How to deal with the rotten roots of money

Artemisia mandshurica is a plant native to eastern Africa, its leaves are thick and neatly arranged, like copper coins, it is more popular in recent years. The leaves of Artemisia mandshurica are graceful, and it is a good foliage plant. Coupled with its auspicious name and certain ability to purify the air, it is planted more and more widely. However, with the continuous growth of the growing population, some problems in the breeding process are becoming more and more common, such as rotten roots. Today, the pro-agricultural network will explain to you how to deal with the problem of money rotten roots.

Before introducing the treatment methods, we still need to understand the causes of rotten roots, and only when we know the reasons can we know the corresponding countermeasures. Pro-agricultural network here for you summed up four points, let's take a specific look at it.

1. Frostbite

Money wood, originally from Africa, is a drought-tolerant and cold-tolerant plant. If the temperature is below 5 ℃ and the basin soil is wet, the young leaves of Artemisia mandshurica are prone to frostbite and collapse, which will cause tuber rot over a long period of time. At this time, you should immediately pour it out of the flowerpot and remove the rotten place with tools. Then apply clean plant ash to the wound, or you can disinfect it with potassium permanganate solution diluted 1000 times, and wait for the wound to dry and plant or change pots. After stopping the water supply, wait until the temperature rises to more than 20 ℃ in the coming spring before resuming the water supply. Pay attention to the water basin and the soil slightly wet.

Second, too little moisture

Money wood is more drought-tolerant, but this does not mean that it does not need water nourishment, any plant needs a certain amount of water to grow well. Usually watering should be decided according to the local climatic factors, just keep the soil slightly moist. If it is really difficult to control the amount of watering, then implement the principle of "no dry, no watering, watering thoroughly".

Third, too much water

Too much water will also cause rotten roots of Artemisia mandshurica. After rotting, take it out of the basin as soon as possible, shake off the soil and remove the rotten roots, put it in a semi-cool place for 2 days, and then replant it. The basin used should not be too large, and the watering should not be too frequent. Keep the basin soil 70% dry and control the watering time flexibly. If the rotten roots are serious, all the persistent soil should be dropped after being removed from the basin, soaked and disinfected with potassium permanganate, then rinsed with clean water and dried until the roots are dried and replanted.

IV. Excessive fertilization

This is also a relatively common reason, many novices immediately after buying plants or changing pots, immediately give money wood fertilizer, or thick fertilizer, so it is easy to lead to money wood rotten roots, because at this time the roots have not yet fully grown, or have just arrived in a new environment, at this time, if you apply thick fertilizer hastily, it will burn the roots of money trees.

These are the reasons and solutions for the rotten roots of money introduced by the pro-agricultural network. I hope it can bring you some help. If you still need to know more about plant breeding methods, you are welcome to pay attention to the pro-agricultural network.
