How do asparagus leaves turn yellow in summer?

Many people like asparagus, which has a taste of literati and gives people a very elegant feeling. It is different from ordinary bamboo, with thinner leaves and more lush branches and leaves. Although small in size, it has a high face value. Some people like to use it to make bonsai with some scenery, which is not only beautiful, but also has a strong decorative effect.

Although asparagus grows vigorously, it is not easy to raise, especially the leaves, which are prone to problems. If these problems cannot be solved, maintenance will be more difficult. Today, I want to talk to you about several common phenomena and their causes in the growth of asparagus. Only when you know it clearly can you raise it well.

Situation 1: dry tip

Asparagus leaves are very slender, and the top is easy to turn yellow, which is usually caused by three reasons. The first reason is poor ventilation, because it is a lush plant and needs better air permeability to make every leaf grow well; The second reason is water shortage. Asparagus likes humid environment, and once it encounters dry season, it is easy to dry up. Therefore, it is necessary to water regularly and spray water fog in time; The third reason is iron deficiency, because it is a green leaf plant and needs more iron to keep its branches and leaves green.

Scene 2: Yellow leaves

Anyone who has raised asparagus knows that asparagus is prone to produce yellow leaves and large areas of yellow leaves, which are mainly caused by two reasons. The first reason is that it is a shade-loving plant, so the light is too strong.

It must be placed in a place with astigmatism to grow well. Once exposed to too strong light, the leaves will turn yellow. The second reason is that there is something wrong with the root system, which leads to the yellowing of leaves, because the growth of leaves is nourished by the root system. Once the root system is damaged, the branches and leaves can't grow to the best state. In most cases, the roots may rot due to watering and other reasons. At this time, the roots must be dug out, trimmed and disinfected, and then replanted to slowly recover.

Scene 3: Fallen leaves

Asparagus leaves are quite dense. When it is in a good growth state, the leaves are lush and grow very strong. But when the growth state is not good, there will be serious defoliation. I often see some yellow leaves beside the flowerpot, and sometimes even fall to baldness.

Don't worry about such a situation, because one of the reasons is the natural metabolism of plants. Only when the old leaves fall can new leaves grow, and they can grow again after being cut. Another reason may be the phenomenon of fat damage caused by excessive fertilization. At this time, it is necessary to dilute the fertilizer in time to alleviate it.
