Yellowing leaves of asparagus fernMain reason: too little watering Generally speaking, the biggest reason for yellowing leaves of asparagus fern is too little watering. Solution: 1. Pruning If you find that the leaves of asparagus fern have turned yellow, there is no other way except to prune it. All yellow leaves should be cut off, don’t feel sorry, this will make asparagus fern grow more vigorously! 2. Watering 1. After pruning the asparagus fern, you must replenish water in time, watering it about once every 2-3 days. Only when there is sufficient water will the asparagus fern not turn yellow. But be careful not to let water accumulate in the basin. If it is tap water, it is best to leave it overnight before using it. When watering, you can add a little white sugar to the water to make the leaves of asparagus fern greener. 2. If the air is too dry, it is best to use a spray bottle to spray water on the leaves of asparagus fern, once in the morning and once in the evening to ensure the air humidity, which can make asparagus fern grow more vigorously. Other reasons: 1. Too much light Asparagus fern likes a cool environment. If it is placed in direct sunlight, it will cause yellow leaves. Therefore, asparagus fern needs to be placed in a bright living room with north-south ventilation to receive scattered light. 2. The smoke is too heavy If you often smoke next to asparagus fern, or place it in a place with heavy smoke, the asparagus fern will inhale more harmful substances over time, which will cause the leaves to turn yellow. Gardenia yellow leavesMain reason: Alkaline soil Gardenia likes acidic soil. The soil in the north is generally alkaline. Gardenia cannot adapt to alkaline soil and will produce yellow leaves. Solution: 1. For the potting soil for gardenia, it is best to choose peat soil, leaf mold and river sand mixed in a ratio of 1:1:1, and then add some ferrous sulfate solution. This mixed soil will become acidic soil suitable for gardenia. 2. In order to ensure the acidity of the soil, you need to water the gardenia soil with 0.2% ferrous sulfate solution or 1:10 alum fertilizer water, about 2-3 times a month. If you don't have ferrous sulfate at home, you can also choose to water it with vinegar at a concentration of 1:10. Other reasons: 1. Improper watering Gardenia likes water, but avoids waterlogging. Too much or too little watering can easily cause yellow leaves. If you water too much, you need to place the flowerpot in a cool and ventilated place, remove the yellow leaves, and move it to another place after the soil is dry; if you water too little, the old leaves will turn yellow first and start to fall off from the bottom to the top, and you should water it thoroughly at this time. 2. Improper lighting Gardenia likes light and needs at least 6 hours of light a day. It is best to place it on a south balcony or south windowsill. However, too strong light will cause yellow spots to appear on the leaves, so you can just put it in a cool place for maintenance; if the light is too weak and causes the leaves to turn yellow, just put the gardenia in the sun to get extra sunlight. Yellow leaves of fortune treeThe main reason: improper watering The money tree likes a warm and humid environment. Too much or too little watering will cause the leaves to turn yellow. If you water the money tree too much, the roots will have difficulty breathing, causing root rot and yellow leaves; if you water the money tree too little, only the surface of the potting soil will be moist, while the soil underneath will still be dry. The roots cannot absorb water, and the leaves will begin to turn yellow from the bottom up. Solution: 1. If you find that the money tree is overwatered, place it in a ventilated place near the window and loosen the soil. If the soil in the pot cannot dry in a short period of time, you can put a layer of sponge or absorbent towel at the bottom of the pot, and replace it with a new one if it gets wet. You can also use a hair dryer or a small electric fan. If the above methods don't work, then you can only change the soil. 2. If you water too little and the surface of the potting soil cracks, you can water it gradually as long as it does not turn completely yellow. Keep the soil surface moist first, then water it a little bit every hour until it is fully irrigated. If you water it thoroughly at one time, the roots will absorb water and swell, affecting their growth and development. Other reasons: 1. Improper lighting The money tree likes sunlight, but cannot be exposed to strong sunlight. Exposure to the sun or long-term shade may cause the leaves to turn yellow. If the leaves of the money tree turn yellow due to excessive exposure to the sun, it proves that the moisture in the leaves has evaporated severely. It is best to place it in a semi-shaded place, remove all the yellow leaves, water it appropriately, and wait until the yellow leaves gradually fall off and new leaves grow. 2. Excessive fertilization If you apply too much fertilizer because you are worried that the money tree lacks fertilizer, the excess fertilizer will burn the roots of the money tree and cause the leaves to turn yellow. At this time, you need to remove the money tree from the pot, clean up the rotten parts, then replace it with new soil and replant it. Alternatively, you can reduce the symptoms of over-fertilization by slowly