Diseases of Chlorophytum comosum

Main diseases of Chlorophytum comosum

Chlorophytum comosum is not easily susceptible to diseases and pests.

If you water too much, the soil in the pot is waterlogged and the ventilation is poor, the roots of the thousand-leaf spider plant will rot. In addition to causing root rot, the thousand-leaf spider plant may also suffer from root rot, which will cause the roots to rot and then endanger the entire plant and cause the thousand-leaf spider plant to die.

Root rot may actually be caused by fungi and nematodes. Root rot is a soil-borne disease. In addition to root rot, it is caused by pollutants, bacteria, pests and other factors in the soil.

Root rot prevention and treatment methods

If root rot occurs due to excessive watering, you should control watering, cut off the rotten roots, and replant. If the root rot is caused by fungi or pests, not only do you need to prune the roots, you also need to replace the soil with fresh, sterilized soil.

Root rot can also be prevented and treated by spraying pesticides.

Pests of Chlorophytum comosum

Main pests of Chlorophytum comosum

If the clusters of Chlorophytum comosum are dense and poorly ventilated, they are easily harmed by scale insects. Scale insects are one of the most common pests on plants. They often gather on branches, leaves, and fruits, feeding on plant sap. In severe cases, they can cause branches to wilt or the entire plant to die.

How to control scale insects

When Chlorophytum comosum is attacked by scale insects, prevention should be the priority. In daily maintenance, we should pay attention to strengthening ventilation and avoiding damage caused by scale insects. If the growth of Chlorophytum comosum is often too long, try to detect and prevent it early. If scale insects occur, spray with 1000-1500 times diluted 50% Marathon Emulsion once every 7 days, and spray 2-3 times in a row.
