What should I do if the leaves of gardenia turn yellow and the flower buds turn black?

1. Solution

1. Apply less fertilizer: If you apply too much fertilizer to gardenia, it will not be able to absorb it and the root system will be easily burned, and the leaves will turn yellow. At this time, you can add more water to allow the fertilizer to flow away as quickly as possible and let it take a while.

2. Water more often: If you don’t remember to water the plant regularly, the plant will be in a state of water shortage for a long time and its leaves will always turn yellow. Water it regularly so that it can grow in a slightly humid environment, and spray water appropriately when the air is dry.

3. Open doors and windows more often: The plant needs a ventilated and brightly lit environment to grow. If you don’t open the windows, the stuffy environment will cause the leaves to turn yellow. It is necessary to open doors and windows more often so that the plants can breathe fresh air.

2. What to do if the flower buds turn black

If the flower bud turns black, it should be trimmed as soon as possible, otherwise it will accelerate nutrient consumption. After pruning, it will grow new flower buds, but you should pay attention to changing the maintenance method. If you don't water it properly or the temperature is too low, the flower buds may turn black. You should make appropriate changes based on the actual situation, such as controlling the amount of water or raising the temperature in time.
