Reason: if the amount of water is too large, the basin soil will be moist for a long time, it is easy to make its roots lack oxygen, but also cause root rot.

Solution: loosen the soil properly and put it in a ventilated and bright place, usually reduce the amount of water, and control the watering frequency, properly reduce the amount of water when the temperature is low in winter, and increase watering appropriately when the temperature is high in summer, but there can be no stagnant water.

Reason: fertilizing too frequently or applying too much fertilizer will cause nutrients to accumulate in the roots, and the roots will not be able to breathe, thus causing rotting roots.

Solution: the amount of fertilizer should be well controlled, do not apply too much fertilizer solution, do not fertilize too frequently, and apply fertilizer properly once during the growth period.
