What to do about Black Prince Black Rot

reason

Summer is the peak season for black rot of succulents. Many flower lovers who grow succulents have to watch their Black Prince rot but are powerless to do anything about it. The following editor will analyze the causes of black rot of Black Prince.

Reduced immunity

Just like humans, plants that are healthy, strong, and have strong immunity are generally less likely to get sick. However, when immunity decreases, they are more susceptible to infection by various viruses and fungi. To prevent black rot in succulents, you must keep your succulents healthy and strong from the internal perspective.

Wet environment

This is unavoidable in summer. Once the environment is humid, a large number of bacteria will breed. In a good temperature and humidity environment overnight, fungi can reproduce thousands of offspring, creating a numerical advantage for invading fleshy plants.

What to do about Black Prince Black Rot

Pay attention to the ventilation and heat dissipation of the potting soil

The stuffy potting soil not only creates conditions for the reproduction of Fusarium oxysporum, but also reduces the resistance of the roots. Especially after watering and being exposed to the sun, the temperature of the roots in the soil soars.

Carbendazim root soak

The resistance of succulents during the acclimatization period is very weak. If there is Fusarium oxysporum in the soil at this time, it is easy to get sick, which can be treated with carbendazim. If you find something wrong with the succulents early, it is very effective to irrigate the roots with carbendazim, the sooner the better. If you find that part of the succulent has black rot, the sooner you cut it off the better. Once it is necrotic, it cannot be cured. The necrotic part will also become a culture medium for fungi, multiplying a large number of fungi.

Cutting and grafting

For black rot that leaves are left, it is recommended to cut off the head, break it off and re-graft it.
