What is the reason for the yellowing of the leaves of the copper coin grass? What should I do if the edges of the copper coin grass turn yellow?

1. Too much light

The pennywort cannot be exposed to direct sunlight during its growth process, otherwise its leaves will easily turn yellow. It usually needs appropriate shade to allow it to receive a certain amount of scattered light. It should be noted that this plant cannot be deprived of light at all. If there is no light at all, it will not be able to carry out normal photosynthesis and will not be able to produce nutrients.

2. Unsuitable soil

If the leaves of the soil-grown pennywort turn yellow, it may be because the soil is not suitable. If the soil is too sticky, the roots will not be able to breathe well and water will not be able to penetrate, which will cause the plant to grow poorly and the leaves will turn yellow. In this case, the soil needs to be replaced in time, replanted with loose and fertile sandy loam, and the drainage capacity needs to be strengthened.

3. Improper watering

The pennywort prefers a humid environment, but if there is too much water and water accumulates, it will cause the roots to rot and the leaves to turn yellow. Normally, you should control the amount of water you use. The soil in the pot can be kept moist during the growing season, and kept drier in winter. If there is accumulated water, drain it out in time and place it in a ventilated place to accelerate the evaporation of water.

4. Lack of nutrients

The growth of pennywort requires certain nutrients. If not enough fertilizer is applied, the leaves of the plant will turn yellow. Generally, during the peak growth period, top dressing should be done every 2-3 weeks, and the amount of fertilizer should not be too large to avoid fertilizer damage. If it is hydroponics, you can add nutrient solution to the water, which can also help the plant grow.
