1. Check the moisture.
Chrysanthemums have a high requirement for water, and too little or too much water will cause the leaves to wilt. First, make sure that the soil of the chrysanthemum is kept moist, but not overly wet or waterlogged. Before watering, you can touch the surface of the soil with your hands and water it if it feels dry. In summer or in a dry environment, you can increase the frequency of watering.
2. Check the lighting.
Chrysanthemums need plenty of sunlight to grow and bloom properly. If there is not enough light or shade, it can cause the leaves to wilt. When planting chrysanthemums, choose a sunny place and make sure that the chrysanthemums can receive enough sunlight. In the case of insufficient sunlight, grow lights or fluorescent lamps can be used to increase the light intensity and time.
3. Check the fertilizer.
Fertilizer is one of the important factors for the growth of chrysanthemums. If there is not enough or too much fertilizer, it will cause the leaves to wilt. When planting chrysanthemums, it is necessary to choose an appropriate fertilizer and apply it reasonably according to the fertilizer use instructions. During the growing period, organic fertilizers or fertilizers can be applied regularly to meet the nutrients required by the chrysanthemums. But be careful not to over-fertilize the plant so as not to cause damage to the plant.
Fourth, prune properly.
If the chrysanthemum leaves are too lush or have too many dead branches, it will also cause the leaves to wilt. In order to improve the growth of chrysanthemums, proper pruning can be carried out. Prune overly dense branches, dead branches, and diseased branches to increase plant ventilation and light. Prune with healthy shoots to avoid harming healthy tissues. After pruning, the wound can be disinfected with an antiseptic solution to prevent bacterial infection.
5. Pest control.
Pests and diseases are also one of the causes of wilting chrysanthemum leaves. In order to protect the healthy growth of chrysanthemums, the growth of the plants can be checked regularly, and the corresponding prevention and control measures can be found in time.
Biological control methods can be used to control the occurrence and spread of pests and diseases. If chemical agents are required, follow the instructions for use and be aware of safe use.
In short, in order to solve the problem of wilting chrysanthemum leaves, it is necessary to carefully check many aspects such as moisture, light, fertilizer, etc., and take timely measures to adjust and manage. At the same time, it is also necessary to pay attention to measures such as proper pruning and pest control to promote the healthy growth and flowering of chrysanthemums.
