How to remedy the leaf fall of the fortune tree

1. Reduce the amount of water

If you water too much during maintenance, water will easily accumulate in the soil, and the roots will not be able to breathe normally and will rot, resulting in leaf fall. The rotten roots should be dealt with and the potting soil should be dried before re-maintaining. In the later stage, pay attention to reducing the frequency and amount of water, and resume normal management when new leaves grow.

2. Dilute Fertilizer

The money tree likes fertilizer, but if too much fertilizer is applied during management, it will burn the roots and cause leaves to fall. At this time, stop fertilizing immediately and pour clean water into the soil to dilute the fertilizer and let it flow out with the water. Then loosen the soil and place it under light for half a month, and it will basically recover. In the later stage, pay attention to applying fertilizer in small amounts and multiple times to avoid fertilizer damage.

3. Timely shade

It likes light and can grow more vigorously in an environment with sufficient light. But be aware that the light in summer is too strong and you should block or avoid it in time. Strong light can cause leaves to fall. In addition, you need to water more and increase the humidity, and it will recover soon.

4. Pest and disease control

If it is not managed properly during maintenance, it is easy to be infected with diseases. For example, leaf spot disease, red spider mites, etc. can also cause leaves to fall. Diseased branches and leaves should be cut off and burned in time. Pay attention to more ventilation and spray appropriate drugs for prevention and control.
