What if the bamboo leaves turn yellow on the back of the turtle? 11 reasons and 11 salvage methods

What is the matter with the yellow leaves of the turtle? 1. Unsatisfied pots lead to yellow leaves

Tortoise has just been replaced pot, to the new pot soil is not adapted to the phenomenon of disobedience to the pot, resulting in yellow leaves.

treatment methods

Ensure daily maintenance, timely watering when the pot soil is dry, cut off the yellow leaves, so as not to consume the nutrients in the pot soil, and so on after this period of service, the leaves of Tortoise will naturally restore green vitality.

2, sun exposure

Tortoise is a typical shade-tolerant plant, summer light is too strong, direct light easy to cause tortoise leaves charred edge or even yellow.

treatment methods

During midsummer to pay attention to shade, should be placed indoors or under the shade, can not be placed in the sun too strong balcony can, otherwise, easy to cause dead leaves.

3. Lack of light

Although the turtle bamboo likes shade, but the turtle bamboo can not be placed in a place where there is no sunlight for a long time, if the sun does not receive a little, so that the plant can not carry out photosynthesis, green pigment can not be formed, it will cause yellow leaves.

treatment methods

Put the turtle bamboo in the scattered light of sunlight for a period of time, but do not immediately place it under strong outdoor light to avoid burns.

4. Improper fertilization leads to yellowing of leaves

Excessive fertilization or application of raw fertilizer or concentrated fertilizer will appear old leaves dry tip, yellow fall off, new leaves hypertrophy, uneven. Turtle bamboo roots are relatively soft, avoid applying raw fertilizer and thick fertilizer, otherwise it is easy to cause burning roots, resulting in yellow leaves.

treatment methods

At ordinary times, fertilizer should be applied thinly and frequently. After fertilization, proper amount of water should be poured. If root burning has occurred, it is suggested to remove the pot and wash the roots as soon as possible, and then change the soil and replant for treatment. After maintenance for a period of time, the green leaves can be restored.

5. The indoor temperature is too low

Tortoise is not cold-resistant, the most suitable daily growth temperature is 20-25℃, in winter temperatures below 5℃ easy to occur freezing damage, causing Tortoise yellow leaves.

treatment methods

Before early winter, when the temperature is about 10 degrees, it is suggested that we should move the turtle back bamboo into the indoor maintenance, at the same time pay attention to water control to keep warm, enhance the cold resistance of the plant, in addition, pay attention not to put it at the door in winter, the door switch between cold and hot is also easy to cause yellow leaves of the turtle back bamboo.

6, improper watering, water in the basin

Tortoise bamboo likes to be wet, but it cannot be too wet for a long time, or even accumulated water, which easily leads to root rot and yellow leaves; at the same time, it cannot be watered for a long time, the pot soil is too dry, the plant is short of water, and the leaves will also be yellow.

treatment methods

Watering at ordinary times should ensure that the pot soil is dry and then watered. Generally, daily watering can be done once a day, once in the morning and evening in summer, and once in 3-4 days in winter. Every 7-10 days, spray the leaves with clean water close to room temperature to keep the plants evergreen and fresh, and improve the ornamental value.

7. The flowerpot is too small

The growth speed of turtle shell bamboo is too fast, and the branches and leaves grow too dense. In this case, if the flower friends do not change the pot in time, they still use the original small pot to maintain the turtle shell bamboo. The flower pot is too small to store enough nutrients to meet the nutrient requirements of the turtle shell bamboo, resulting in the lack of nutrients and yellowing of the leaves.

treatment methods

Turtleback bamboo needs to be replaced once a year, and the time for changing pots is best carried out at a suitable temperature between March and April, so that it is easy to take pots. When changing pots, remove part of old soil and dead roots, replace them with a bigger pot, put some hoof pieces and broken bones at the bottom of the pot as base fertilizer, and fill in the culture soil prepared by mixing 1/3 of rotting leaf soil, vegetable soil and sandy soil as substrate.

8, normal aging

If the daily maintenance of the turtle bamboo is proper, the turtle bamboo is a normal metabolism, as the plant grows, the lower leaves begin to age yellow.

treatment methods

There is no need to worry about yellowing of normal aging leaves of Tortoise, but the yellow leaves, residual leaves and some old leaves in the lower part of the plant should be pruned in time.

9, indoor environment is not ventilated

Long-term turtleback bamboo in poor ventilation environment, especially in summer hot, poor ventilation caused by yellowing of the leaves is more common, in addition to turtleback bamboo leaves grow luxuriantly, long-term no pruning, its internal branches and leaves do not receive light, easy to cause yellowing of the leaves inside.

treatment methods

Move the turtleback bamboo to a place with good ventilation environment, keep ventilation and cooling, apply fertilizer reasonably and strengthen pruning branches and leaves, and ensure that the pot soil cannot be too dry. Under the maintenance treatment, the turtleback bamboo will gradually recover green leaves.

