What is the reason for the root rot of green radish and how to remedy it

1. Reasons

1. The temperature is too low: It likes to grow in a warm environment, and the temperature is best between 15 and 25 degrees. If it is below 15 degrees, it will cause frost damage and cause root rot if protective measures are not taken in time.

2. Too much watering: Although it likes a humid environment, if the roots are soaked in water for a long time during maintenance, it will not be able to breathe. Over time, the roots will rot due to lack of oxygen.

3. Infection by pathogens: Because it likes a humid environment, it is easy to be infected by diseases. Once infected, it will cause leaf drop and root rot.

4. Excessive fertilization: If you apply fertilizer too frequently during maintenance, or the concentration of the fertilizer applied is too high, the heat will be too high and burn the roots, causing rot.

II. Remedies

Once root rot occurs during maintenance, no matter what the cause is, the plant must be removed from the pot and the damaged roots must be cut off. After that, soak the roots in disinfectant for about half an hour, take them out and dry them. Then prepare new potting soil and replant. During the later maintenance, a warm environment should be provided, watering should not be excessive, and water accumulation is strictly prohibited. You can buy special fertilizers and apply them according to the instructions. In addition, if the disease is found, spray the medicine for treatment in time.
