What to do if the leaves of lucky bamboo turn yellow in winter

1. Increase the temperature

Reason: If the temperature is low in winter, the leaves of lucky bamboo will be frozen and turn yellow, affecting its appearance.

Solution: Take measures to keep warm in winter to avoid frostbite. When the temperature drops in winter, move the plant indoors for maintenance in time.

2. Reduce water changes

Reason: When the temperature is too low, the root system's ability to absorb water is greatly reduced. If the water is changed frequently, the leaves will turn yellow and wither.

Solution: You need to reduce the frequency of water changes. Do not change the water too often. After some of the water evaporates, you need to add water in time. The added water needs to be prepared in advance and left to dry for at least a day.

3. Reduce fertilization

Reason: The overall growth rate slows down in winter and the demand for fertilizer also decreases. If too much fertilizer is applied, it will cause fertilizer damage, leading to root rot and causing yellowing of leaves.

Solution: You can reduce fertilization in winter, or stop fertilizing directly. If there are signs of root rot, you need to deal with it in time, cut off the rotten roots, and replace with new water.

4. Avoid strong light

Reason: Although the sunlight is relatively weak in winter, long-term exposure to strong sunlight will cause the leaves to turn yellow.

Solution: Place the lucky bamboo in a brightly lit area, exposed to soft diffuse light, and not directly facing strong light.
