What to do if the leaves of Zi Chi Nian Hua turn yellow

Reason 1: Insufficient light

As for the habits of Zi Chi Nian Hua, Zi Chi Nian Hua likes places with plenty of sunshine and relatively warmth. Therefore, the yellowing of the leaves of the Zi Chi Nian Hua is most likely caused by lack of light and low temperature. In this case, avoid placing the plant in a cool or semi-shaded place for a long time, and move it to a place with sufficient light. But be careful not to place it under strong light all the time, especially in the hot summer, it must be ventilated and shaded.

Reason 2: Too much or too little watering

If the leaves of the Zi Chi Nian Hua plant turn yellow, you can use a bamboo stick to test whether the soil in the pot is dry or wet to check whether the plant is lacking water. If the soil in the pot is dry, it is because the plant is lacking water. At this time, you need to increase the amount of watering appropriately and spray more water to meet the plant's water needs. If the soil in the pot is too moist, it is because of too much watering. At this time, you need to reduce the amount of watering appropriately and loosen the soil to avoid waterlogging and root rot, which will damage the vitality of the entire plant. In addition, you must pay attention to ventilation and water only when the soil is completely dry, especially in summer, you must avoid rain and water accumulation.

Reason 3: Iron deficiency in the soil

This reason is not common, but it can be considered if the light and water are appropriate. In this case, you can bury some scrap iron in the flowerpot, or apply some high-iron fertilizer to increase the iron content of the potting soil and supplement the nutrients needed by the plant to prevent the symptoms of yellowing leaves.

We need to understand the reasons why the leaves of the Zi Chi Nian Hua turn yellow and take appropriate measures, otherwise the situation may become worse.
