There are many times when growing flowers will be restricted by conditions, and the leaves often turn yellow easily. How can we make them healthier and more beautiful?

1. Light

If the potted succulent plants planted indoors have symptoms of yellow leaves due to lack of light, it is best to put them indoors in a sunny ventilation place to help reduce the phenomenon of overgrown yellow leaves. It is best to move out of the sun for 2 hours in the morning and evening to enhance photosynthesis.

two。 Fertilizer application

Timely fertilization is applied when the flower needs fertilizer. It was found that the most suitable period of fertilization was when the flowers and leaves became shallow or yellowed, and the plant growth was weak. When the flower seedlings send leaves, the branches should be fertilized when spreading leaves, in order to meet the needs of fertilizer for the rapid growth of seedlings.

Potted flowers should be fertilized for a small number of times, that is, more times of fertilization and less fertilizer each time. Flowers grow fast and flourish in spring and summer, and can be fertilized in an appropriate amount. After entering autumn, the temperature gradually decreases and the growth of flowers weakens, so we should apply less fertilizer. If overwintering flowers are dormant in winter, fertilizer should be stopped.

3. Watering

If only some leaves at the bottom are yellowing, it is likely to be the natural metabolism of the plant. If this happens, you don't have to worry about it. In general, the leaves will wither naturally after withering, which will not affect the growth of succulent plants. But if there are more withered leaves, then it is probably because of the lack of water, friends need to replenish water in time, so that the plant can return to a vibrant state.

If too much watering found that there are yellow leaves should immediately stop watering, loose basin soil, put in a ventilated and dry place to speed up water evaporation. Watering should be based on the principle of "seeing dry and wet, watering thoroughly".

4. Soil

The hard impervious soil plate results in that the irrigated water can not penetrate into the soil layer, resulting in most of the roots can not absorb water and nutrients, resulting in the loss of water and nutrition of leaves and the symptoms of yellow leaves. The best way is to use the loosening tool to insert the basin soil into the basin edge and gently shake the basin soil to make the basin soil have a sense of crack. Proper loosening soil is conducive to soil loosening, ventilation, drainage and root growth.

5. Temperature

When the indoor air is too dry, the room temperature in winter is too low, or the temperature in summer is too high, it will make the plants yellow. Attention should be paid to water spraying, plastic film cover and other methods to increase air humidity and adjust room temperature in time.

6. Diseases and insect pests

Should be timely spray prevention and control, and should be placed in a better ventilated place. At the same time, it should be noted that excessive concentration of pesticides will also lead to yellowing and scorching, or even death of the whole plant, so pesticides should be used reasonably.

It should also be noted that some yellow leaves have appeared in the succulent plants, and friends cannot take the initiative to pull the leaves off. Can only wait patiently for them to wither naturally. This is because if you pick the leaves directly, it is likely to cause the wound to be infected with bacteria, or even cause the plant to appear black rot.
