There are many reasons for the rotting roots of impatiens: if it is caused by too much watering, don't water it too often or too often. If the soil is caused by poor permeability, it should be replaced by a soil with good permeability and drainage. If the fertilization concentration is too high, it is necessary to control the amount, fertilization concentration is not too high.

First, too much watering

Reason: too much watering will affect the root growth, but also produce stagnant water, once the emergence of stagnant water rotting roots will inevitably occur.

Solution: watering must be moderate, not excessive or too frequent, especially during the dormancy of impatiens, we must control the amount of watering, wait for the soil to dry before watering.

Second, the soil permeability is poor.

Reason: the poor permeability of the soil will lead to the root can not breathe, unable to absorb nutrients, the root will rot, if there is stagnant water in the basin soil can not be discharged, it will also lead to root rot.

Solution: replace it with soil with good permeability and drainage, which can make its roots breathe normally and drain the stagnant water from the basin soil more quickly.

3. High concentration of fertilizer

Reason: fertilizing impatiens, if the concentration is too high, it will burn the roots, blacken the roots and, in serious cases, cause the death of the whole plant.

Solution: the amount of fertilization should be controlled, and the concentration of fertilizer should not be too high. Thin fertilizer should be applied frequently. If the amount of fertilizer is large, the amount of water should be increased to let the excess fertilizer flow out as soon as possible. After finding rotten roots, you should cut off the rotten roots in time so as not to harm more roots, then disinfect the roots and replant them.
