Can the fortune tree be cultivated in water? What should I do if the leaves turn yellow?

1. Can it be cultivated in water?

The money tree can be cultivated in water, which is also a common cultivation method. Hydroponic cultivation is relatively easier than soil cultivation, and you can also see the growth of its roots at any time. If there is poor growth, you can deal with it immediately. However, hydroponics also has certain disadvantages, that is, the growth rate may be relatively slow, and it will not adapt to environmental changes like soil-grown plants.

2. How to deal with yellow leaves

1. Control water and prune roots: If you water it too much, the accumulated water in the pot will cause the roots of the plant to rot. If the yellow leaves are caused by root rot, you need to temporarily stop watering, remove the plant from the pot, cut off the rotten roots with scissors, and replant it after disinfection.

2. Reasonable exposure to light: If the sunlight is too strong during maintenance, the plant is likely to have yellow leaves. If it is caused by strong sunlight, move it to a place with scattered light and provide ventilation and water. It cannot be placed in the sun in the summer and should be placed in a place with relatively weak light.

3. Replace the potting soil: When growing a money tree, you need to change the pot once a year or every other year, otherwise the soil will become compacted and hinder its growth. You need to change the potting soil for it. Use acidic soil instead of alkaline soil.
