What to do if the leaves of the double-line arrowroot are curled

reason

Too much or too little water

The double-line arrowroot is sensitive to water. If there is too little water or insufficient humidity in the air, the leaves of the double-line arrowroot will curl up. If there is a lack of water during the growth period of new leaves, the dry air will make it difficult for the new leaves to unfold, the leaf edges will become scorched and yellow, and the leaves will become small and dull, seriously affecting the ornamental effect.

However, if you water too much and water accumulates seriously in the flowerpot, the leaves of the double-line arrowroot will curl, the roots will rot, and even the plant will die.

Direct sunlight

The double-line arrowroot prefers a semi-shady environment. Excessive light or direct sunlight will cause the leaves of the double-line arrowroot to curl.

Invasion of pests and diseases

When the double-line arrowroot is attacked by pathogens, the leaves will gradually curl and wither, and in severe cases the leaves will fall off.

what to do

Spray water frequently during the growing season

The leaves of the double-line arrowroot are relatively large and water evaporates quickly, so it should be watered in time. It is best to spray it, and the amount of water should be gradually increased as the number of new leaves increases.

At the same time, increase the air humidity to keep the relative humidity between 85% and 90%.

Maintain room temperature

When growing the double-line arrowroot indoors, you need to understand that it prefers a warm and humid environment. Keep the ambient temperature at 20℃-30℃ and do not place it outdoors in winter.

Avoid direct sunlight

The double-line arrowroot prefers a semi-shaded environment, so it should be grown in a volume environment.

However, excessive lack of light will weaken the growth of the plant, so you can place the double-line arrowroot on the balcony, windowsill, etc. every once in a while to absorb scattered light.

Pest and disease control

As for pests and diseases, in daily maintenance work, we must pay attention to maintaining air circulation and soil permeability and drainage. Once signs of pests and diseases are found, immediately find out the cause and prescribe the right medicine.
