Excessive watering: Excessive watering during cultivation will cause yellow leaves of gardenias. At this time, you need to take it out of the pot, cut off the yellow leaves and rotten roots, and then replant it. Inappropriate flower soil: The flower soil in which it is raised is not breathable enough or is too alkaline, which can also cause yellow leaves. At this time, it should be replaced with breathable, slightly acidic flower soil. Applying heavy fertilizer: Applying heavy fertilizer will also cause it to develop yellow leaves. At this time, water the flower soil with water to wash away the fertilizer, and then stop fertilizing for maintenance.


Causes and Solutions for Yellow Gardenia Leaves
1. Excessive watering

1. Overwatering

1. Reason: Gardenia likes a moist growing environment, but it cannot grow in soil with stagnant water. If you water it too much during maintenance, it may cause root rot and yellow leaves.

2. Treatment method: First, dig it out from the original flower soil, and use a knife to cut off the yellowed leaves and roots soaked in water. Then, place it in a well-ventilated place to dry, then plant it in new soil with good drainage and maintain it.

2. Flower soil discomfort

1. Reason: It has relatively high requirements for flower soil. If the flower soil used during cultivation is not breathable enough or is too alkaline, it will cause poor growth and yellow leaves.

2. Treatment method: In this case, it needs to be replaced with soil. First prepare some soft, thick, breathable, well-drained and slightly acidic flower soil as the new culture soil. Then take the plants out of the old soil and plant them into new soil.

3. Apply concentrated fertilizer

1. Reason: It likes fat, but is afraid of heavy fat. If the fertilizer is not diluted before fertilizing, overly concentrated fertilizer will damage it and cause it to develop yellow leaves.

2. Treatment method: First water the flower soil with a large amount of water to wash away and dilute the fertilizer. Then stop fertilizing for 15-20 days and wait for it to recover.
