Large-scale drying up and leaf loss: how to save dying plants

Large-scale drying up and leaf loss: how to save dying plants

1. Lack of water

Symptoms: Leaves change color, turn yellow, dry up, and fall off; the soil in the pot becomes dry and water is lost.

Solution

1. Move the plant to a cool and ventilated place

2. Use a watering can to spray water on the leaves to make them fully moist

3. Water the roots of the plants in small amounts, and do not water them thoroughly at once, as this will hinder the plants from absorbing water.

Wait for the soil to absorb it, and water it every half an hour or so until excess water flows out of the outlet of the flowerpot.

4. Move to a cool and ventilated place for 5-7 days, and then move to a sunny place for maintenance after the plant recovers its vitality.

2. Root rot

Symptoms: The soil in the pot turns white, the roots turn black and soft, the leaves become dull and yellow, and fall off in large pieces.

Solution

1. Cut off the rotten roots and disinfect them with carbendazim.

2. Place in a cool and ventilated place to dry.

3. Change the potting soil to one with good air permeability and water it thoroughly.

Frost damage

Symptoms: Leaves shrink or develop brown spots, turn yellow, dry up, or fall off in large pieces.

Solution

1. Move the flowers to a warm, wind-proof, sunny place with a temperature of 5 degrees Celsius.

3. Water the roots of the plants in small amounts, and do not water them thoroughly at once, as this will hinder the plants from absorbing water. Because the plants may be frostbitten, pay attention to the water temperature when watering and use water above 5 degrees.
