Causes of yellowingNo potting for a long timeAlthough the Dracaena is a long-lived tree with strong vitality, it will feel uncomfortable if you treat it as an adopted child for a long time! If the plant is not repotted for a long time, the roots will not have enough space to grow, the ability to absorb nutrients will decrease, the condition of the plant will deteriorate, and it will be natural for the leaves to turn yellow. The roots were damaged when I repotted them.Many times, some damage is unavoidable. Who can guarantee that I can dig out a whole potato with a hoe? The same goes for repotting. I always try my best to be careful, but it is of no use and the root system will still be damaged. After the root system is damaged, the dragon blood tree in the pot cannot be maintained normally and needs to be allowed to grow slowly. During the process of acclimatization, the leaves will turn yellow or even fall off. Improper water and fertilizer managementIf the new leaves of the Dracaena turn yellow, it means there is not enough water. If the old leaves turn yellow, it means there is not enough nutrients. Dry air can also cause the leaves to lack water and turn yellow. Pests and diseasesLarge areas of leaf fall may be due to root rot or insect infestation. At this time, you should check the condition of the root system and then check whether there are insect eggs on the leaves. What to do if it turns yellowRepottingThe Dracaena can be repotted every 2-3 years. Try to choose a slightly larger pot to give it enough space for growth. If it is constrained, the plant will never thrive. When repotting, you should not try your best to avoid damaging the roots, but do your best to avoid damaging the roots. If you have done your duty and it is still damaged, just let it grow on its own. It's okay, it's very strong! Watering and fertilizing go hand in handExcept for winter, the dragon blood tree does not need to be fertilized, but it can be fertilized lightly but frequently in spring, summer and autumn. Keep the soil in the pot moist. If necessary, spray water on the leaves and spray above the plant to increase the air humidity. The dragon blood tree that is kept in a cool place for a long time can also be exposed to the sun for a while to carry out photosynthesis and smell the scent of the sun. The emergence of pests and diseases cannot be toleratedWhen pests and diseases occur, it is necessary to check and spray pesticides in time, and save those leaves that have not turned yellow in time. |
