Philodendron Yellow Leaves
Comments (4)First off ditch the Miracle Grow. It's like feeding a diabetic candy. Use a more balanced fertilizer. Better yet don't feed at all right now, let your plant have a rest. I would give the soil a good flush to get the excess salts out of the soil. It does not need to be fed during the winter. I would say you're over watering. Look at my thread on keeping plants healthy through winter. It might help....See MoreYellow spots on Philodendron and droplets :help?
Comments (25)Copying here too for these people to think on as a possible cause (from my post about the same problem): @petrushka you actually just said something that kind of put me on to something else which is a way better problem to have than bacteria. Considering your dew drops... I have those too, but I live in super hot, humid, muggy, northeast Florida, so transpiration is pretty common here. That’s what your “dew drops” are- the plant is transpiring extra water through its leaves (kind of like sweat). The fact that you’re getting it in NY with the same spots makes me think it’s Edema (or oedema)- basically the plants roots are taking up more moisture than it needs, faster than it needs, and it’s causing some rupturing in the leaf cells. This prob has to do with finding the right balance between light, air circulation, soil, or proper nutrition (not having certain nutrients in the soil, or the plant not being to absorb them due to soil ph).... for ME. I think yours might be due to temperature. If it’s cool or cold there and you water with warm or tepid water, the difference in temperature can cause the edema too. Also. If you’re misting or using a humidifier, you prob don’t need to since that would just contribute to the transpiration. Let me know what you think!...See MorePhilodendron Selloum Have Yellow and Brown Wilting Edges :(
Comments (0)Hi! My Selloum started having yellow edges that turned brown until leaves started wilting. I did some reading and thought that I might have overwatered. But it has been more than a week now since my last watering and still, new leaves started to have the yellow brown edges again :( I have already removed about 4 leaves that wilted and there are only 3 leaves left. 2 of them already starting to have yellow and brown edges. I keep the plant near the window but not in direct sunlight i haven’t watered for about a week but the soil is still not dry to touch Please help me. thank you...See MorePhilodendron bright yellow leaves at center of the pot
Comments (8)Your first photo shows a healthy looking plant with one yellow leaf in your hand. The second photo is of one yellow leaf so it would be hard to say anything other than observation from two photos. It could be stress from leaving a nursery, grown under greenhouse conditions and subjected to living in a box for a day or more, and then to a retailer, and finally the buyer. Give it time. Let it adapt to its new home. It may not be happy for a while but either it will succumb or perk up. Do NOT keep it sopping wet and do not let it totally dry out either. If you err on one side, do it on the drier side. Again, moving it outdoors for warm air, bright light, higher humidity may be the ticket to get it what it needs before winter....See More- 6 years ago
