What if the leaves of the swallow's palm are soft?

The reason for the softness of the leaves of the palm of swallow

In fact, the softening of swallow palm leaves is a phenomenon often encountered when moving pots. Mainly because there are varying degrees of damage to the roots in the process of moving the basin, the damage to the roots will lead to the weakening of the plant's ability to absorb water and nutrients, and when it is serious, the plant will enter a state of dehydration, and the leaves will slowly soften without the maintenance of water.

Solution:

The old leaves, diseased leaves and insect leaves in the lower half of the plant can be trimmed off, which can reduce the waste of water and improve the survival rate. Don't take other measures blindly at this time. Just wait for the roots to return to normal and the leaves will slowly become plump and tender.

Reason two

After the basin is moved and watered, the swallow's palm is exposed to the sun, resulting in dehydration, which will not only soften the leaves, but also seriously affect the survival rate of the basin.

Solution:

First of all, move the plant to a well-ventilated place with astigmatism or semi-shade, so that the swallow's palm can return to normal, and the soil should not remain moist for a long time. When watering, you should first observe the soil. When there are cracks or slightly whitening on the soil surface, watering can be carried out. If the soil is not dry, watering is strictly prohibited. The soil is dry and watered, which is very effective in restoring its normal growth.

All plants will have different problems when moving the basin, and the leaves of the swallow's palm will slowly soften after moving the basin, so it will take a few days to return to normal, and we don't need to be in such a hurry.