10. The leaves are too dirty

Turtle bamboo usually pay attention to keep the leaves clean and tidy, if the accumulation of dust on the leaves affects photosynthesis, it will also lead to yellow leaves.

treatment methods

Every once in a while, we should pay attention to wiping the leaves of Turtle Bamboo with a clean wet cloth to keep the leaves clean.

11. Invasion of diseases and insect pests a. Leaf spot disease

Leaf spot disease is a common disease of Monstera chinensis. Leaves are easy to be scorched and shed after being damaged.

treatment methods

Put it in a ventilated, bright place to reduce morbidity. 65% mancozeb wettable powder 600 times spray control.

b. Scale insects

It is a common pest of Tortoise. It mainly damages petioles and leaves. If there are more scale insects, it will affect the photosynthesis of plants, resulting in weak growth potential and yellow leaves, which will hinder viewing.

treatment methods

Injured plants are few, or the number of insects is not many, generally use toothbrush and other things to scrape off the insect body, if in the insect incubation period can be sprayed with 40% dimethoate emulsifiable solution 1000 times (or 40% omethoate emulsifiable solution 1000 times), can also spray 5% phoxim emulsifiable solution 1000 times to kill.

How do you deal with yellow leaves and yellow leaves?

Because turtleback bamboo is a very good indoor ornamental plant, many people like to raise, but in the breeding process will encounter turtleback bamboo leaves yellow, what should we do? Let's take a look at the causes and solutions of yellow leaves.

1, environmental mutations lead to yellow leaves: the cause of environmental mutations, soil, temperature, humidity and light suddenly change too much. Tortoise was originally parasitic plant, developed root system for the fleshy roots, soil porosity and permeability requirements are higher. Both viscous and slightly viscous soils affect root growth in varying degrees. If the soil permeability is not good or the soil is not changed for a long time, it may cause soil hardening, affect the respiration of Tortoise, and thus make Tortoise grow poorly and the leaves turn yellow.

Solution: family potted turtle bamboo, cultivated soil can be cooked loess 2 parts, honeycomb ash 1 part, chicken manure 1 part mixed soil. This not only ensures that the potted soil permeability can also meet the fertilizer requirements required for growth.

2, too much watering leads to yellow leaves (water yellow): water will cause the rotten root phenomenon of turtle bamboo, this situation will cause the yellow leaf phenomenon of turtle bamboo.

Solution: Turtle bamboo should be watered regularly, once watered thoroughly, keep the surface of the basin slightly dry, when the air is dry, sprinkle water on the environment and turtle bamboo leaves.

3, long-term water shortage leads to yellow leaves (dry yellow): less water will make the plant lack water and poor growth, this situation will cause the yellow leaves of the turtle bamboo phenomenon.

Solution: Regularly pour enough water

4. Exposure causes yellow leaves of Turtle Bamboo (burning yellow): Put Turtle Bamboo under strong light, and strong light will cause the leaves of Turtle Bamboo to burn and turn yellow.

Solution: Turtle bamboo should pay attention to shade in summer.

5, dry air leads to yellow leaves: dry air will cause yellow leaves.

Solution: To maintain good indoor ventilation, you can also put the turtle bamboo indoors during the day and move it outdoors at night.

6, lack of sunlight leads to yellow leaves (lack of light yellow): Turtle bamboo shade tolerance, but long-term placement of turtle bamboo in the shade environment, will affect photosynthesis, and make the leaves yellow.

Solution: It is best to give some scattered light to the turtle.

7, the temperature is too low to cause yellow leaves: the growth temperature of the turtle bamboo is 20~25℃, the winter night temperature seedling stage is not lower than 10℃, the mature plant can withstand 5℃ for a short time, and it is easy to freeze below 5℃, causing yellow leaves of the turtle bamboo.

Solution: In winter, it is necessary to keep the roots of the turtle bamboo properly warm to enhance the cold resistance of the plant, but do not put the turtle bamboo directly on the radiator or next to the air conditioner.

8. Long-term lack of fertilizer leads to yellowing of leaves (lack of fertilizer yellow): Iron is a necessary raw material for plant synthesis of chlorophyll. If the iron element in soil or fertilizer is insufficient, it will affect the synthesis of chlorophyll in turtle bamboo, thus causing the leaves to lose green and turn yellow.

Solution: due to iron deficiency caused by yellow leaves, should apply alum fertilizer water or spray 0.1-0.3% ferrous sulfate solution.

9. Diseases and insect pests lead to yellowing of the leaves of Turtle Bamboo: Grey spot disease of Turtle Bamboo, also known as leaf blight, is a common disease of Turtle Bamboo. When the disease is severe, it can cause leaves to die. Usually the indoor temperature is low or the disease is serious after being smoked and pests, and the disease is mostly on the old leaves.

