What to do if the leaves of Mirabilis jalapa wilt

1. Moisture problem

Cause: Regarding moisture, there are two possible reasons that can cause leaves to wilt. The first is that there is too little water. This phenomenon occurs due to lack of water. The second is the exact opposite situation, which is watering too much, causing root rot, which in turn harms the leaves of the plant.

Measures: If it is about the blades, then we need to distinguish the situation and then take corresponding measures. First check the moisture level of the soil in the pot. If there is little water and the soil is dry, you need to add some water appropriately or pour some water on the leaves. If the soil in the pot is very wet, you have to control watering, or pay attention when choosing the flower soil and choose those with good drainage.

2. Light intensity problem

Reason: If the light is too strong, it may cause the leaves to wilt, and the stronger the light, the more serious the symptoms may be. We can observe the condition of the plant. If the situation improves at night, then this may be the reason.

Measures: If this is the reason, then we have to adjust the light exposure time of the plants. Appropriately reduce the time it is exposed to sunlight. In addition, appropriate shading measures need to be taken at noon to prevent sunburn.

3. Pest problems

Reason: Some pests will bite the roots of the plants, thus threatening the leaves of the plants, which is also a possible reason.

Measures: In this case, it is best to choose to spray appropriate pesticides for prevention and control.
