Cactus grows crooked - plant growth characteristicsAll plants have the characteristic of growing towards light, especially cacti that like warmth and sunlight. When the cactus grows, one side of the plant is exposed to sunlight for a long time. As it grows, it will obviously tilt towards the side that is exposed to light, and the cactus will grow crooked. When you find that the cactus is obviously growing towards one side, you can turn the flowerpot 180° to change the uneven light reception for the plant. By rotating, the plant can slowly regain its upright position. It should be noted that after a period of time, in order to prevent the cactus from growing crooked again, the flowerpot needs to be rotated again. Cactus grows crooked - soil problemWhen a cactus grows, when the plant grows very tall, it tends to be top-heavy. If there is a problem with the soil at this time, such as the soil cannot support it or the soil at the roots begins to loosen, it will cause the plant to tilt. At this time, you need to check whether the soil is loose. If the soil is loose, you need to compact the soil and straighten the plant. After the plant is straightened, you can set up a support next to the sphere and place some pebbles on the soil. There is a chance to repot. Cactus grows crooked - root rotIf the cactus grows crooked, you need to check the growth of the roots in time. If the roots are rotten or the lower part of the stem is rotten, the cactus will easily grow crooked. When this happens, timely measures must be taken. When the situation is mild, you can improve the growth environment and increase ventilation. You can also remove the rotten parts, disinfect and dry the plants, and replant them. If the situation is serious, you can only use cuttings or grafting for propagation. |
