Why Are My Leaves Turning Yellow? Find Out and Revive Your Plants with MrGreenIndia!
Are your beautiful garden plants suddenly looking dull with yellow leaves? Don’t worry—this is one of the most common gardening problems, and it usually means your plants are trying to tell you something. Understanding why leaves turn yellow helps you fix the problem quickly and keep your garden green and thriving.
Common Reasons for Yellow Leaves
Yellow leaves can happen for many reasons. Here are the main causes to check:
- Overwatering or Poor Drainage: Too much water makes roots suffocate and rot, causing leaves to yellow and fall.
- Underwatering: Dry soil means the plant can’t get enough nutrients, showing stress as yellow leaves.
- Lack of Nutrients: Plants need essential nutrients like nitrogen, iron, and magnesium. If the soil is poor or unbalanced, leaves lose their green color.
- Pests and Diseases: Insects like aphids or fungal infections can cause yellowing.
- Too Much Sun or Shade: Plants have different sunlight needs—too much direct sun can scorch leaves, while too little light weakens plants.
- Temperature Stress: Sudden changes in temperature or extreme cold can shock plants, turning leaves yellow.
- Natural Aging: Older leaves naturally turn yellow and drop as part of the growth cycle.