releasing the fertilizer concentration in the soil through watering. Clivia yellow leavesmain reason: Clivia is drought-resistant but not moisture-resistant. If you water it too much, water will accumulate in the pot, causing the roots of the Clivia to rot and the leaves to turn yellow. Solution: 1. If the roots are not rotten, you can place the Clivia in a cool and ventilated place, stop watering for 3-5 days, and allow the soil in the pot to dry before carrying out subsequent maintenance. If the roots have rotted, remove the Clivia from the pot, cut off the rotten roots, soak it in 0.1% potassium permanganate solution, dry it, and then put it back in the pot. 2. When watering, make sure the soil in the pot is not dry and water thoroughly when watering. The best time for watering is 8-9 in the morning, and the tap water should be dried for 2-3 days before use. For 1-2 year old Clivia, you can water it once every 5-7 days. For Clivia over 3 years old, water it according to the size of the pot and the dryness and wetness of the soil. Other reasons: 1. Excessive fertilization If Clivia is fertilized too much, the concentration is too high, or uncomposted fertilizer is used, yellow leaves will appear. First, stop fertilizing and flush the soil with plenty of water to reduce soil concentration; if root rot has occurred due to excessive fertilization, change the soil immediately, use 0.1% potassium permanganate solution, soak the roots for about 20 minutes, rinse with clean water, cut off the rotten roots after drying, apply wood ash on the wounds, and then replant. 2. Insufficient light If Clivia stays in a shady environment for a long time, the green color of the leaves will gradually fade and the leaves will gradually turn yellow. You can use fluorescent lamps to provide additional light for Clivia; or you can move the Clivia to a place with scattered light and slowly expose it to light. The yellow leaves of the Clivia will recover quickly. Yellow rose leavesThe main reason: improper watering If you find that the leaves of the rose are dark yellow or the edges are dry, this is caused by improper watering. Solution: 1. If the rose is watered too much, you need to remove the plant from the pot and place it in a cool and ventilated place. Wait until the soil is dried and then put it back into the pot. 2. Normally, you can water the rose once every 2-3 days. When you find the soil in the pot turns white or you lift the pot and feel it becomes noticeably lighter, you can water it. Other reasons: 1. Pests and diseases Roses are particularly susceptible to pests and diseases such as red spider mites and scale insects, which generally manifest as noticeable yellowing and wilting of the leaves. If you find that one of the roses in your potted plant has red spider mites, it is best to isolate it quickly, because red plants reproduce very quickly and isolation can effectively prevent cross-infection. Afterwards, you can spray alternately with drugs such as Damanling and Jinmanzhi to prevent the rose from developing drug resistance. 2. Insufficient light Roses like sunlight. If there is insufficient light, the leaves will easily turn yellow. It is best to place the rose on a well-lit south balcony or windowsill, where it receives at least 6 hours of sunlight a day; if conditions permit, it is best to place it outdoors in the courtyard. Chlorophytum yellow leavesThe main reason: improper watering If you water the spider plant too much, the drainage in the pot will be poor, causing water accumulation. The roots of the spider plant will not be able to breathe and the leaves will easily turn yellow. If the spider plant is watered too little, the roots will lack water and the lower leaves will quickly turn yellow. Solution: 1. Chlorophytum is usually watered about once every 5-7 days. In summer, if the temperature is high, it can be watered every 3-5 days. In winter, it should be watered about once every 10 days. Water it thoroughly and ensure that drainage is unobstructed. The best time to water is in the morning or evening. Do not water when it is hot at noon, otherwise the water will evaporate easily and the watering will be in vain. 2. If the air is too dry, you need to use a spray bottle to spray water on the leaves to increase the air humidity and prevent the leaves from drying out. Other reasons: 1. Insufficient light If spider plants are not exposed to the sun, the chlorophyll in their leaves will decrease and the leaves will begin to turn yellow. You can allow the spider plant to receive 4 hours of scattered light every day, or place it under an indoor incandescent lamp to receive scattered light, or place it on the balcony or windowsill. When the sunlight is strong in the summer, the spider plant should be placed in the shade and not exposed to direct sunlight. 2. Malnutrition The nutrients needed by spider plants basically come from the soil. If the potting soil is not replaced for a long time, the nutrients in the soil will be absorbed by the roots of the spider plant, resulting in a lack of nutrition and yellowing leaves. You can apply decomposed bean cake fertilizer or liquid fertilizer every 7-10 days, or you can make your own organic fertilizer using bone residue, eggshells and other household waste; if the nutrients in the potting soil are seriously lacking, then you can only choose to change the soil and pot.