Solution: Strengthen cultivation management to control room temperature, not too low. Timely control pests, cut off diseased leaves or diseased tissues of leaves, and destroy them in a centralized manner. Chemical control can be sprayed with 0.5% Bordeaux mixture or 50% Tuijunte 1000 times solution.

What about yellow leaves? The solution to yellow leaves

Many flower friends reflect that the phenomenon of yellow leaves of turtle back bamboo is more serious, what is the reason? How do you solve it effectively? Next, I will introduce you to the causes and solutions of yellow leaves of Turtle Bamboo in detail, and help you to plant Turtle Bamboo better.

The causes of yellow leaves and solutions:

My turtleback bamboo disease, turtleback bamboo leaves began to yellow, there are dry spots on the leaves, is it dying? How much water do you need at one time?

Tortoise is an evergreen vine, often used in indoor potted plants layout, the cultivation of Tortoise is not troublesome, but occasionally improper maintenance will also appear Tortoise yellow leaves, the following we look at the causes of Tortoise yellow leaves and solutions:

Reasons for yellow leaves: 1. Soil discomfort

Tortoise was originally parasitic plant, developed root system for the fleshy roots, soil porosity and permeability requirements are higher. Both viscous and slightly viscous soils affect root growth in varying degrees. If the soil permeability is not good or the soil is not changed for a long time, it may cause soil hardening, affect the respiration of Tortoise, and thus make Tortoise grow poorly and the leaves turn yellow.

Solution: family potted turtle bamboo, cultivated soil can be cooked loess 2, honeycomb ash 1, chicken manure 1 mixed mixed soil. This not only ensures that the potted soil permeability can also meet the fertilizer requirements required for growth.

The reason for the yellow leaves of the turtle: 2. Too much or too little watering

More water will cause the root rot phenomenon, less water will make the plant water shortage and poor growth, both of which will cause the yellow leaf phenomenon of Tortoise.

Solution: Turtle bamboo should be watered regularly, once watered thoroughly, keep the surface of the basin slightly dry, when the air is dry, sprinkle water on the environment and turtle bamboo leaves.

Reasons for yellow leaves: 3, light is too strong or too dark

Tortoise is shade-tolerant, but long-term placement of Tortoise in shade will affect photosynthesis and make leaves yellow; at the same time, Tortoise cannot be placed under strong light, which will cause Tortoise leaves to burn and turn yellow.

Solution: turtleback bamboo should pay attention to shade in summer, it is best to give turtleback bamboo some scattered light.

Reasons for yellow leaves: 4, low temperature

The optimum temperature for the growth of Monstera chinensis is 20~25℃. The temperature at night in winter is not lower than 10℃ at seedling stage. The mature plants can tolerate 5℃ for a short time.

Solution: In winter, it is necessary to keep the roots of the turtle bamboo properly warm to enhance the cold resistance of the plant, but do not put the turtle bamboo directly on the radiator or next to the air conditioner.

The reason for the yellow leaves of the turtle: 5, too little fertilizer

Iron is a necessary raw material for plant synthesis of chlorophyll. If the iron element in soil or fertilizer is insufficient, it will affect the synthesis of chlorophyll, thus causing the leaves to lose green and turn yellow.

Solution: due to iron deficiency caused by yellow leaves, should apply alum fertilizer water or spray 0.1-0.3% ferrous sulfate solution.

Reasons for yellow leaves: 6, poor ventilation

Bad ventilation can cause yellow haze in the leaves of Tortoise.

Solution: To maintain good indoor ventilation, you can also put the turtle bamboo indoors during the day and move it outdoors at night.

Causes of yellow leaves: 7, disease

Gray spot disease of Monstera chinensis, also known as leaf blight, is a common disease of Monstera chinensis. When the disease is severe, it can cause leaves to die. Usually the indoor temperature is low or the disease is serious after being smoked and pests, and the disease is mostly on the old leaves.

Solution: strengthen cultivation and management, while paying attention to control room temperature, not too low. Turtle bamboo timely control pests, cut off diseased leaves or leaf disease tissue, centralized destruction. Chemical control can be sprayed with 0.5% Bordeaux mixture or 50% Tuijunte 1000 times solution.

Tortoise is a kind of potted foliage plant loved by families. If it is not properly maintained, it is easy to have yellow leaves, which will affect the ornamental value, and seriously affect the growth and even the death of the plant. Tortoise likes warm and humid living environment, avoid strong light exposure and dryness. The optimum temperature for growth is 20~25℃. In China, especially in the north, the environment of high temperature and humidity in summer and cold and dry in winter is not suitable for the growth of Toraba.
