What should I do if my family flowers often have yellow leaves?

Watering

Excessive water

Signs of over-watering are that the young leaves become dark yellow and dull, the old leaves show no obvious changes, the branches are thin and yellow-green, and the new shoots shrink and do not grow. Flowers should be removed from pots and placed in a ventilated and cool place to allow the soil to dry before putting them back into pots.

Too little water

The yellowing caused by lack of water is the withering and drying of the leaf tips or edges, and the old leaves turn yellow and fall off from the bottom to the top, but the growth of new leaves is relatively normal. When watering, make sure to water enough and thoroughly.

illumination

Too much sunlight

Strong direct sunlight shining on some shade-loving flowers, such as spider plants and hostas, can easily cause the tips and edges of their leaves to dry out, and yellow spots to appear on the sun-facing parts of the leaves. Simply move the plant to a shady location.

Insufficient light

If placed in a shaded environment for a long time, the leaves will not get enough sunlight and cannot form chlorophyll, causing the entire plant to turn yellow and then fall off. Move the potted plant to a sunny environment to provide additional light.

Fertilization

Overfertilization

Yellowing of flowers caused by excessive fertilization or excessive concentration of fertilizer is manifested by dry brown color on the tips of new leaves. Generally, the leaf surface is thick and dull, and has bumps and is not stretched, and the old leaves turn yellow and fall off. Stop fertilizing immediately, and in serious cases, use a large amount of washing to flush out some of the fertilizer.

Yellowing due to lack of fertilizer

The color of young leaves becomes lighter, becoming yellow or light green, while the old leaves are relatively normal or gradually turn from green to yellow, which indicates a lack of fertilizer. Check the soil in the pot. If it is dry, change the soil. Apply thin fertilizer frequently and water with alum water from time to time.
