What if the leaves of white palm droop? How to maintain the four green seasons?

White palm is loved by new consumers because of its simple maintenance and elegant style. In addition to it is called white palm, it can also be called white taro, it is a very good ornamental plant. In the daily maintenance process of white palm, what is the cause of leaf sagging? What should I do? How to maintain the leaves in order to be green all the year round?

First, white palm leaves drooping how to do?

1. Drying

If the environment is dry and the humidity is not enough, the wet white palm leaves are also easy to droop. In winter, the maintenance environment of many flower friends has low humidity and poor ventilation, and the leaves are prone to sagging. In this case, more water should be sprayed to increase humidity.

2. Overwatering

Watering too wet caused by the phenomenon of soft and sagging leaves, usually watering should not be too wet, too wet soil is easy to cause root rot and leaf sagging.

3. Growth environment

Although the growth temperature of white palm is between 5-30 ℃, low temperature still has a certain effect on its growth, and humidity is also an important factor. Leaf sagging can easily occur in dry and cold winter conditions.

4. Improper retarding of seedlings

Most white palms in the family are purchased directly from the flower market. You know, most of the flowers in the flower market grow in greenhouses. Moving to the family will change the environment, if the plant is not given a full adaptation process, directly placed in the sun for normal maintenance, it is easy to show wilting state.

5. Poor ventilation

Winter indoor dry, poor ventilation, leaf loss of water will appear leaf sagging. In addition, if the potted plant is placed in a place with low temperature and small space, the leaves are also easy to turn yellow.

6. Soil

The white palm has not changed the basin to loosen the soil for a long time, the soil plate is hard and impervious, and the irrigated water can not penetrate into the soil layer, resulting in most of the roots unable to absorb water and nutrients, and the symptoms of sagging and softening of yellow leaves occur when they lose water and lose nutrients.

7. Sun wilting

When it is hot in summer, do not put it in direct light, otherwise it is easy to wilt and droop because of the strong light. It is generally maintained in a scattered light environment with bright light and good ventilation.

Second, how does the white palm keep the four seasons green?

1. Soil environment

White palm grows best in fertile, loose, breathable and well-drained soil. The soil which is easy to harden and sticky is not suitable for raising white palm. We can configure the white palm farming soil by ourselves, and when we prepare it, we can use garden soil + rotten leaf soil + perlite or river sand according to 2:2:1. This kind of soil has good nutrient conditions and air permeability and drainage performance.

2. Temperature and humidity

White palm is more resistant to high temperature, and a warm environment can promote its growth faster and better. The growth of white palm needs to maintain good air humidity, too dry can easily lead to leaf dysplasia, slow flowering and so on. However, the environment with too much water can also easily lead to the occurrence of diseases and insect pests such as decay. Therefore, some dry seasons need spray moisturizing, rainy and wet seasons should avoid more watering.

3. Lighting conditions

The growth of all things depends on the sun, and the growth of white palm is also inseparable from light, and light is very important for the growth of white palm, except that shade maintenance is needed when the summer sun is strong, other seasonal temperatures are below 30 ℃. Sufficient light can promote the photosynthesis of white palm, improve the plant's ability to resist diseases and insect pests, strengthen its own physique and promote flowering.

4. Water and fertilizer

White palm can not grow without water, but we can't have much water either. to water white palm, we must need the principle of dry rather than wet and the principle of watering. How easily the water is waterlogged and rotten roots, leaves yellowing and so on. Lack of water for too long will also lead to dry leaves and yellowing! Therefore, it is very important to master the law of watering and to judge the degree of dryness and wetness of basin soil.

The growth of white palm is relatively fast, and there is more demand for nutrients. Lack of nutrients will lead to yellowing and shortness of leaves, and too much nutrients will lead to fertilizer damage when growing too happily. Therefore, it is advisable to fertilize white palm with thin fertilizer and apply it frequently instead of raw fertilizer. The self-made fat cake water needs to be fully cooked and diluted with water. Do not drip on the leaf surface. Fertilization should be paid attention to in high temperature in summer, preferably in the evening.

5. Change the basin and soil

The growth of white palm needs to change the soil every year or two, and when changing the basin, we should also trim the roots properly, trim some old roots, empty roots, and residual roots, remove some old soil, and add more new soil. it can promote the better growth of white palm.
