They would like to know what to do if the leaves of ginseng banyan turn yellow. In this regard, the first thing we need to do is to find out the cause of the yellowing of the leaves, and then prescribe the right medicine to the case, specifically reflected in five aspects: environment, light, watering, fertilization and insect pests.

2. the causes and solutions of the yellowing of ginseng and banyan leaves.

1. Environmental issues

Generally speaking, there are many reasons for the yellowing of ginseng banyan leaves, but the first thing we should consider is the environment. For potted plants purchased online, because of the large geographical span, ginseng banyan may not be able to adapt to the changing growth environment and may have yellow leaves. In addition, if ginseng banyan is placed in an unventilated place, it will also appear yellow leaves over time.

The solution: simply put the ginseng banyan in the most suitable environment for its growth, such as a well-ventilated and well-lit place, and after a period of time, its leaves will return to health.

2. Improper lighting

① light is too strong: ginseng banyan likes light, and sufficient light in the growth process can make it grow luxuriantly. But ginseng bogey strong light, if the light is too strong, its leaves may be burned and withered yellow. Solution: move the ginseng banyan to the indoor semi-shade for maintenance, after a period of time, appropriate watering, and then careful maintenance for a few days, it will recover.

② lack of light: sufficient light can make ginseng banyan grow more luxuriantly and the leaves are greener, but if the light is not enough, the leaves will turn yellow if they do not get enough photosynthesis. Solution: when breeding indoors, ginseng banyan should be moved to a semi-shady place for maintenance, and from time to time let go outside to bask in the sun, of course, when the sun is not too strong.

3. Improper watering

① is underwatered: the yellowing of ginseng banyan leaves is usually caused by too much drought. Ginseng banyan like a humid environment, if it is not watered for a long time, or has not been watered thoroughly, for a long time, the leaves will turn yellow because of lack of water. Solution: pour a small amount of water in time, and spray water on the leaves, so that the leaves replenish water as soon as possible.

Too much ② watering: plants such as ginseng banyan prefer a moist environment, but usually need a degree, too much watering, resulting in stagnant water in the basin, easy to make the lack of oxygen in the soil, resulting in part of the fibrous root of ginseng banyan due to lack of oxygen, poor ventilation and rot, resulting in leaves yellowing, serious ginseng banyan leaf loss phenomenon. Solution: move the ginseng banyan to a ventilated place, dry the basin soil in time, and reduce the watering frequency.

4. Improper fertilization

① soil is alkaline: ginseng banyan prefers slightly acidic soil, if improper fertilization, especially excessive application of nitrogen fertilizer, resulting in alkaline soil, it will easily cause ginseng banyan leaves yellowing. Solution: stop watering, and then more watering, let the fertilizer out of the soil as soon as possible, or trouble, directly change the pot soil, let the plant refresh again.

② insufficient fertilization: ginseng banyan growth, need sufficient nutrients, if insufficient fertilization, plants do not get enough nutrients, but also cause branches and leaves thin, leaves yellowing. Solution: appropriately increase the amount of fertilizer, so that ginseng banyan has adequate nutrition, the leaves will recover quickly.

5. Insect pests

When the temperature is high and the room is not ventilated, the ginseng banyan, which is not susceptible to insects, will also be attacked by insects, causing the leaves to turn yellow. At this time, we must find pests in time, and control them as soon as possible through artificial and drug control, otherwise the spread of pests will seriously endanger the health of plants.

Ginseng banyan, which is cultivated from the seedlings of Ficus microphylla, is an evergreen tree plant of the genus Ficus of Moraceae. its potted plants have been transplanted to various parts of the world, with roots shaped like ginseng, natural shape, exposed root plate, beautiful crown and unique charm. It is interesting and enjoyable, and is deeply loved by consumers all over the world. Let's take a look at how potted ginseng banyan is cultivated.

Growth habits of ginseng banyan

The vitality of ginseng banyan is amazing. It can grow in any environment and any soil, and can even be attached to stones or retaining walls. Salt-resistant, light-loving and warm and humid climate, water and moisture resistance. It grows slowly and has a broad and dense crown and branches. The growth temperature is 1833 degrees, not less than 10 degrees in winter, and it is easy to suffer frost damage if it is lower than 6 degrees. Sex likes a warm and humid environment. It can be placed in places with proper light in spring and autumn and in places without direct sunlight in summer. Watering should be dry and wet, and the basin soil should always be kept moist.

Propagation methods of ginseng banyan

1. Sowing: ginseng and banyan should be sowed along with seed collection, treatment and sowing. First wrap the ripe berries with cotton gauze, scrub and wash them into a dilapidated shape in clean water, then sow them directly in the finished sand bed or flowerpot after drying for 2 or 3 days, remove the sowing, do not cover the soil, spray clean water once or twice a day, and keep the bed moist. Under the condition of 25-30 ℃, it sprouted one after another 10 days after sowing.

2. Cuttage: when a large number of seedlings are raised in South and Southwest China, tender wood cuttings are often carried out on the open-field nursery bed in the rainy season, and the survival rate is more than 95%. In the north, one-year-old full branches can be picked in early May and cut in flowerpots, wooden boxes or seedbeds. Cut the branches according to 3 sections, keep the first 1-2 leaves, insert them into plain sandy soil, protect them from shade, spray water once or twice a day to improve air humidity, pay attention to windproof, and take root one after another after 20 days.

