So what is the cause of cyclamen yellow leaves? Come and have a look with the editor.

1. Yellow leaves without water

Cyclamen is a drought-tolerant plant, in general, it can be watered once a week in winter, the temperature is higher in summer, and the water evaporation of the plant is fast, so it is necessary to shorten the watering cycle, specific to the natural humidity. How should we judge that the basin soil is short of water? in fact, it is easy to judge that we only need to try it with our hands. The soil of the basin soil is generally relatively soft. Press the soil gently with your hands to feel whether there is moisture, or there is no need to water for the time being. If it is relatively dry, you need to water properly, but you should be careful not to have stagnant water, otherwise it will affect the breathing of the root system, and in serious cases, stagnant water retting the root.

2. Excessive watering of yellow leaves

Cyclamen is more tolerant, and it would rather be dry than stagnant water. In general, it can be watered every five days or so, and then it is not too late to wait until the soil is dry. Sometimes when the temperature is high, the air humidity can be increased by spraying water fog, which can also meet the water demand of leaves.

3. Light fruit

The beginning of plants is inseparable from the sun, especially in the flowering period, cyclamen blossoms in winter, its flowering period is as long as 3 months, if the flowering period is not bright enough, it will lead to yellowing leaves and withering flowers. Therefore, when breeding, it must be placed in a sunny place, especially during flowering, and the summer sun is strong, so it should be properly shaded, because cyclamen's stems are relatively delicate and easy to burn in strong light.

4. Lack of fertilizer

Potted cyclamen has less soil, so there are relatively few nutrients in the soil, especially after breeding for a long time, the fertility in the soil has been exhausted, which will cause nutrient deficiency and yellow leaves. At this time, it is necessary to change the soil and fertilize in time. For cyclamen after flowering, a small amount of flower fertilizer can be dissolved in water and then irrigated to the soil to supplement the nutrients needed by the plant.
