The oranges at this time are really delicious! However, Huahua also wants to remind everyone that although oranges are delicious, eating too much can cause you to get angry.

Friends who like to eat oranges have also started to pay attention to growing oranges at home. Although they are not fruit trees, you can also raise a pot of kumquats! Huahua heard from the flower seller that kumquats have a beautiful meaning of good luck and good luck! If you are interested, you can give breeding a try.

However, recently, many flower friends have sent private messages to Huahua saying that the leaves of the kumquats they cultivated at home have fallen off. They don’t know the reason, so they quickly come over and ask Huahua. Okay, today Huahua will tell you why the leaves of kumquats fall off, and what should be done?

According to experience, a large part of the reason why kumquats lose leaves is because of temperature. Flower lovers in the south may not have experienced the problem of kumquat leaves falling off. On the contrary, this situation often occurs in the north. The north is relatively cold in winter, and it is normal for leaves to fall off in winter, so generally speaking, don't worry, new branches and buds will grow up in spring.

In winter, you should pay attention to the insulation measures for kumquats. It is best not to go below 0 degrees Celsius, and to control the moisture. After all, the light in winter is not as good as the light in summer, and the evaporation function will not be too strong.

If the temperature factor is excluded, for example, if the leaves do not fall off during winter, then it is very likely that it is not a natural phenomenon, but a disease condition in kumquats. The reason for the disease in kumquats is nothing more than surrounding environmental factors and root system factors.

We need to judge where the problem is based on the growth habits of kumquats. Kumquats are shade-tolerant plants, but they also need a certain amount of light, otherwise the leaves will turn yellow. Furthermore, kumquats are not intolerant to waterlogging. When watering, be sure to pay attention to the amount of watering to avoid letting the soil of the kumquat tree become too wet, which may cause root rot.

Especially for friends in the south, you should pay more attention to the amount of watering. If you water too much, and the air in the south is relatively humid, it is easy to cause problems with the roots of the plants. Everyone should pay attention.

After finding out the cause, observe the phenomenon of leaf falling. If it is slightly falling, we'd better change the method of plant care appropriately. If we don't know where the problem is, we can Try cultivating kumquats in a well-lit and ventilated place for a while.

If the leaves fall very severely, it will be more obvious whether it is the roots or the environment. If the branches have dried up, they are basically dead.

The above is Huahua’s summary of why kumquat leaves fall. Do you know?
