FAQ About Indoor Plant Symptom Diagnosis

What are indicators of nutrient deficiencies in indoor plants?
Indicators of nutrient deficiencies in indoor plants include yellowing leaves, poor growth, and leaf drop. Different nutrients exhibit specific symptoms; for example, nitrogen deficiencies often cause yellowing older leaves, while phosphorus deficiencies may result in dark green or purplish leaves. Iron deficiencies can cause chlorosis, where young leaves become pale or yellow but veins remain green. Regularly feeding plants with balanced fertilizer can help prevent deficiencies.
