Planting some plants at home not only beautifies the environment, but also brings people a very pleasant mood. Watering flowers and plants every day is a kind of enjoyment. Nowadays, many people plant small lemons at home, but lemon trees sometimes encounter some problems, such as leaf shedding, so do you know why the leaves of potted lemon trees fall off? Where's Riley? The following editor introduces to you the reasons and solutions for the loss of leaves from lemon trees:

1. The potted plant I just bought passed out.

Experienced flower friends all know that many newly planted flowers will faint once, but to different degrees. If the lemon tree leaves you buy will fall off as soon as you touch the leaves, there is no need to worry, because this is the survival instinct of the plant. It's just a fake death. Don't worry, of course, if the leaves are dry and scorched yellow, it's probably not good.

2. Alkalization of irrigated multi-soil

Too much water, and the soil may be a little hardened and impervious. Water less and loosen the soil. If in the north, the soil may be alkaline, you can irrigate some ferrous sulfate to increase acidity (the specific ratio of water can be asked to florist). This should pay attention to change the soil, when watering, pay attention to not stagnant water, basin soil dry and then water, to spray more water in the leaves and tree trunks to stimulate its growth.

3. Root rot causes leaf shedding.

Root rot is often caused by excessive stagnant water in the basin or excessive fertilization. Remember to wipe off the flower buds, remove the rotting roots, and then pay attention to drainage. If there are too many rotten parts, the plant may not be able to save life.

4. Red spider harm

Check to see if the lemon tree is harmed by red spiders. if you remember to spray, clean the fallen yellow leaves from the lemon pot before spraying, loosen the soil frequently, and place the lemon plant in a place with plenty of light.

[warm Tip] in order to prevent the falling leaves of potted lemon trees from affecting the results, watering should be avoided in daily management, and fertilizer should be carefully controlled.

Conservation experience of potted lemon trees:

1. After lemon blossoms, it is necessary to thinning flowers and fruits in addition to applying thin fertilizer once a week. Before the flowers bloom, first remove some buds; after the flowers are shedding and setting fruit, in order to reduce nutrient consumption, and then remove some misplaced young fruits.

2. During the period of fruit growth, if the fertilizer and water are sufficient and the plant nutrition is good, some branches will sprout new shoots, and the growth of new shoots will inevitably divert some nutrients and affect the growth of fruit. In order to preserve the fruit, the new shoots should be erased in time.

3. When the fruit is yellow and ripe, stop fertilizing and reduce watering to keep the soil moist and slightly dry. If you continue to give too much fertilizer and water, the fruit will mature and fall early and shorten the viewing time.

4. Lemons like fertilizer, so they should apply more thin fertilizer at ordinary times. The plants were treated with rotten liquid fertilizer before sprouting, and then every 7-10 days with liquid fertilizer dominated by nitrogen fertilizer to promote the growth of branches and leaves and multiple spring shoots.

5. After picking the heart every time, fertilizer should be applied in time to promote the branches to mature earlier. Lemon growth period, can sprinkle some cake fertilizer in the basin, so that each watering there are some fertilizer infiltrated into the soil to enhance fertility. After entering autumn, fertilization is reduced to avoid overnutrition of plants, promote autumn shoots, and compete with fruits for nutrients, resulting in fruit drop.

6. due to the lack of potted soil, the nutrient supply of potted lemon is very limited. after many years, the soil fertility is lack, lemon will weaken year by year, blossom less and bear less fruit. In order to keep the lemon blossom and bear fruit year after year, the pot must be turned.

7. The best time to turn the basin is half a month before the lemon sprouts, put it in a ventilated and semi-shaded place after turning the basin, and put it back in place a week later for daily management.
