How to prevent root rot

If we want to prevent the rotting roots of cutting branches, we should pay attention to the treatment of branches, the selection of soil, the control of temperature, the control of watering and so on. The branches should be disinfected and dried, and the loose and breathable soil should be selected for cutting. the temperature is stable between 15-25 degrees Celsius, less watering in the early stage, and water replenishment with spray.

How to prevent rotting roots from cutting branches

1. Branch treatment

If you want to prevent the rotting roots of the cutting branches, the first step is to select the appropriate branches and deal with them properly. We should select mature and healthy branches, cut the wound smoothly, disinfect and sterilize the wound with carbendazim solution, and ventilate and dry in the semi-shade, which can reduce the rotting rate.

2. Soil selection

To prevent rotting roots, we should also start from the soil. The soil needs to choose to use loose, porous, ventilated sandy fertilizer fertile soil, we can use perlite, sand carbon soil and humus and other mixed preparation, such soil will not accumulate water, can greatly reduce the probability of root rot caused by stagnant water.

3. Temperature control

Cutting is best selected in spring and autumn, so the temperature at this time is relatively close to the best growth temperature of cutting branches, that is, between the so-called temperature range of 15-25 degrees Celsius, branches can grow and develop better at this temperature. avoid the decay of branches caused by high temperature.

4. Watering control

The biggest reason for the rotting root phenomenon of cutting branches is due to the water imbalance. After we cut the plants, the branches will not survive until 15 days later, so we should not water too many times during this period, as long as the soil is slightly moist, and if the air is too dry, we can also use spray to humidify.
