What to do if the leaves of the potted rainbow arrowroot turn yellow

1. Water appropriately

If you water too much during maintenance and the soil is too moist, it will affect the normal breathing of the roots and cause the leaves to turn yellow. Or if there is a lack of water, the roots cannot absorb it normally and the leaves will turn yellow. Excess water should be drained in time, and water should be replenished as soon as possible if there is a water shortage. If you find that the soil in the pot turns white during later management, you should add water in time, but be careful not to allow water to accumulate.

2. Scientific fertilization

If no fertilizer is applied for a long time during maintenance, the plant will lack nutrients and cause yellowing. Or the concentration of fertilizer applied is too high, which will burn the roots and turn the leaves yellow. Fertilization should be done regularly, with a thin layer of fertilizer watered in once a week. In addition, it is important to stop applying fertilizer in time during winter to avoid fertilizer damage.

3. Suitable lighting

It likes a semi-shaded environment and should be placed in scattered light during maintenance. Strong light should be blocked or avoided in time. If exposed to strong sunlight, the leaves will easily be sunburned and turn yellow.

4. Temperature control and antifreeze

It is not cold-resistant, and the temperature is low in winter. If the temperature is not controlled in time, the plant will be frostbitten, and the leaves will turn yellow and dry. It should be moved to a warm place in time and the temperature should be controlled between 20 and 25 degrees, and the minimum should be above 15 degrees to avoid frost damage.
