Magnolia tree leaves turning yellow

Doodlehome
9 years ago

Hello all, I was hoping someone could help me out.
We planted a magnolia tree about 4 months ago and it was doing great. This week however, suddenly a lot of the leaves are turning yellow. Just to give context - the tree is watered 3 times a week for 8 minutes with our sprinkler system, which had been enough in the past.
I looked closely at the tree yesterday and there seem to be a lot of ants in it. I sprayed it with a pest control spray, but the yellowing continued today. I'm not sure if the problem is the season change, and the tree is naturally responding to fall or if we're doing something wrong. Help, we don't want to loose him and hope to take action before it's too late.
