In addition to urea, we can dilute decomposed soybean water 20 times and add a little in the hydroponic bottle. We can spray water on the leaves at ordinary times.

3. The water quality is poor.

Some flower lovers use tap water at home to grow green ivy without any other treatment. The chlorine in tap water is not good for the growth of green ivy and can easily cause yellow leaves.

Solution:

Change the water frequently. Just add water to the hydroponic bottle until it is about 1/2 full. Change the water every 2 weeks. You don't need to take out the roots when changing the water. Just pour it in along the flat edge.

Yellow leaves of hydroponic copper coin grass

Why yellow leaves?

1. Malnutrition. The pennywort grows very fast, so the nutrients in the water are consumed very quickly. If the leaves turn yellow and fall over, it is likely that it is lacking in nutrients.

Solution:

Half soil and half water farming. This can meet the water and nutrition needs of the pennywort at the same time, killing two birds with one stone. First, fill the bottle to 1/2 full with soil, then plant the pennywort, and then add water, add it slowly, and don't wash the pennywort down. Later, add more water when there is less water.

2. Poor ventilation. Even if it is hydroponically grown, the pennywort still needs a well-ventilated, non-stuffy environment. If the air is too humid and not circulated, it will easily cause the leaves of the pennywort to turn yellow and wilt.

Solution:

Pay attention to the placement. Place the hydroponic pennywort in a sunny and ventilated place, such as a south balcony.

Yellow leaves of hydroponic lucky bamboo

Why yellow leaves?

1. Improper fertilization. Newly purchased lucky bamboo usually has no roots, so its ability to absorb nutrients is poor and its leaves easily turn yellow; however, excessive fertilization can also cause the leaves of lucky bamboo to turn yellow.

Solution:

You can cut the lower end of the newly bought lucky bamboo at a 45° angle to increase the area for nutrient absorption and promote rooting. If you over-fertilize, stop fertilizing immediately, cut off the yellow leaves, change the water, and dilute the fertilizer.

2. Improper lighting. If there is insufficient light, the lucky bamboo cannot carry out sufficient photosynthesis and the leaves will not be green; if the light is too strong, the lucky bamboo cannot withstand the sun and the leaves will turn yellow.

Solution:

Lucky bamboo likes shade and is not too demanding on light, so you can just place it in the living room.

3. Do not change the water. Hydroponic green plants cannot be grown without changing the water all the time. The oxygen and nutrients in the water will decrease after a period of use, and slowly they will not be able to meet the conditions required by the lucky bamboo.

Solution:

When the water quality deteriorates, bacteria will easily grow and affect the breathing of lucky bamboo. Generally, the water should be changed once a month. If there is less water, just add water to the bottle.

Hydroponic Monstera Yellow Leaves

Why yellow leaves?

1. Lack of nutrients. If the hydroponics lasts for a long time and the water lacks nutrients, it will easily cause the leaves of Monstera to turn yellow.

Solution:

Monstera is a relatively large foliage plant. You can always keep some special nutrient solution at home and add one or two drops to the water every month, and the leaves will become green.

2. The temperature is too low. Monstera is not cold-resistant either. If the temperature is too low in winter, the leaves of Monstera will turn yellow due to the freezing.

Solution:

When the temperature is low in winter, you must pay attention to keeping the Monstera warm. It can receive more sunlight during the day, but be careful not to be exposed to cold winds, otherwise it will easily get frostbite.

3. Poor ventilation. Although Monstera likes moisture, if the air does not circulate for a long time, resulting in a humid and stuffy environment, its leaves will easily turn yellow.

Solution:

Place the Monstera in a ventilated place at home and spray water around it frequently to keep the air fresh.
