Can the fortune tree be saved if its trunk becomes soft?

1. Can a tree trunk that has become soft be saved?

It can be saved, and if the condition is not too bad, it can be well cared for.

2. How to rescue

1. The main reason why the trunk becomes soft is that the roots of the plant are necrotic, so you need to cut off the bad parts of the roots with a sharper knife. If there are many necrotic parts, you need to clean them all up.

2. Do not plant the pruned roots in a hurry. Rinse the roots with clean water first. Before that, it is best to apply some medicine for sterilization and disinfection. You can use medicine such as thiophanate-methyl, and then plant it after treatment.

3. This situation is probably caused by too much water. You need to replenish water appropriately. You can water part of the plant first and then part of it to avoid waterlogging in the pot. If there is continuous rainfall, it needs to be moved back indoors for maintenance.

4. After completing all the steps, it needs to be kept in a place with light for growth, but it should not be exposed to particularly stimulating light. It is best to expose it to a softer light. If it is allowed to grow under relatively glaring light for a long time, its condition will be aggravated and the plant will be beyond saving.
