What if the bamboo leaves turn yellow?
Yellowing of leaves caused by excessive fertilization. Although transit bamboo has strong fertilizer tolerance, excessive fertilization will also cause yellowing of leaves. Specifically, the new blade tip appears dry brown, and the old blade tip is dry, browned and falls off. Although the leaves are thick and shiny, most of them are uneven. At this time, fertilization must be stopped, fertilization times should be reduced, and more water should be used.
Leaves turn yellow due to lack of fertilizer. If you don't fertilize regularly and only water or don't change flowerpots for several years, the roots of the transferred bamboo will knot together, leading to malnutrition and yellow leaves. At this time, it is necessary to apply fertilizer in moderation, or change flowerpots and pipe roots.
Turn yellow due to exposure to the sun. Transit bamboo likes humidity and high temperature. If exposed to the sun for a long time, the leaves will turn yellow. Move it back to the shade, and it will be all right after a while.
Yellowing caused by alkaline soil. Transit bamboo likes acidic soil. If the soil is alkaline, its leaves will turn yellow. You can spray it with alum fertilizer and the leaves will be better.
Yellowing of leaves caused by low temperature. The transferred bamboo leaves will turn yellow when the temperature is lower than 10, so the transferred bamboo should be kept warm in winter, and should not be placed outdoors or by the window, but it should also be noted that the temperature should not be too high, which will turn yellow.
Yellowed by drying. Transit bamboo likes humidity. If the soil humidity is too low, it will also cause the leaves of transit bamboo to turn yellow. Pay attention to proper watering at this time, and don't water too much at once. Too wet can also cause the leaves to turn yellow.
Yellowing caused by insufficient light. Although transit bamboos don't like sunshine, green plants still need moderate illumination. If the light is insufficient, the leaves will turn yellow. You can put transit bamboo in a place where the sun is not strong but there is light.
Cultivation method of transit bamboo:
The cultivation method of transit bamboo is basically the same as that of Fu Guizhu, but more efforts are needed in modeling. Transit bamboo likes warm, humid and cool environment. The optimum growth temperature is 20-30℃, so the high temperature season in summer and autumn in the south is very beneficial to its growth. When the temperature is lower than 10℃ for a long time in winter, the transferred bamboo leaves will turn yellow and fall off.
It is best to use tap water or cold boiled water for transporting bamboo in bottles overnight, and change it every 10- 15 days, and only need to pour half and add half each time, otherwise the root system will not adapt. Nutrient solution may lead to rotten roots of transit bamboo, so it is not recommended to add it.
Transit bamboo likes high temperature environment, so the water temperature of breeding should be higher, and the minimum temperature should not be lower than 20 degrees Celsius. The requirement for water quality is also higher, so it is necessary to keep the aquaculture water clean, otherwise root rot will easily occur. You can change the water for the transferred bamboo once a week before it takes root. When changing water, wash the bottom with clear water and clean the culture container.
Many people will encounter the situation that the height of the transferred bamboo they bought does not match the container at home, and they need to cut the roots. Root-cutting is exquisite. The correct method is to cut with a sharp knife (preferably disinfected with alcohol first) half a centimeter below the transferred bamboo joint, because this position is the easiest to take root. When transporting water in bamboo bottles, you should choose healthy plants, and pay attention to the integrity of leaves, straight branches and complete terminal buds.
Cultivation method of transit bamboo:
The key points to be grasped in transporting bamboo in hydroponics are: before putting it into bottles, the leaves at the base of cuttings should be removed, and the base should be cut into a 45-degree oblique mouth with a sharp knife, and the blade should be smooth to increase the absorption area of water and nutrients. Raised in a straight glassware with a water depth of 5 to 10 cm. Change the clean water every 3-4 days, and put a few small pieces of charcoal in it to prevent corrosion. Don't move or change direction for 10 day, and silvery white fibrous roots will grow around 15 day. Stop changing water after the transit bamboo takes root, and replenish it in time after the water is reduced. If the water is changed frequently, the leaves will turn yellow and wither. After rooting, give a small amount of light, drop a small amount of compound nutrient solution, and then apply nutrient solution every 3 weeks.
1. Water quality requirements: it is not suitable to change water after the transferred bamboo takes root, and water can only be added in time after the water evaporates. Changing water frequently can easily lead to yellowing of leaves. Better add well water. Tap water should be stored in a container for one day. Water should be kept clean and fresh. Dirty water, hard water and oil and water should not be used, otherwise the roots will rot easily.
2. Fertilization requirements: In order to prevent bamboo from growing white, do not apply chemical fertilizer. It is best to inject a few drops of brandy into the bottle every three weeks or so, and add a small amount of nutrient solution; You can also use 500 grams of water to dissolve half an aspirin or a VC, and drop a few drops when adding water to keep the leaves green.
3. Avoid wind blowing: Don't put the transfer bamboo near the TV or where air conditioners and electric fans often blow, so as to avoid the tip and edge of the leaves drying up.
