What to do if the lotus stalks turn yellow

1. Replace the soil

Reason: If the soil used for soil cultivation has poor air permeability, the roots will not be able to breathe smoothly for a long time, which will lead to rot and the leaves will turn yellow.

Solution: Prepare loose, breathable and fertile soil. It is best to lay broken tiles on the bottom before potting to improve air permeability, so that such problems will not occur later.

2. Change water in time

Reason: If the water of hydroponics is not changed for a long time, it is easy for bacteria to exist in it, which will cause root rot and yellowing of leaves and bamboo stalks.

Solution: Change the water immediately when you find the water is turbid. When changing the water, be sure to cut off the rotten roots and disinfect it.

3. Reduce light

Reason: Although it is a light-loving plant, if it is exposed to strong light or too strong light for a long time, it will be sunburned, causing the bamboo stems and leaves to turn yellow and wither.

Solution: If the light is too strong during maintenance, block it in time and do not leave it exposed to the sun. It is best to place it in a place with soft light so that it can grow stronger.

4. Prevention and control of pests and diseases

Reason: Improper management during maintenance can easily lead to the invasion of pests and diseases, especially root rot and leaf spot, which can directly cause the leaves and bamboo poles to turn yellow and dry.

Solution: If it is attacked by pests and diseases, cut off the diseased parts in time and spray pesticides for prevention and control.
