How to judge the rotten root of tea plum and how to do it?

In view of these problems, how to distinguish and deal with the rotten root of tea plum is explained below.

How to judge the rotten roots of tea plum 1. The leaves are few and drooping.

The root system and crown of a plant are in a state of balance, and the root system will be as developed as the crown is luxuriant. So, when we see that the leaves of the plant are rare, the leaves are not glossy, and the leaves are drooping, we have to think that there may be something wrong with the roots.

Factors causing root rot of tea plum 1. Improper selection of soil in flowerpot

When we choose the flowerpot for the tea plum, we should choose the flowerpot with good air permeability and suitable diameter, so that the camellia can have enough space to grow and the root can breathe and stretch. Generally choose tile basin, purple sand basin is better, porcelain basin is not suitable, because it is not breathable enough. If the camellias are grown in airtight porcelain pots or flowerpots that are too small, the roots will rot because they can't stretch or breathe.

2. Improper watering of tea plum

If you water a lot of tea plum, there will be stagnant water in the flowerpot, which can not be drained, which is very dangerous. The key to watering is to look at the potted soil to water. A lot of stagnant water can easily lead to rotten roots of camellias.

What about the rotten roots of tea plum? 1. Dig out the rotten roots, cut them and disinfect them.

First dig out the camellias, wash the roots clean, if the roots rot, then cut off all the rotten roots. The roots should be disinfected after pruning, and then replanted. When replanting, you can use new soil. It is recommended to use a mixture of red soil and sand. Water immediately after replanting.

2. Camellias are replanted.

Most of the rotten roots of camellias are caused by the high humidity and impermeability of the potted soil for a long time, and the best way is to change the soil and re-cultivate it. Treating it with plain soil is like doing a new cuttage to let it grow roots again and leave a small number of leaves (cut off the terminal bud of each branch and remove the old and unhealthy leaves. There are only 1-2 leaves per branch) in order to make the circulatory system of the plant work normally.
