What to do if the leaves of lily bamboo turn yellow

1. Lack of light

If the lily bamboo is kept in a shaded environment for a long time without any light during the cultivation process, the leaves will not get enough sunlight, and will not be able to carry out photosynthesis and form chlorophyll, so the leaves of the lily bamboo will turn yellow.

Prevention and treatment methods

In an environment where there is a lack of light, the leaves of lily bamboo will turn yellow. Therefore, the best and most direct way is to directly supplement the light for the lily bamboo. Therefore, the lily bamboo should be gradually moved from a shady place to a well-lit place for maintenance, and it must be ensured that it sees light every day.

2. Overwatering

During the cultivation process, if the lily bamboo is watered too much, it will cause root rot, which will cause the young leaves of the lily bamboo to become dark yellow and dull.

Old leaves will not be affected, but severe cases will cause the branches to become thin and yellow-green, and the new shoots to shrink and not grow.

Prevention and treatment methods

This situation is caused by overwatering, so you can remove the lily bamboo from the pot and place it in a ventilated and cool place to dry the soil, and then put it back into the pot;

Also, pay attention to reducing watering. You can water the pot when you see the soil is dry. Do not water if it is not dry. Be sure not to allow water to accumulate.

3. Too little fertilizer

If lily bamboo is fertilized too little, the color of its young leaves will fade and gradually turn yellow, while its old leaves will be relatively normal or gradually turn from green to yellow.

Prevention and treatment methods

When the leaves of lily bamboo turn yellow due to excessive fertilization, you can check whether the soil in the pot is dry and hard. If so, change the soil as soon as possible, apply thin fertilizer frequently and water with alum water from time to time. Note that the fertilizer applied should be nitrogen-based.

Well, I have told you the above reasons and treatment methods.
