What causes the edges of plant leaves to burn and how to deal with it

1. Insufficient humidity

Cause: The humidity of the environment in which the plant is grown is too low, or the location where it is kept in winter is too close to a heater or stove, so its leaves can easily become scorched.

Treatment method: To quickly increase the humidity, you can put a basin of water next to the plant, or spray some water. If it is too close to the heater, move away in time. Be careful not to water it too much, as too much water may harm the plant.

2. Too much fertilizer

Reason: Although plants need fertilizer to grow, if the amount is too large or the concentration is too high, it will burn the roots of the plants. When there is a problem with the plant's root system, the leaves will also become burnt and withered.

Treatment method: Water the pot once more to let the fertilizer flow away. You can also take it out of the pot, replace it with new soil, and cut off the burnt roots.

3. Insect Infestation

Reason: If there are pests on the leaves of a plant, they will slowly absorb the nutrients from the leaves, causing the leaves to slowly burn and wither from the edges. Over time, leaves may fall off.

Treatment method: Observe the number of insects on the leaves. If there are only a few, you can scrape them off manually. If there are a large number of insects, you need to spray them as soon as possible.
