Bowl lotus is a kind of flower that many people like to grow. It is small and delicate, and its flowers are particularly beautiful. When it blooms, it has a very fresh smell. What happens if the leaves of the water lily turn yellow? Let’s learn more about it below. 1. Insufficient light Bowl lotus is a plant that loves light, so the more light it gets in summer, the better it grows. If there is insufficient light, the leaves will turn yellow. If there is sufficient sunlight in the summer, try to provide it with as much light as possible right after autumn begins, otherwise the length of light exposure time can easily cause yellow leaves. 2. Lack of nutrients During the peak growth season of bowl lotus, it demands more nutrients. If nutrients are not replenished in time, yellow leaves will appear due to lack of nutrients. At this time, you need to add some organic fertilizer rich in beneficial bacteria and trace elements. 3. Excessive fertilization Bowl lotus likes fertilizer, so frequent fertilization will also cause yellow leaves. Improper fertilization will cause water pollution, which will also cause yellow leaves. At this time, you need to change the water to dilute the excess nutrients in the water. 4. Improper water level Bowl lotus grows in water. The depth of the water level will affect the metabolism of the bowl lotus. If the water level is too deep during the seedling stage, leaves will easily rot. If the water level is too shallow, it will not only affect the appearance, but also cause yellow leaves. The best way to grow water lilies is to find a flowerpot with water holes, place it in a pot filled with water, and put something in the pot to raise the water level. 5. Replacement issues The yellowing leaves of the water lily may be a problem of replacement of old and new leaves. Because the growing new leaves consume a lot of nutrients, the plant can only sacrifice the old leaves in order to allow the new leaves to grow better, which leads to yellowing leaves. So there is no need to worry too much at this time, just cut off the yellow leaves. 6. The water becomes turbid The biggest reason why the water quality of bowl lotus becomes turbid is that a large amount of algae breeds in the water, which can also cause yellow leaves. At this time, you can use chemical agents to remove algae. This type of chemical agent is more commonly used in fish tanks and grass tanks, and the effect is also relatively good. You can directly search for fish tank algaecides on the Internet to choose a suitable one. After buying it, just use it according to the instructions. Generally, the water quality will become clear in 5-7 days. That’s it |
