What to do if the leaves of evergreen turn yellow

1. Proper watering

1. Reason: Excessive watering will cause water accumulation in the pot, affecting the plant's breathing and nutrient absorption. Excessive watering will cause the plant to lack water. Both of these situations will cause the leaves of the evergreen to turn yellow.

2. Solution: Watering is only needed about three times a month. Do not water too much. Just make sure the soil is moist and there is no water accumulation in the pot. Spray water on the branches and leaves of the evergreen plant more often, twice in the morning and evening.

2. Appropriate weight gain

1. Reason: The nutrients in the soil alone cannot meet the growth needs of evergreen. If it is not fertilized for a long time, its leaves will become sick and turn yellow due to lack of nutrients.

2. Solution: Make sure to apply fertilizer twice a month. Be careful not to apply too much fertilizer to avoid burning the roots.

3. Avoid high temperatures

1. Reason: The leaves of evergreen are very fragile, strong light can easily burn the branches and leaves, and strong light exposure can cause its leaves to turn yellow.

2. Solution: Dieffenbachia needs light to grow, so you only need to avoid direct sunlight when the sun is strong at noon, and no treatment is required at other times.

4. Eliminate pests

1. Reason: The branches of the evergreen plant are fat and the leaves are tender, which makes it easy to be infected by insect pests. The most obvious sign of infection by insect pests is the yellowing of leaves.

2. Solution: First observe where the plant is infected by pests. If the branches and leaves are infected, just spray it with insecticide. If there are insects in the soil, change the soil and disinfect the potting soil to avoid secondary infection.
