The cause of yellowing of thyme leaves and its solution
Thyme has high ornamental value and is suitable for indoor culture, but the yellowing of leaves often occurs during breeding, which seriously affects the ornamental effect. So what is the cause of the yellowing of thyme leaves? How to solve it? Come and have a look with the editor.
1. Light discomfort
Thyme has a high demand for light, lack of light will cause thyme to grow, resulting in yellowing of leaves. If the light is too strong, exposure will also cause burns of thyme leaves, resulting in yellowing of leaves. The suitable temperature for thyme growth is 20-25 degrees, which is a cold-resistant and heat-resistant plant.
Solution: put it in a place with plenty of light in time when the light is insufficient, but you need proper shading at noon, especially high temperature and strong light in summer. If the leaves are yellowed due to excessive light, you need to know how to put them in a cool and ventilated place, water them properly, accept scattered light, and restore them after a period of maintenance.
2. Improper watering
The leaves of thyme are fleshy, so they have a certain ability to resist drought, but they are not resistant to stagnant water. Too much watering will lead to root respiration, which over time will cause root respiration, resulting in a large number of fallen leaves and yellow leaves. But too much watering will also lead to yellow leaves, yellowing leaves will also be significantly thinner, and non-yellowing leaves will also appear withered and soft phenomenon.
Solution: when it is found that the thyme leaves are withered and yellow, we should put them in a cool and ventilated place to dry, wait until there is no water flowing out of the potted soil, then put them back into the flowerpot and replant them. When the situation is serious, the rotten roots need to be replanted, too little watering leads to yellow leaves, and should be watered in time.
3. Improper fertilization
Thyme grows slowly. Do not need too much fertilizer, the vigorous growth in spring and autumn is to apply thick fertilizer every half a month, the summer temperature is too high, it is necessary to stop fertilization, otherwise excessive fertilization can easily lead to the death of rotten roots. But also can not fertilize too thick or too often, once fertilized too much or too often, thyme is very easy to appear yellow leaf phenomenon.
Solution: fertilization must be properly controlled, it is recommended to dilute before fertilization, it is best to apply along the basin, pay attention to do not drop on the leaves, so as not to cause leaves to yellowing and rot.
4. Diseases and insect pests
Diseases and insect pests can also cause the leaves of thyme to turn yellow, so it is necessary to maintain good ventilation during normal maintenance, clean up the dead branches and leaves in time, observe the surrounding environment of the plant, and keep the growth clean. When there are few pests, the seeds can be wiped clean with a soft brush, or they can be sprayed to get rid of pests. Remember to prevent and cure them in time after finding them, otherwise it will be difficult to save them for a long time.
