What about the silver-edged spider plant? There are many benefits to raising spider plants.

As we all know, there are many kinds of hanging orchids, and the silver-edged hanging orchids we are talking about today is one of them.

Recently, many people have complained about why the silver-edged orchid we raise has rotted its roots for no reason. How to solve this? So is it a rotten root for no reason? Or is it a rotten root that can be traced? The following editor will answer for you one by one.

So if we want to understand the cause of its rotten roots, we first need to know its living habits. Silver-edged orchids like to live in a warm and humid environment and need to be placed indoors in seasons such as summer and winter. Because it likes moist soil, it is more conducive to its growth, so watering needs to be carried out every day, fertilizing every half a month, and changing the basin once a year.

On the issue of watering, we all know that if the amount of water is too little, it will dry up and lead to withered leaves, but too much water will lead to rotting roots. Watering too often leads to too much moisture, which leads to rotting roots. Too much water will make the soil too wet, and the roots buried in the soil will lack oxygen.

Second, the reason for rotting roots may be due to too little light. Because we basically put bonsai indoors, especially in winter and summer. However, if it is placed indoors for a long time, it will not be exposed to light for a short time, which will have an impact on photosynthesis and affect its survival. If the water evaporates slowly, there will be stagnant water, resulting in rotting roots.

When the silver-edged orchid has rotten roots, it can be solved in these ways. In the case of root rot is not very serious, if it is caused by too much watering, then reduce the amount of water. From watering once a day to watering once every two days. Let it be exposed to the sun. In this way, the situation of stagnant water will gradually improve, and the phenomenon of rotten roots will also improve.

For the root rot phenomenon is more serious, less watering, more sun may not be solved, then it is necessary to give it a nutrient infusion. Transfusion of nutrient solution should also pay attention to the right amount, too much may be counterproductive. Of course, we should also pay attention to cut off those rotten roots in time to prevent the germs produced by the rotten roots and infect other good ones. After the rotten root is cut off, we have to change the soil for it. Only in this way can it continue to grow and develop healthily.

Silver-edged hanging orchid, widely loved by people, has a high ornamental value, self-cultivation, but also can absorb nano-particles. Of course, he also has some medicinal value, such as internal administration can cool cough, promoting blood circulation and removing stasis, etc., external use can treat abscesses, such as hemorrhoids.
