Gardenia leaves turning yellow with dry tips, how should you care for it? One little method, easily solved

I took a look at your picture. Your gardenia's yellowing leaves are a sign of iron deficiency. The leaves are thin, and the dry tips mean there is a problem with the root system.

Yellowing leaves mean the acidic substances in the soil are lacking. Dry leaf tips are mainly caused by slight root suffocation in its root system, that is, poor indoor ventilation means the soil does not dry for a long time after watering, leading to waterlogging and root suffocation. And its yellowing leaves and lack of acidic substances are also caused by poor root growth. The roots absorb fewer acidic substances, so I suggest you first take care of the roots.

Xiao Qi will explain the solution. Generally, when people see this situation, the first thing they do is use ferrous sulfate, but Xiao Qi does not suggest you use it to drench the roots. Your leaves are black now, and the root system is clearly not good. Using it at this point will only make ferrous sulfate attach to the roots and reduce their absorption function. The best method is to use a spray bottle with a tiny bit of ferrous sulfate to spray the leaves, once every ten days. Do not make the concentration too strong, then prune the branches appropriately. Both overly dense and thin branches should be cut off. Long branches should be appropriately shortened.

Then move this pot of gardenia to a ventilated place and give it some scattered light. It must have good ventilation, then use mancozeb mixed with water to drench the roots and spray the leaves, once every seven days for about three times. At the beginning, drenching the roots once is enough. When the potting soil is almost dry, just water it thoroughly. Continuing this for about a month can effectively relieve the problem, and the new leaves will also be normal. Once growth is normal, use ferrous sulfate once every month to supplement the acidic substances in the soil, and its leaves will not turn yellow. Grasp the watering frequency, spray mancozeb, and maintain good ventilation. Then the blackening of its leaves will not occur.
