How to judge succulent plant rotten roots? Look at the color. If there are several pots of flowers and trees of the same kind, put them together, if they are found that the leaves of a certain plant are green and dull, gray, or the leaves of the plant are wilting, or the lower leaves are not yellow and fall off in a large number in the season of leaf change, it indicates that the vegetative fibrous roots of the plant have rotted due to ponding, fertilization or excessive drought.

In summer and autumn season, the flowers and trees growing normally are irrigated once a day in fine weather, and the pot soil is inspected at the same time the next day. If the pot soil is dry and white, the root system is normal. If the pot soil is dry and white, it is still wet, indicating that the root system of the plant has rotted. If it is still wet after 2~3 days, it indicates that the root system of the plant has mostly rotted.

Decay takes many forms, and it's often too late when you discover it. Always be on the lookout for discolored areas on plants, as well as soft, mushy stems and leaves. Some insects such as mealybugs also cause rot, especially root mealybugs. The wounds caused by these pests as they feed on plant sap can cause fungal infections.

Wounds and severely damaged root systems should be filled with clean wet sand and covered with clean cultivation soil to promote the germination of new roots at the wound.

The treatment method of mild fleshy rotten roots is to control water quickly and blow air first. Excessive watering is the main reason for fleshy rotten roots. Put the fleshy pot on a well-ventilated flower stand to allow moisture to seep out as soon as possible. At the same time, use an electric fan to strengthen air circulation and blow it 24 hours a day. After the soil surface of the flowerpot is dry, use a spatula to deeply loosen the soil and turn up the still damp soil below. If the sun is good at this time, you can take out the meat to bask in the sun. If there is no sun, you can use an electric fan to blow it again. After the soil on the surface is dry, loosen the soil. After repeating this several times, let the humidity of the flowerpot decrease.
