Money tree and camellia leaves turning yellow and dropping: leave them alone and they may wither and die

What should you do when a money tree's leaves turn yellow and drop?

Anyone who has grown a money tree knows that a very common problem is yellowing and dropping leaves, and this is basically caused by improper care methods. Huahua has listed a few of the most easily made mistakes in care. Gardening friends, once you have read them, hurry and correct them!

1. Young leaves turn yellow first, because of too much watering

If you find that the money tree's young leaves turn yellow first, and then the old leaves also slowly turn yellow and fall off, this is caused by too much watering. Water again only after the soil is dry. In spring, generally water once every 7 days, and when you water, water thoroughly.

2. Old leaves turn yellow first, because of lack of water

If the money tree's old leaves start to turn yellow and dry up first, and then the yellowing and leaf drop move from bottom to top, this is a symptom caused by the money tree lacking water. Some gardening friends do not water thoroughly and only give half a watering, leaving the money tree still in a state of water shortage.

3. Not enough fertilizing

If nitrogen fertilizer is lacking for a long time, the money tree's leaves will turn yellow and drop. Now that spring has arrived, some gardening friends who want to repot their money tree can sprinkle a little decomposed chicken manure on the bottom of the pot, or apply a small amount of compound fertilizer, peel nutrient solution, etc. each month.

4. Insufficient light

If a money tree is kept in a dark place for a long time, photosynthesis will be affected, and the leaves will definitely turn yellow. Gardening friends should usually keep the money tree in a bright place for care.

What should you do when a happiness tree turns yellow?

The happiness tree has emerald-green leaves, is a very beautiful ornamental green plant, and can also purify the air. Many people keep one at home. Why do happiness tree leaves turn yellow?

1. Too much watering

Money tree leaves turning yellow is very often caused by too much watering. You must wait until the soil is dry before watering, and when you water, do not give half a watering; water until water flows out of the drainage holes. Spring is exactly when new branches sprout, so just keep the soil relatively moist, and water once every 1 week.

2. Soil compaction

Soil compaction will hinder root respiration and cause yellow leaves. When mixing soil for a happiness tree, you can mix garden soil, leaf mold, river sand, and decomposed cake fertilizer in a 5:3:1:1 ratio. Generally, repot a happiness tree once every 1-2 years and replace the soil with new soil in time.

3. Air that is too dry

Spring is relatively dry, and if air humidity is too low, it will cause money tree leaves to turn yellow. You can spray water on the front and back of the leaves every day to maintain air humidity.

4. Kept in a dark place for a long time

The happiness tree likes light, so it should be placed in a bright place, and then its leaves will grow greener and greener!

5. Yellowing caused by pests and diseases

When a money tree is infected by leaf spot disease or pests and diseases such as scale insects and aphids, its leaves will also turn yellow. First, promptly isolate it from other healthy plants, remove the diseased leaves, and promptly spray medicine to sterilize and kill insects.

What should you do when camellia leaves turn yellow?

Camellias have elegant posture and bright flower colors, and are loved by many gardening friends. Many gardening friends say camellias are too delicate and hard to grow, turning yellow at the slightest thing, and they do not know how many pots they have killed. Huahua will teach you a few tricks so your camellia leaves grow glossy green and vigorously!

1. Alkaline soil causes yellow leaves

Camellias like acidic soil, and if the soil is alkaline, it will cause yellow leaves. Soil in the north is alkaline, so northern gardening friends very easily get yellow leaves when growing camellias. Gardening friends can pour some fermented rice washing water into the soil to adjust the soil's acidity and alkalinity.

2. Lack of iron and nitrogen elements

During the growth process of camellias, a lack of nitrogen and iron elements will cause yellowing. You can pour fermented okara fertilizer liquid once a month to supplement nitrogen, and pour a 0.5-1% ferrous sulfate solution once a month, which can greatly improve the yellow leaf phenomenon.

3. Pests and diseases cause yellow leaves

After camellias are gnawed on by red spiders and scale insects, yellow leaves will result. Gardening friends can use boiled chili water to spray and kill red spiders, and use 75% alcohol to wipe the leaves and kill scale insects.
