Q: when the leaves of our gardenia sprout, the top seems to be black. what is the reason? Is it normal?

Answer: the blackening of the top of gardenia leaves is definitely abnormal, and there are many reasons for this phenomenon. First, insect pests. Improper daily nursing leads to insect pests in gardenia, which is one of the main reasons for black spots on the newly sprouted tips of gardenia. Second, the temperature may be too low. When the temperature is relatively low, gardenia will automatically enter a dormant state, which leads to the blackening of the tip of gardenia. Third, too much watering, usually breeding gardenia, from time to time to water it, and a relatively large amount of water is also a reason for the blackening of gardenia tips. Fourth, improper fertilization. Fertilizing gardenia frequently leads to excess nutrition of gardenia and blackening of gardenia teeth.

Q: then how to solve these problems?

Answer: first, when it is found that gardenia has insect pests, it should be dealt with in a timely manner. If the pest is not too serious, you can spray the leaves with a harmless insecticide made by yourself, but if it is already a serious period when the pest is found, then you need to use the insecticide.

Second, gardenia is suitable to live in a suitable temperature environment, the general temperature of 16-25 degrees Celsius is the most appropriate, so we should pay attention to the temperature of gardenia culture, when winter comes, it is best to transplant gardenia to the room for breeding.

Third, do not always water gardenia, it has the ability to automatically absorb moisture in the air, if you really can not help watering gardenia, then you can spray less water each time, otherwise watering too much will easily lead to rotting roots.

Fourth, the main purpose of fertilization is to supplement enough nutrients for gardenia. if you start to plant gardenia, it will be very good to cultivate it with soil suitable for gardenia growth, and the soil should be slightly acidic. Usually, when fertilizing gardenia, you should pay attention to the number of times, once every three months, not directly in the root, away from the root, and apply fertilizer on the edge of the flowerpot. Change the basin of gardenia once a year. When changing the pot, you can cover the bottom of the pot with a thin layer of organic fertilizer to increase the nutrients in the soil, and then spread the soil.
