How to save asparagus fern from root rot

1. Reduce watering

Reason: If you water asparagus fern too much or too frequently, water will easily accumulate. Long-term water accumulation will cause root rot.

Solution: Control the amount of watering and do not water too much. Excessive watering will cause water accumulation. When rotten roots are found, remove them in time, cut off the rotten roots and replant.

2. Reduce fertilization

Reason: Excessive or frequent fertilization of asparagus fern will cause root rot.

Solution: Reduce the amount of fertilizer, apply it in moderation, and do not apply it too frequently. Just apply appropriate diluted nitrogen fertilizer.

3. Increase the temperature

Reason: The temperature is generally low in winter, and extremely low in some areas. When the temperature is low, it is easy to be damaged by frost, which can easily lead to root rot.

Solution: Increase the temperature appropriately in winter, it is best to keep the temperature at 5-10℃, or directly grow it indoors.

4. Change the pot in time

Reason: If the pot is not changed for a long time, the roots of asparagus fern will fill the pot, and water will accumulate after a long time. Once water accumulates, it will easily cause root rot.

Solution: Change the pot every 2-3 years, which can not only prevent root rot, but also promote its growth.
