What to do if lavender leaves turn yellow

1. Clear the stagnant water

Reason: Lavender needs sufficient water during its growth period, but if the amount of water is not well controlled, the accumulated water will make it difficult for the roots of the plant to breathe, which will cause root rot and cause the leaves to turn yellow.

Solution: Remove excess water from the flowerpot, then place it in a well-ventilated and sunny place to allow the water in the soil to evaporate as soon as possible. You can also replace the plant with new nutrient soil and replant it.

2. Improve ventilation

Reason: If lavender is kept in a relatively closed, unventilated environment for a long time, the plant will grow poorly and the leaves will turn yellow and wilt.

Solution: Move the plant to a place with good air circulation, such as near windows, balconies, etc. During the maintenance period, you should open the windows more often to prevent the breeding environment from being too dark.

3. Reduce fertilization

Reason: Many flower lovers fail to control the amount of fertilizer when fertilizing. If the amount of fertilizer is always too much, the roots of the plant will be burned and the leaves will turn yellow.

Solution: At this time, you need to increase the amount of watering to flush out the remaining fertilizer in the potting soil. The best way is to dig the plant out of the pot, trim the roots and replant it in new soil.
