What to do if the leaves of the lucky bamboo cage turn yellow

1. Water

This kind of woven ornamental plant does not have much water in its roots and is also sensitive to water. It cannot tolerate being too dry or too wet. Observe the yellowing areas carefully. If the young leaves are yellowing and the old leaves are normal, it is water yellowing and the amount of watering should be reduced appropriately until the water dries up. On the contrary, if the young leaves are normal and the old leaves are yellowing, it is drought yellowing and the amount of watering can be increased appropriately.

2. Lighting

If the yellowing of the leaves is in the form of yellow spots on the side exposed to light, it can be considered as a burn caused by excessive light. You need to reduce the exposure time and avoid strong light. If the entire leaf turns yellow and falls off, think about whether it has not been exposed to the sun for a long time? Without light to synthesize chlorophyll, yellowing will occur. At this time, the plant should be moved to a place with light to promote chlorophyll synthesis and hope for the plant to recover.

3. Fertilizer

The nutritional status of the soil determines the overall condition of the plant, and the impact of waste concentration on the lucky bamboo cage can also be seen from the leaves. If you observe that the young leaves are thick and lack gloss on the surface, while the old leaves are yellowing and falling off, it means there is too much fertilizer. This can be improved by cleaning and changing the soil. If you find that the color of the young leaves is not enough or is gradually becoming lighter, and the old leaves are slowly turning yellow, it means that the fertilizer is insufficient and you need to add fertilizer appropriately.

In general, the leaves reflect the impact of various factors such as climate on plants. Each person's breeding methods and environment are different, and the plant's own emergency response is also different, but the lucky bamboo cage prefers higher temperatures. If the temperature is below 7°C, it must be kept warm artificially to help it survive the winter.
