Cycads have yellow leaves in spring, which may be caused by problems in winter maintenance. Generally, there are two conditions that can cause the leaves of Cycas to turn yellow.
First of all, in winter, when the soil humidity is not appropriate, it will have adverse effects. Generally, the lack of water causes the soil to be too dry. If it is too dry for a long time, the leaves of Cycas will turn yellow and even scorch in spring.
Secondly, when cultivating Cycas indoors, it may suffer from cold wind, or the plants may be frozen, which may be caused by the rapid drop of indoor temperature or the sudden move of Cycas indoors. This is also one of the reasons that cause the leaves of Cycas to turn yellow and scorch.
When breeding Cycas in winter, we should control watering, but we can't make it too dry for a long time. The temperature must be kept in a suitable range, not too low
In addition, there is also a reason that Cycads in the spring, early basin change. Generally in the spring in March /April when the basin, at this time cycads are actually in dormancy period, when the basin may be subject to freezing damage, or plant damage, which will lead to yellow leaves.
At this time, the injured leaves of Cycas need to be cut off in time, and the water and fertilizer management should be strengthened, so that the leaves can grow again. In general, Cycads in May when the basin is better, conducive to its growth.
