Watering later

Sansevieria is very drought-resistant, so you don’t need to water it too much, especially now it is winter, watering should be reduced even more, otherwise the water that Sansevieria cannot absorb will accumulate in the potting soil, causing the roots to rot.

Wait until the soil in the pot is completely dry before watering. Remember to use water at the same temperature as room temperature. If it is too cold, it will freeze the roots of the Tiger Piranha. Water slowly and do not water the leaves of the Tiger Piranha. Wait until the water flows out from the small holes under the pot. Then it is watered well.

Money Tree

Why are the leaves of my money tree turning yellow and wilting, the stem becoming soft, and the roots rot... Many flower lovers who come to ask questions about their flowers have similar problems. In fact, the rotten roots of the money tree are the culprit that causes various other symptoms!

Rescue Method

1. Remove the woody stems, do not deal with the roots first, and clean the soil at the bottom.

2. Use scissors to trim the roots and cut off the rotten parts. If the rot is too severe, just cut off all the messy roots and let the money tree continue to take root.

3. If the stem also begins to rot, the rotten part needs to be removed.

4. Place the treated rhizomes into thiophanate-methyl or potassium permanganate solution and soak for 24 hours; or spray the wound with prochlorperazine.

5. Then dry it in a cool and ventilated place and replant it.

Late watering

Watering the money tree is a big problem. Nine out of ten money trees die due to overwatering. To be honest, the watering of the money tree has been mentioned many times. Don’t water if it’s not dry. If you do water it, water it thoroughly. What does dry mean? The surface of the soil in the money tree's pot has turned white. If you move the money tree and it feels light, you can water it.

What does it mean to water thoroughly? It means watering until water flows out from the small holes in the flowerpot. If it does not flow out, you can change the soil. The original soil is not up to standard and is too sticky. Once watered, water will accumulate and the roots of the money tree will 100% rot.

In addition, it is winter now, so the money tree really doesn’t need to be watered too much. If you don’t know how to water it, you can water it every month and water it thoroughly.

This is the end of Huahua’s introduction~
