How to deal with the yellowing of pumpkin leaves 1, and strictly control water.
Pumpkin leaves turn yellow, which may be caused by too much water during maintenance, resulting in water accumulation in plants and yellowing of leaves. Therefore, it is necessary to strictly control water for pumpkins during later maintenance. It is best to water pumpkins when the soil is dry, soak all the soil, and suspend watering when the soil is wet.
2. Scientific fertilization
Pumpkin leaves turn yellow, or it may be that too much fertilizer is used when fertilizing them, which leads to fertilizer damage to the plants. At this time, it is necessary to water the soil in time to dilute the fertilizer content in the soil, and it is also necessary to loosen the soil for pumpkins and discharge excess water from the soil to avoid water accumulation and rot in the roots of the plants.
3. Loose soil
The leaves of pumpkin turn yellow, which may also be caused by hardening of the planted soil, resulting in damage to the roots of the plant. At this time, it is necessary to replace the pumpkin with fertile and loose soil with good drainage and replant it. In the later maintenance, the soil can be loosened every other month to keep the soil breathable.
4. Keep the light.
In the process of pumpkin growth, leaves will turn yellow when exposed to strong light for a long time. Therefore, when maintaining pumpkins in the later stage, it is necessary to provide them with full-day sunshine in spring and autumn, and only in the morning and shade them in the afternoon when maintaining them in summer.
