What to do if the leaves of green apple arrowroot droop

1. Soil compaction

Reason: Water frequently during maintenance to keep the soil moist. If there is no watering for a long time, the soil will become hardened due to lack of water, and its roots will not be able to absorb water and will droop.

Solution: Water in a timely and appropriate manner, and observe whether water can seep out from the bottom of the flowerpot. If it can seep out, it means that the compaction is not serious. It will recover later as long as you pay attention to watering. If no water seeps out, it means that the compaction is very serious and it is recommended to change the pot and replant.

2. Environmental Issues

Reason: If it is a newly potted plant, its leaves will droop due to environmental discomfort.

Solution: If the plant is not adapted to the environment, don’t worry too much. Just provide a suitable environment based on its growth habits and it will recover soon.

3. Root rot

Reason: If you water too much during maintenance, the roots will lack oxygen, which will lead to root rot. In the early stage of root rot, the leaves will turn yellow and droop. If the disease is not treated for too long, the entire plant may die.

Solution: If the roots are rotten, remove them from the pot immediately and cut off all the rotten parts. Then replace the potting soil with new one and repot and maintain the plant. In the early stage, you should pay attention to placing it in the astigmatism area first, and then manage it normally after it adapts.

4. Pest Infestation

Reason: If pests and diseases are caused during maintenance, such as red spider mites, scale insects or yellowing, the plants will sag or droop.

Solution: If it is caused by pests and diseases, you must spray the corresponding medicine in time to prevent and control it, otherwise it will continue to deteriorate and seriously affect its growth.
