What to do if lily leaves turn yellow

Six reasons for yellowing

Water yellow

That is, the yellowing is caused by watering too frequently, which mainly manifests itself as yellowing of young leaves, while there is no obvious change in the old leaves; at this time, just control the water in time.

Phellodendron chinense

The opposite of reason one is caused by lack of water. In this case, the old leaves will turn yellow from bottom to top. In severe cases, the whole plant will have yellow leaves until it dies. It is necessary to immediately apply an appropriate amount of water.

Fat Yellow

Similar to the principle of water, yellowing of leaves is caused by excessive fertilizer, which is mainly manifested in the thickening and abnormal gloss of young leaves, and there are bumps on the surface. At this time, reduce fertilization or watering to dilute the fertilizer concentration.

Hungry Yellow

The opposite of reason three, this is caused by too little or too low frequency of fertilization; first, the young leaves and tender stems turn yellow. If timely measures are not taken, the whole plant will eventually have yellow leaves or even die; but when dealing with it, you cannot use too much concentrated fertilizer at one time, which will not only fail to solve the problem, but may also burn the roots.

Iron deficiency yellow leaves

Among the manifestations of yellowing leaves due to "fertilizer deficiency", there is also a special situation which is insufficient iron content, which is a cause of yellow leaves that needs to be paid more attention. It mainly manifests itself on young leaves and has little effect on old leaves. The mesophyll of diseased leaves is yellow and the veins are grid-like. An aqueous solution of ferrous sulfate can be sprayed after being mixed with cake fertilizer: ferrous sulfate: water (7:5:200) to effectively solve this problem.

Pests and diseases

In addition, diseases and insect pests are also important reasons for the yellowing of lily leaves.

To sum up the reasons, it is still due to inadequate control of water and fertilizer. Flower lovers need to make appropriate adjustments during the maintenance process to successfully solve the problem of yellow leaves.
