What to do if the leaves of the lucky tree fall off when touched? How to save the fallen leaves

1. Water appropriately

Reason: When caring for the lucky tree, if you water it too much, water will accumulate in the potting soil. This will lead to oxygen deprivation in the roots of the plant, damaging the root system. The absorption and transmission of nutrients will be hindered, which will manifest on the outside of the plant in that the leaves will easily turn yellow and dry, and fall off at the slightest touch. But if you water too little, the leaves will be scarce and become fragile and easy to fall off.

Measures: If the problem is due to excessive watering, you need to move it to a ventilated place with scattered light, loosen the soil, speed up the evaporation of excess water in the potting soil, and allow the potting soil to dry again. If it is because of insufficient watering, you should increase the amount of water and the frequency of watering appropriately. Water the plant when you see the surface of the soil in the pot is dry. Water thoroughly each time to moisten the soil, but do not allow water to accumulate.

2. Adjust the lighting

Reason: When the light is too strong, it will burn the leaves of the plant and make it fall off easily. Too little light will make it difficult for the branches and leaves to carry out normal photosynthesis to synthesize nutrients, and they will easily fall off over time.

Measures: If the light is too strong, you need to move it to a cool place for maintenance first, and then move it to an environment with scattered light for maintenance after it recovers. If it is because there is too little light, you can move it to a place with more light. When there is strong light, it needs to be shielded.

3. Rinse the soil

Reason: If you do not pay attention to the amount of fertilizer when applying during the maintenance process and apply too much, the roots of the plant will not be able to absorb so much nutrients in time, and a lot of fertilizer will remain in the soil, thereby damaging the root system, and the branches and leaves will slowly fall off.

Measures: Flush the soil with plenty of water to dilute the fertility in the soil, let the excess fertilizer flow out of the drainage holes of the flowerpot, and then place it in a cool and ventilated place to allow the soil to dry again. If the situation is serious, you need to remove the roots, rinse them with water, dry them, trim the damaged roots, and then change the soil and replant them.
