What to do if Monstera root rots

1. Causes

1. The main reason is that too much water was given to it during maintenance, causing its roots to be blocked by water and unable to breathe normally, causing the roots to slowly rot and die.

2. Another major reason is that the fertilizer is used too densely and applied too often, so that the roots are filled with nutrients and cannot breathe, which can also cause the plant roots to rot.

2. How to solve it

1. When growing plants, you must manage water well. Don't lose sight of the big picture for the small. If you are not sure about the amount of watering, it is better to water half first and then the other half. This way you can reduce waterlogging.

2. If the roots have already rotted, take out the roots of the plant immediately, clean the soil around the roots, trim off the damaged parts, apply bactericidal disinfectant on the wounds, and replant after it has dried.

3. If you accidentally apply a lot of heavy fertilizer, you can use water to buffer it and dilute the fertilizer. However, if there is too much water, you cannot use water to add fertilizer. The soil of the plants needs to be replaced.
