How to save asparagus fern from yellowing roots and stems, and what to do if branches and leaves turn yellow

1. How to save the yellowing of roots and stems

The yellowing of its rhizomes is usually caused by over-watering. If the soil in the pot is too moist, it will hinder the root breathing, which will cause root rot due to lack of oxygen and the rhizomes will turn yellow. At this time, the soil should be loosened to drain the accumulated water in the pot and reduce root rot. If the problem is too serious, it is best to remove the plant from the pot, trim the rotten roots, and replant it. During the later maintenance, water appropriately, keep it moist and avoid water accumulation.

2. Solutions to the yellowing of branches and leaves

1. Reduce light: If it is placed in strong light during maintenance, the branches and leaves will easily turn yellow. At this time, you should provide shade, reduce light, and move it to a well-ventilated and cool place, so that it can gradually recover.

2. Appropriate amount of fertilizer: If no fertilizer is applied for a long time during maintenance to supplement nutrients, the plant will have yellow leaves due to lack of oxygen. Fertilization should be applied in a timely and appropriate amount, especially during the peak growing season. Decomposed organic fertilizer liquid should be applied once every half a month. Only with sufficient nutrients can the plant grow more vigorously.

3. Clean the leaves: Its branches and leaves are weak, and if there is thick dust on the leaves, it will also cause yellowing. The leaves should be cleaned as soon as possible and every half a month during maintenance. This will be beneficial to growth and make the plants more beautiful.
