How to make the leaves yellow? there are six ways to make the leaves green easily.

Although spider orchid is a very good plant, but in the process of breeding, inevitably encounter some problems, such as yellowing leaves is one of them, it not only affects the appearance but also endangers the health of spider orchid, then spider orchid leaves yellowing how to do? Here are solutions based on several common causes.

What about yellow leaves?

The phenomenon of yellowing leaves appears, which is generally caused by the cultivation method of spider orchids or improper environment, so what about yellowing leaves of spider orchids? First of all, we must find the cause of yellowing, and then take corresponding measures according to the cause, as follows:

Do you think water shortage leaves yellow?

If the spider plant is left in a water shortage environment for a long time, its leaves will appear yellow, indicating that the old leaves in the lower part will turn yellow, and then the new leaves will also turn yellow, which is called drought yellow by botanists.

Countermeasures: water the spider plant. Pay attention to watering thoroughly when watering. Not only can the soil be wet, but don't let accumulated water appear in the soil. For details, please refer to how to water the spider plant.

2. Why does the lack of fat in the spider plant cause yellow

Lack of fertilizer is also one of the reasons for the yellowing of spider leaves. The nutrients contained in the soil will eventually be absorbed, and not fertilizing spider leaves will make them lack essential elements in the process of growth, such as nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, etc. Once these three elements are missing, the leaves will turn yellow.

Countermeasures: cut off the yellow leaves, replace the soil, and irrigate alum fertilizer water, and then pay attention to fertilizing the spider plant during the maintenance process.

Third, too much fertilizer

Some people think that the spider plant does not grow fast enough, so they try their best to fertilize it, even if the spider plant has a certain resistance to excessive fertilizer, but too much fertilizer will cause another phenomenon, that is, a yellowing, which is called the yellow phenomenon in botany.

Countermeasures: Remove the spider plant from the soil, clean the root system once with clean water, and then replace the new pot soil. Be careful not to hurt the root during the removal process.

IV. Lack of light

The reason why the leaves of spider plants can remain green is that they are constantly undergoing photosynthesis. Although they can also carry out photosynthesis in low light environments, if the light is too weak, some leaves will reduce photosynthesis and turn yellow.

Countermeasures: Use astigmatism to maintain the spider plant, and appropriate light can maintain the chlorophyll in the spider plant leaves, thus avoiding yellowing.

V. Soil hardening

Usually, the pot soil should be replaced once a year, and some people may not change the soil for one or even two years, and never loosen the soil. As a result, the soil will be hardened, and the water poured in will float above and cannot be absorbed by the roots, causing the roots to rot and lack of nutrients.

Countermeasures: change basin soil once a year, the best time to choose in spring, the soil selected outside is sandy soil with good permeability and drainage.

VI. The environment is sultry and closed

When the spider plant is in a hot and closed environment, it will not only appear yellow leaves, but also may be threatened by pests and diseases, because the hot and closed environment is less ventilated, and more than 30 degrees when the spider plant will stop growing.

Response measures: Move the spider plant to a well-ventilated place with a temperature below 30 degrees for maintenance, proper watering and fertilization, and generally resume normal growth after 3-4 weeks.

Summer leaves yellow.

Some people in the summer will find their own species of spider leaves turn yellow, while other seasons are normal, generally this phenomenon is caused by too strong light, summer sunshine will be more abundant, and spider like a cool environment, if long-term let spider be direct sunlight, there will be yellow leaves phenomenon.

Countermeasures: In summer, you should help shade the spider plant, or move it to a place where the sun does not shine.

How to make the yellow leaves of Phnom Penh yellow leaves and solutions

We encountered yellow leaves in the breeding process, do you know what to do? The following is to tell you about the causes and solutions of yellow leaves of Phnom Penh.

In the first case, fertilization is excessive and exceeds the demand of the Phnom Penh spider plant. After fertilization, the leaves will appear bright and uneven. Later, the roots will partially rot and appear yellow due to malnutrition. So this time should stop fertilizing, watering more, or washing the roots of the rice pot once, replacing the new soil is also a good way. It can be seen that spatial soil fluid concentration is important.

