What to do if the leaves of Jiqiuli turn yellow

1. Natural shedding of metabolism

The bottom leaves of the plant turn yellow, but the leaves above are still plump and hard. There is no need to worry about this situation. It is the metabolism of the plant. Just wait until it is completely dry and clean it up.

2. Yellowing caused by excessive water supply

Yellowing leaves are caused by excessive watering. When watering, be careful not to use too much water. Too much water will cause water accumulation, root rot and yellow leaves. Wait until the soil in the pot is completely dry before watering. Follow the principle of not watering unless the soil is dry, and watering thoroughly when watering. This will be beneficial to the growth of the root system and will prevent yellow leaves from occurring. When this happens, you can dig out the Ji Qiuli, remove the rotten roots, soak it in diluted Fungus-Lime, place it in a cool and ventilated place to dry, and then replant it.

3. Yellowing caused by soil compaction

Failure to loosen the soil of the Ji Qiuli plant for a long time has caused the soil to become compacted and impermeable. After watering, the water cannot penetrate into the soil, causing most of the Ji Qiuli plant's roots to be unable to absorb nutrients and water, resulting in the leaves lacking water and nutrients and turning yellow. When this happens, you should loosen the soil for the Ji Qiuli plant with a loosening tool. Loose soil allows air to flow and drain, which is beneficial to the growth of the Ji Qiuli plant.

4. Yellowing of leaves caused by long-term placement indoors and lack of sunlight

If the plant is kept indoors for a long time and does not receive enough sunlight (at least 5 hours of sunlight per day), and yellow leaves appear, it should be moved to a sunny and ventilated place indoors to facilitate the photosynthesis of the plant and reduce the yellow leaves and excessive growth. It is best to keep it outdoors.

5. Insufficient nutrients during the growth period

If the nutrients of the plant are insufficient during the leaf growth period, you can apply some ferrous sulfate to prevent the leaves from turning yellow.

The soil of Ji Qiuli should be loosened appropriately every 1-2 months on average, and fertilizer should be applied during the growing period to prevent malnutrition. I believe that flower lovers will know how to deal with the above situation next time they encounter it.
