1. Pot soil selectionWhen choosing potting soil, you should first choose a loose, breathable and permeable substrate. For example, peat mixed with perlite, peat mixed with pine needles, moss, etc. Use organic fertilizer as base fertilizer. 2. Water appropriatelyKeep the soil moist, but not waterlogged, as waterlogging is the main cause of root rot. Pay attention to observe. If water does not seep in for a long time after watering, it means that the soil in the pot has been used for a long time and its density has increased. The soil should be changed quickly to avoid root rot. Once root rot occurs, you can knock out the soil in the pot and loosen it, rinse the roots with clean water, cut off the rotten roots, and try to keep the intact parts. 3. Prune, disinfect, repot and change soilWhen the root rot of the plant is serious, take the following measures: Remove the plant from the pot, clean the soil around the roots, remove the rotten parts of the roots, soak the cut ends and remaining roots in 2‰ potassium permanganate solution for 10 minutes, dry them, then coat the cut ends with wood ash and put them back in the pot. The potting soil must be disinfected. You can water the potting soil thoroughly with boiling water and let it cool before use. When re-potting, press the rhizomes firmly, water thoroughly, place in a shaded place, cover with film, keep the temperature at around 20℃, and new roots will grow in about 20 days. |
