What if the leaves of orchids turn yellow and the tips are scorched?
Many potted friends like home-raised orchids, but some potted friends find that orchids are not easy to grow well, especially in a potted environment, it seems very difficult to make them grow vigorously and blossom smoothly. Even some friends accidentally feed the orchids to death, so there are more complaints.
But the most common adverse situation is that the leaves of orchids turn yellow and the leaves become scorched and withered. When we encounter these poor growth of orchids, we also have a way to solve them, and the operation is very simple. So, what about the yellow leaves and scorched tips of orchids?
In fact, we only need to prepare a few tablets for the orchid to restore its oil-green growth. Original and this kind of pill is ferrous sulfate, give a little to the orchid, can make up for iron deficiency yellowing. Because when the orchid is lack of iron, it is easy to appear yellow leaves, scorched leaf tips and other phenomena.
When the orchid is deficient in iron, not only the above adverse phenomena will occur, but also the surface of the leaves will slowly change from green to white. If iron deficiency occurs for a long time, its leaves may also dry and die, and even seriously may lead to the death of the whole plant. Therefore, it is recommended that we usually keep some ferrous sulfate tablets at home.
Using a little ferrous sulfate for orchids can not only supplement iron, but also improve the acidity of the basin soil, making the soil more suitable for the growth of acidophilic plants like orchids. Mainly we correctly use this pill, to promote the growth of orchids, the effect is very obvious.
And the method is relatively simple, which is to take a few ferrous sulfate tablets, grind them into powder, put them into a container, and dissolve and dilute them according to 800 with water. After letting the tablet fully dissolve and shake the solution, use this solution instead of water in the basin when watering the orchid.
Generally speaking, we keep watering the orchid with this solution every half a month and watering it twice in a row, which can often make the orchids with yellow leaves, scorched leaf tips and poor leaf color return to green again. Before and after, that is, about a month, the orchid can return to normal growth and ornamental state, and the growth is also very exuberant.
Of course, if there is no ferrous sulfate at home, we can also use green alum instead. According to the above method, it can also play the same role in promoting growth. Therefore, when we encounter the above problems in orchids, we can easily solve the problem with a little ferrous sulfate or green alum.