The second case: long time did not turn the soil, the soil hardened, when all the nutrients in the pot exhausted. The lack of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium, the most important elements, causes the leaves to turn yellow. This time should replace the soil or timely replacement of fertile loam and alum fertilizer irrigation.

The third case: Phnom Penh spider orchid belongs to semi-shade flowers, but it also needs light, so at least 4-5 hours of light should be guaranteed every day. Otherwise the chlorophyll will decrease and the leaves will turn yellow. The best way is to place it indoors under incandescent lamps or place it on a balcony.

The fourth kind of situation: the pot soil permeability and water permeability is poor, resulting in long-term ponding of the pot soil, root respiration is difficult, so the leaves naturally yellow. This time should be timely loose soil and control moisture.

The fifth case: long-term irrigation of a waterproof. Phnom penh spider orchid root water loss, the lower part of the old leaves become yellow. Water should be poured thoroughly to keep the basin soil warm and moist.

Phnom Penh spider orchid love wet, but excessive watering or poor drainage, it will cause rotten roots, so that Phnom Penh spider orchid poor growth, causing scorched death. Chlorophytum is more fertile, fertilizer and water shortage, plant leaves easy to occur yellow green, withered tip phenomenon. However, fertilization should not be excessive, depending on the growth of Phnom Penh hanging orchid, reasonable fertilization. Winter to prevent freezing, room temperature should not be lower than 4℃.

More information on how to cut yellow leaves.

Chlorophytum, also known as sedum sarmentosum, laurel orchid, hook orchid, folding crane orchid, is one of the common varieties of potted plants at home, in the breeding process encountered chlorophytum yellow leaves how to do? Can the yellow leaves be cut? Let's take a look at the answers below.

Can yellow leaves be cut?:

You can cut half of the yellow leaves of the spider plant with scissors, or even cut all the leaves.

Chlorophytum leaves dry, indicating that this leaf has been aging, or even sick, has been unable to carry out the next regular photosynthesis, so from the overall contribution to the plant has been small, so you can dry the leaves cut off half or all cut off, one from the overall view is beautiful, on the other hand, the growth of plants is beneficial.

Yellow leaves cause:

1. Fertilization is excessive, exceeding the plant's needs, and leaves appear shiny and uneven after fertilization, and later the root system partially decays and turns yellow due to malnutrition. So this time should stop fertilizing, watering more, or washing the roots of the rice pot once, replacing the new soil is also a good way. It can be seen that spatial soil fluid concentration is important.

2. The soil hardens when it is not turned for a long time. When all the nutrients in the pot are exhausted. The lack of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium, the most important elements, causes the leaves to turn yellow. This time should replace the soil or timely replacement of fertile loam and alum fertilizer irrigation.

3. Chlorophytum is a semi-shade flower, but it also needs light, so at least 4-5 hours of light should be guaranteed every day. Otherwise the chlorophyll will decrease and the leaves will turn yellow. The best way is to place it indoors under incandescent lamps or place it on a balcony.

Yellow leaves solution:

1. Chlorophytum leaves yellow may be too much fertilizer, more than the plant needs. At first, the leaves were bright and uneven, and then the roots rotted and the leaves were yellow. Should stop fertilizing, more irrigation water, or turn over the basin to clean the roots, replace the new soil.

2. Chlorophytum yellow leaves may also be a long time did not turn the pot for soil caused. All kinds of nutrient elements contained in the pot soil have been exhausted, the three elements of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium have not been supplemented in time, the plants lack nutrients, and the leaves appear yellow and thin. Should change fertile loam and irrigate alum fertilizer water in time.

3. Chlorophytum leaves yellow may also be caused by insufficient light. Although the spider orchid is a semi-negative flower, but at least four hours a day to see the astigmatism, or chlorophyll reduction, leaves yellow.

4. The permeability and water permeability of the basin soil are poor, resulting in long-term accumulation of water in the basin soil, difficulty in root respiration, so the leaves naturally yellow. This time should be timely loose soil and control moisture. Fifth, long-term irrigation is impervious. The root of spider orchid loses water, and the lower old leaves turn yellow. Water should be poured thoroughly to keep the basin soil warm and moist.
