We all make rookie mistakes when it comes to monsoon gardening. From overwatering to unaddressed drainage issues, here's how you get it all right. Keep scrolling to learn more!
Yellowing leaves are one of the most noticeable signs of overwatering. When a plant's soil remains too wet, it makes it difficult for the plant to absorb nutrients.
If the soil is too wet the leaves appear unusually soft, limp or mushy, excess moisture could be the problem.
Check whether the pot has proper drainage holes and make sure they are not blocked.
Make sure to remove affected leaves when necessary. This improves airflow around the plant and allows the soil to dry out before watering again.
One of the more serious signs of overwatering is rotting around the roots or lower stem. Affected roots may appear dark and soft rather than firm and healthy.
