8. Insufficient fertilization - this affects yellowed leaves. Good care: remove the plants from the soil to start, rinse thoroughly under water and transplant into new soil.

For good maintenance of Spatiffilum, I recommend using a citrus fruit consistency. How to do it? To begin with, I take about 150 grams of citrus peels (lemon, orange) and fill it with water. Then I let it brew for about 2 hours, then I filter everything. The indoor plant must be sprayed twice a day.
