What causes orchid leaves to turn yellow? How to deal with it

1. Too much light

1. Reason: Except for a few species such as Cymbidium, most orchids do not like strong light. If they are placed in a place with very high light intensity during cultivation, their leaves will be sunburned by the strong light and turn yellow.

2. Treatment method: At this time, you should first use scissors to cut off the leaves on the plant that have turned completely yellow. Then, move it to a well-ventilated area without strong light, or use a shade net to shade it. After a while, it will recover.

2. The temperature is too low

1. Reason: Orchids like warmth and are not particularly cold-resistant. If the plant is kept in a place with extremely low temperatures for a long time, it will grow poorly and its leaves will turn yellow.

2. Treatment method: First move the orchid to a place with a temperature between 18-25℃, then appropriately increase the time it is exposed to light, and wait for it to recover.

3. Lack of water

1. Reason: If you do not water the orchid for a long time when caring for it, it will lack water and its leaves may turn yellow.

2. Treatment method: At this time, water it in time. First water thoroughly once, completely irrigate the flower soil, but do not allow water to accumulate in the soil. Then increase the frequency of watering appropriately to replenish it with moisture.
