What to do if the leaves of the pennywort turn yellow and wilt, or fall off

1. Treatment methods

1. Drainage: If you water the plant too much during maintenance, water will accumulate in the pot. It will prevent the roots of the plant from breathing normally and from transporting water and nutrients to the leaves, causing them to turn yellow. The flower pot should be tilted to allow the accumulated water to drain out, and then placed in a well-ventilated place. Or you can poke a few holes in the soil to speed up water evaporation.

2. Root pruning: If you water too much or use too concentrated fertilizer, its roots will rot. It needs to be removed in time, the rotten roots cut off, and new soil replaced and replanted. Finally, place the potted plant in a semi-shaded place and wait for it to recover.

3. See light: If the growing environment is too shady, the leaves will turn yellow due to insufficient light. It is recommended to move the potted plants to a ventilated and well-lit place such as a balcony as soon as possible so that they can see as much sunlight as possible. However, pay attention to shading in the summer.

2. How to deal with fallen leaves

Before taking any action, you need to know the reason for the leaf falling, find out the causing factors, and take corresponding measures. If it is caused by natural metabolism, it needs to be treated by controlling water appropriately. If the problem is caused by lack of water, fertilizer or poor ventilation, you need to water it less, change the soil appropriately, and let it grow in a ventilated place, and the problem will improve.
