How to deal with root rot of honeysuckle

1. Apply fertilizer appropriately

Reason: Do not fertilize too frequently. If excessive fertilizer is applied, yellow leaves will appear, and in severe cases, root rot will occur. The concentration of fertilizer should not be too high. Excessive fertilization will not only affect its growth, but also cause root rot.

Solution: Reduce the frequency of fertilization and the amount of fertilizer applied. You can apply organic fertilizer or general chemical fertilizer. It is best to apply fertilizer in spring and autumn. When repotting, you can apply an appropriate amount of base fertilizer, but not too much.

2. Change water in time

Reason: Hydroponic honeysuckle is prone to root rot. If the roots are soaked in water for a long time, the leaves and roots will easily rot. Poor water quality will also cause root rot.

Solution: Change the water regularly. Don’t wait until there are a lot of impurities in the water. Once you find yellow leaves, change the water in time and observe the water condition frequently.

3. Prevention and control of pests and diseases

Reason: If you do not pay attention to prevention, diseases and pests will occur. Diseases and pests will not only harm its leaves, but also attack the roots of honeysuckle. Once the roots are attacked by diseases and pests, it will cause root rot.

Solution: Take timely measures. You can use pesticides to spray regularly. Pay attention to preventing the occurrence of diseases and pests. Apply appropriate amounts of fertilizer to increase its disease resistance to avoid secondary infection.