3. Striping: in order to cultivate large seedlings, ginseng banyan can be pressed by making use of the soft characteristics of big branches. First put a large flowerpot near the mother plant and install the potted soil, then choose a large side branch with good shape to bend down and bury the flowerpot, and press it with stones, the human-soil part can take root without being scratched, and it can be cut off from the mother body 2 months later to form a larger potted plant.

How to raise potted ginseng banyan?

1. Soil: the bonsai culture of ginseng banyan is best cultivated in river sand or sandy soil. in order to make the root of ginseng banyan big and fat, a little fertilizer should be added, which can be added with a higher proportion of phosphorus and potassium fertilizer. When cultivating ginseng banyan, be sure to use seeds to sow seeds in order to grow fat roots.

2. Temperature: the best growth temperature of ginseng banyan is between 18 and 33 degrees Celsius, so we should pay attention to sun protection and frost protection in winter and summer, especially in winter, the temperature should not be too low, otherwise the fallen leaves are small and may freeze to death.

3. Watering: ginseng banyan can keep the basin soil slightly tidal, but it must not accumulate water, and all flowers and plants cannot accumulate water, so we should control the frequency of watering and water again when the basin soil is dry (dry is not very dry, do not go to extremes).

4. Fertilization: ginseng banyan does not like fertilizer, but a small amount of compound fertilizer (slow-release fertilizer) can be applied once every season. The main composition of fertilizer is nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium. Fertilizing 3 to 4 times a year should not be excessive, otherwise it will easily lead to excessive growth of branches and leaves and destroy the composition and shape of the plant.

5. Change the basin: ginseng banyan can change the pot every 2 years, and the best time is before leaving the house in spring. Pick out the soil around the flowerpot, take out the huge root plants, mash away part of the persistent soil, and re-choose fresh and fertile, loose drainage, nutrient-rich culture soil.

6. Pruning: while changing the basin, ginseng banyan makes appropriate pruning and adjustment of branches and leaves, so that it can continue to maintain a good plant shape. Watering should not be excessive when just changing soil, and then normal water and fertilizer management should be given when the temperature rises to more than 20 ℃.

Matters needing attention of ginseng banyan

1. The newly bought ginseng Rongyi needs to adapt to a new environment, and it may also be newly planted by merchants, so it is normal to lose the leaves at the beginning, so take the pot after you buy it, and consider the management methods such as sun exposure and fertilization after taking the pot.

2. Ginseng and banyan potted plants should not be moved at will. after choosing a good location, in addition to watering or occasionally taking care of it, do not take care of it three times a day.

3. Ginseng banyan should pay attention to ventilation, because it is resistant to semi-shade, so some flower friends grow indoors, which leads to poor indoor air circulation and no vitality of ginseng banyan.

4. Ginseng banyan should pay attention to pruning, the reason why it looks good is because the tree shape is good, if there is no pruning for a long time, there will be no ornamental value, so pruning is necessary and can be carried out every spring.

What if the leaves of ginseng and banyan turn yellow?

1. Overwatering

[reason] too much watering, long-term wet water in the basin soil, resulting in a lack of oxygen in the soil, causing some fibrous roots to rot, thus weakening the ability to absorb water and fertilizer, causing ginseng banyan to change from tender leaves to light yellow, and flowers and leaves gradually turn to dark yellow one after another.

[method] if there is too much watering, we should immediately control watering, stop fertilization, and often loosen the soil to make the basin soil breathable.

2. Too little watering

[reason] too little watering, or long-term half-cut-off or missed watering, so that the evaporation of water in the leaves is greater than the absorption, resulting in a shortage of water supply and yellowing of the leaves.

[method] if too little watering is found, immediately move the flowerpot to a cool place, spray some water on the leaf surface, and pour a small amount of water.

3. Excessive fertilization

[reason] especially when there is too much nitrogen fertilizer and lack of phosphorus and potassium fertilizer, it is easy to cause the leaves to turn yellow.

[methods] if you fertilize too much, you should apply fertilizer immediately, increase the amount of water, let the fertilizer flow out from the drainage hole, or pour the basin immediately, remove part of the old soil, wash the soil block with water, replace part of the new culture soil, and then plant the plant back into the pot.

4. Insufficient fertilization

[reason] insufficient fertilization, or no application of nitrogen fertilizer for a long time or no change of soil, lack of nitrogen nutrition in the soil, resulting in thin and yellow branches and leaves.

[methods] if you need to pour the pot in time if there is not enough fertilizer, take out the plant, replace it with a larger pot, load it into a new loose and fertile culture soil, replant it, and put it in half-light after pouring water to slow down the seedlings.

5. The degree of illumination

[reason] although ginseng banyan likes a sunny environment, if it is maintained in a place of strong light for a long time, it is very easy to cause tender leaf buds or leaf edge scorched or the whole leaf yellowing, and long-term maintenance in the place of insufficient indoor light will also lead to growth weakeness. leaves become thin and yellow.

[methods] to cultivate ginseng rong, it is usually necessary to put it outside in the sun or half-light, and then move it indoors to watch after flowering.

6. Disease and insect nuisance

[reason] Ginseng banyan diseases and insect pests are rare, occasionally caused by shell insects, but if you don't pay attention to them, the diseases and insect pests will grow wildly over time, which will also cause the leaves to turn yellow and fall off more seriously.

[methods] when the disease occurs, the insects should be brushed away manually immediately, and the management should also be carried out from the aspects of reducing watering, maintaining shade, spraying more foliar water, softening water quality and reducing fertilization.
