The cause and solution of the yellowing of the leaves of Boston fern

Boston fern is a temperature-loving plant that grows best in warm climates. Boston fern is now very popular in the market, and many people like to buy it and raise it at home. In the process of breeding, it is possible that the leaves turn yellow because of the problem of breeding skills, so how should we deal with it?

The reason for the yellowing of Boston fern leaves

1. When raising Boston fern, if the soil used can not meet the growth needs of Boston fern, it will cause it to grow badly, and the leaves will turn yellow and lose leaves.

2. When raising Boston ferns, although sufficient light is needed, be careful not to have strong direct sunlight, otherwise it will easily cause the leaves of Boston ferns to scorch and turn yellow.

3. When raising Boston ferns, if the water is underwatered or the air is too dry, the Boston ferns will turn yellow or appear scorched edges.

4. Improper fertilization mainly refers to excessive fertilization or pollution of leaves during fertilization, which will lead to the withering and yellowing of Boston fern leaves.

5. If Boston ferns are not pruned in time during maintenance, the branches and leaves may be cluttered and crowded, and too dense branches and leaves are not conducive to the growth of Boston ferns.

The solution to the yellowing of Boston fern leaves

1. When cultivating Boston ferns in pots, we can use a mixture of garden soil, river sand and rotten leaf soil.

2. When raising Boston ferns, if there is strong sunshine outside, you need timely shade. When farming indoors, the Boston fern can be maintained on the east or north windowsill.

3. When raising Boston ferns, watering must be adequate, and when the growth is exuberant, it is necessary to spray water on the leaves every day.

4. When raising Boston ferns, watering must be adequate, and when the growth is exuberant, it is necessary to spray water on the leaves every day.

5. Pruning is very important in daily maintenance. If withered leaves are found, they should be cut off in time, which is also conducive to the germination of new leaves, and the old leaves should be properly pruned every autumn to avoid too many branches and leaves, weakening their growth and yellowing the leaves.

The method of split-plant propagation of Boston fern

1. The ramet propagation of Boston fern can be carried out in spring, summer and autumn, and the ramet in early spring from April to May can be combined with turning the basin.

2. In early summer, the stolon growing on the plant will grow rapidly and grow small plants with roots. In summer, the plants with vigorous growth will be selected, and then the small plants with roots mentioned above will be cut off and planted separately.

3. When combining with turning the pot to split the plant, we should first deduct the plant upside down from the flowerpot, shake off the old soil, and then cut it into several separate planting, and then put it in the shade, which will be able to maintain normally in about a week.

4. When potted, the soil can choose the mixed culture soil of rotten leaf soil, river sand and garden soil, and it would be better to use water moss as the medium.

Prevention and control of diseases and insect pests of Boston fern

1. Brown spot. 50% carbendazim 1000-fold solution, 50% methyl topiramate 1000-fold solution, 200-fold Bordeaux solution and other pesticides can be used for control. Too much watering or too much humidity is also prone to brown spot. At the initial stage of the disease, 70% tophan wettable powder 800-1000 times liquid and other agents can be sprayed for prevention and treatment.

2. Nematode disease. The population density of root-knot nematodes could be significantly reduced by covering fresh loess with insecticides such as 10% gram line phosphorus, gram line Dan or 25% C line phosphorus and irrigation with a small amount of water. Some plants were treated with hot water to control nematodes of nest fern. Soak the plants in 43 ℃ hot water for 10 minutes and 15 minutes before planting.

The reason for the yellowing of Boston fern leaves is generally caused by watering, fertilization, light, pruning and so on, so it is necessary to find out the cause and then solve the problem from the root. If you want Boston fern to grow well, it is necessary to propagate separately. The specific methods are described in detail above. I hope it will be helpful to you.
