What to do if the leaves of the swallowtail palm turn yellow

1. Reduce watering:

Reason: If you usually water a lot, water will easily accumulate in the pot, which will damage the roots and make it unable to absorb nutrients, so the leaves will turn yellow due to lack of nutrients.

Solution: At this time, you can loosen the soil appropriately and place it in a well-ventilated location. When watering, you should control the amount and not water too much at one time.

2. Reduce sunlight:

Reason: The bird's nest plant does not need long-term sunlight. If it is exposed to sunlight all day, the nutrients it contains will be lost and the leaves will turn yellow.

Solution: At this time, you can place it in a sunny and ventilated place indoors, and place it outdoors three days a week. It only needs to be exposed to the sun in the morning and evening every day.

3. Maintain ventilation:

Reason: If it is kept in a shaded and unventilated environment for a long time, its leaves will turn yellow and even fall off.

Solution: Place it in a well-ventilated location, which is not only conducive to its growth, but also can reduce the chance of it getting diseases and pests.

4. Loosen the soil:

Reason: The heavy sticky potting soil has poor drainage and air ventilation properties, and the accumulated water cannot be discharged, which will cause the leaves to turn yellow.

Solution: Proper loosening of the soil can make the potting soil drain better, the air permeability will also become better, and the phenomenon of yellow leaves will be greatly improved.
