When a pothos (Epipremnum aureum) gets yellow leaves, water it with 1 tablet dissolved in water and it will turn lush green again.

Although autumn is the peak season for growing flowers, if you want to keep your plants and flowers healthy, you absolutely must not let your guard down in autumn. Why? Well, Huahua noticed that the pothos that grew the best and most vigorously in the office is starting to get yellow leaves, and they are very noticeable too! It really looks disheartening.

A colleague at the office couldn't stand it anymore, and as it happened, an old flower grower came to our company, so Huahua went to ask for advice. If she hadn't asked, she never would have known - it turns out there is so much knowledge behind this! Today Huahua will speak on behalf of the old flower grower and tell everyone what to do if a pothos gets yellow leaves!

If you want to know what to do about yellow leaves, you need to know exactly how they turn yellow. Many people immediately think it must be because their usual method of growing pothos is wrong, which makes the pothos grow poorly, and over time yellow leaves appear. Huahua thinks that yellow leaves on pothos are an important factor caused by improper care in our daily routine; only good daily habits can make plants grow better and keep them from getting sick.

Of course, yellow leaves can't have only one cause. Another cause is that nutrition can't keep up. If there isn't enough fertilizer, the plant can only show it through its own outward appearance. When fertilizing, it is very easy to overlook some trace elements and so on. The most likely result is an iron deficiency.

When plants are deficient in iron, yellow leaves are still a common occurrence, and the solution isn't as hard as you'd imagine - we only need one small tablet. This kind of tablet is ferrous sulfate; just take out one small tablet, dilute the ferrous sulfate with plenty of water, then water the plant with the diluted solution and it can ease the yellowing of the leaves.

Actually, it's equivalent to fertilizing the pothos and supplementing iron, thereby acting as a remedy. Although this ferrous sulfate solution is quite good, Huahua wants to remind everyone that when watering with ferrous sulfate, you can only water at most once a week, and after about 4 times of watering like this, the leaves will slowly turn back.

Through this matter, everyone should also understand the importance of the iron element, right? Normally, when we fertilize plants, we must pay attention: don't use only a single fertilizer when fertilizing, but rotate multiple fertilizers, and neither organic fertilizer nor compound fertilizer can be left out. Only in this way can you ensure comprehensive nutrition for the plant and prevent other problems from appearing.

Using ferrous sulfate to fertilize pothos is one of the better ways to supplement iron for pothos. If your pothos at home is showing yellow leaves at this time, it is very likely because the pothos is lacking iron, and ferrous sulfate can solve it!
