The reason why the side leaves of Clivia rot and how to deal with it

1. Reasons

1. Excessive watering: Its roots are fleshy and difficult to absorb too much water. If too much water is applied, the roots will easily rot and the leaves will rot accordingly. It is also possible that the water was poured into the center of the leaves, which can also cause leaf rot.

2. Too much fertilizer: Fertilizer is applied without considering the growth trend, which makes it difficult for the roots to absorb it, causing irritation and burns, and also affecting the leaves.

3. Infection: If the growing environment is too hot and stuffy, the leaves will rot if they are accidentally infected with diseases.

4. The temperature is too low: It is also possible that the temperature around the growth area is low, so the plant will be frostbitten and the leaves will rot.

2. How to deal with it

1. If only the leaves are rotten, remove the rotten leaves, wash them in clean water, and clean the rotten areas.

2. If you find that the roots have rotted, use a sterilized blade to cut off the rotten part, rinse it with clean water, and then place it in a ventilated and cool place to dry.

3. Prepare the potting soil and expose it to the sun before use to disinfect and sterilize it. Straighten the plant and replant it, compacting the soil so that the roots are in full contact with the soil. After that, pay attention to the maintenance methods, control the application of water and fertilizer, and pay attention to controlling the temperature.
