Common diseases of Aglaonema and their prevention and treatment

Diseases of the Aglaonema schreberi - Chlorosis

Chlorosis is a common disease of Aglaonema. When chlorosis occurs, the leaves will turn green and yellow. There are many reasons for the chlorosis of Aglaonema, which may be due to iron deficiency or other reasons. Generally, during breeding, it is necessary to strengthen management and apply fertilizers reasonably to treat the chlorosis.

Diseases of the golden plate - leaf spot

Leaf spot disease of Aglaonema mostly occurs in summer, mainly harming the leaves, causing spots to appear on the leaves and continue to expand, and eventually even causing the leaves to wither.

Leaf spot disease on Aglaonema is mostly caused by pathogens, whose spores are spread by wind and rain. Generally, Aglaonema is prone to disease in high temperature, hot and humid environment. In terms of management, attention should be paid to strengthening ventilation, applying more organic fertilizer, and destroying the withered leaves of the Aglaonema in time.

If leaf spot occurs, you can spray some carbendazim solution for treatment.

Diseases of the Aglaonema scabra - Sooty mold disease

Sooty mold disease is a very harmful disease, which is generally caused by bacteria. The pathogen can overwinter on diseased leaves or be spread by pests and rain, and is prone to breakout in the hot and rainy seasons of summer and autumn. Sooty mold disease can harm the leaves and branches of the Aglaonema plant. When white mold occurs, it is necessary to remove the mold in time and spray some carbendazim solution for prevention and control.

Diseases of the Aglaonema odorifera - Anthracnose

Anthracnose of Aglaonema can harm the leaf petioles and fruit stalks, causing spots to appear. When anthracnose occurs, it is necessary to promptly cut off the diseased branches and leaves, or carry out chemical control and spray the pesticides in time. Two pesticides can be used for cross-spraying.
