In May, asparagus shows yellow leaves and small flying insects hovering over it. Keep these five points in mind in maintenance.

Unwittingly has entered May, some flower friends reported that their own asparagus has some yellow leaves, and there are a few small flying insects hovering above all day, flying around, very annoying, the emergence of these conditions should bear in mind these 5 points!

1. Fertilization

In May, asparagus grows relatively fast, so it is necessary to apply more fertilizer to it, but in such hot weather, it is best not to apply flower fertilizer, because it is responsible for burning roots easily and causing yellow leaves, so you should choose organic fertilizer. You can bury a few cooked soybeans or some eggshell powder into the soil so that it can grow better.

2. Lighting

Asparagus is a light-loving plant, but the temperature rises gradually in May, and strong light can easily burn the leaves of asparagus, so pay attention to shading it to avoid being directly exposed to the sun at noon and move it to a bright shade.

3. Pruning

During the growing period, some branches grow very fast, seriously affecting the ornamental nature of asparagus, and will restrain the growth of other branches, so it is necessary to prune them. For those branches that grow too fast and have affected the ornamental effect, firmly cut off, do not be distressed, only in this way can we promote the growth of lateral buds and new buds, and make asparagus have a more hierarchical sense.

4. Dust removal

The sun is shining high in May, and the environment is relatively dry and dusty, which will block the breathing holes of asparagus leaves, resulting in inability to breathe, and from the appearance of yellow leaves, you can simply wipe its leaves with wet towels and wipe off the dust that falls on the leaves in the morning or evening when it is relatively cool.

5. Mosquito repellent

In today's weather, there are many mosquitoes, so in order to prevent mosquitoes from harming asparagus and affect the mood of viewing, you can light a section of mosquito incense around asparagus, which can play the role of repelling mosquitoes and stop flying insects from hovering above asparagus.
