As a common household ornamental plant, the money tree is loved by many people for its unique leaves and auspicious name. It is mainly used for ornamental leaves and has high ornamental value. However, yellowing of the leaves of the money tree is a common problem during home maintenance. So what should we do if the leaves of the money tree turn yellow? 1. Lighting adjustment The yellowing leaf problem of the money tree is often related to light intensity. When there is a lack of light, the leaves will droop to increase the area exposed to light; when the light is too strong, the leaves may curl and turn yellow, reducing the area exposed to light. Therefore, the light should be adjusted according to the condition of the leaves to find the most suitable growth environment for the money tree. 2. Watering time The money tree has a strong ability to tolerate drought, but too much water can cause root rot and cause yellow leaves. Likewise, prolonged drought can cause leaves to wilt. By observing the hardness of the trunk of the money tree, you can determine whether it needs watering. When the trunk begins to soften slightly, it is a sign that watering is needed. 3. Increase air humidity Although the money tree does not like the soil to be too wet, it prefers a humid air environment. In a well-ventilated and dry environment, water mist should be sprayed around the money tree and on its leaves regularly. Spraying with beer water once a month can make the leaves thicker and shiny. 4. Reasonable fertilization Since the money tree grows slowly, fertilization does not need to be too frequent. Excessive fertilization may cause root burns and cause yellow leaves. At the same time, insufficient fertilization will affect the growth of new leaves. The frequency of fertilization should be adjusted according to the growth of leaves, and compound fertilizers mainly composed of nitrogen should be selected. 5. Supplement iron Iron is an important element for the synthesis of chlorophyll. Iron deficiency will lead to the inhibition of chlorophyll synthesis, causing the leaves to become lighter and turn yellow. In order to keep the leaves of the money tree green, water it with an appropriate amount of ferrous sulfate solution every month to supplement the iron element. In short, the yellowing of money tree leaves may be caused by a variety of reasons, including light, water, fertilizer, diseases and pests, etc. To solve this problem, you need to carefully observe the growth environment and maintenance conditions of the money tree, find out the specific reasons that cause the leaves to turn yellow, and take appropriate measures to make adjustments.
