Many friends ask, what causes yellow leaves on gardenias, and how should they be treated? Today we will talk about the causes of yellow leaves on gardenias and how to treat them

If the gardenia we grow shows yellowing along the leaf veins first, and then it spreads until the whole leaf turns yellow, this is iron-deficiency yellowing, because the gardenia is a flower from the south and likes slightly acidic soil, so ferrous sulfate needs to be added regularly

Let's briefly talk about how to use ferrous sulfate. When we buy ferrous sulfate, it usually comes with a gram scoop, that is, a 1-gram scoop. We use about 500 ml of water, which is the amount of water in a mineral water bottle, and mix in half a gram of it. This ratio is about 1:1000,

After mixing the water, shake it well, first drench the roots of the gardenia once, wait about 10 minutes, and then water thoroughly with clean water. In this way, the components of the ferrous sulfate spread through the soil and are absorbed by the root system,

If the yellow leaves are very severe, after about 10 days, use the same ratio to spray the leaves, once every half month, and after about two or three times the yellowing can be stopped and the leaves begin to turn green

This is a gardenia of a friend's that was badly neglected. At the time there were two pots, and the other pot had already stopped yellowing and the leaf veins had begun to turn green, so it was taken away

This pot of gardenia is not only lacking iron, but also lacking fertilizer, because the leaves have turned yellow and it has stopped growing. Later I will change the soil for it, replace all the old soil, and plant it again in loose, breathable soil. When changing the pot and soil, the branches should be pruned a bit. More videos will follow, and everyone is welcome to watch

Today we are mainly talking about the use of ferrous sulfate. With ferrous sulfate, it is better to use a small amount than to use too much. Its root system absorbs a fixed amount, so it must be supplemented gradually. Using too much easily burns the seedlings

When a gardenia has yellow leaves and grows slowly, pour a little of this magical water on it; it works even better than fertilizer, and it will immediately turn green and bloom. Have you learned it?
