What's with the rotting roots of impatiens? What shall I do? How to get through the winter safely?
Impatiens, also known as henna, like the sun, afraid of dampness, heat and cold resistance, strong survivability, good adaptability, generally few diseases and insect pests. But domestic impatiens sometimes have rotten roots, so what about the rotting roots of impatiens? What shall I do? How to get through the winter safely?
First, the reasons for the rotting roots of impatiens
1. Too much watering
Too much watering will affect the growth of the roots, but also produce stagnant water, once the emergence of stagnant water rotting roots will inevitably occur.
two。 Soil permeability is poor.
Poor soil permeability 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 rotting roots.
3. High concentration of fertilizer
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.
Second, the solution to the rotting root of impatiens.
1. Watering must be moderate, not excessive or too frequent, especially during the dormancy period of impatiens, the amount of watering must be controlled and the soil should be watered after drying.
two。 To replace it with soil with good permeability and drainage, it can not only make its roots breathe normally, but also drain the stagnant water from the basin soil more quickly.
3. 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. 、
III. Overwintering management of Impatiens balsamina
1. Winter performance
Impatiens is very intolerant to the cold, usually the seeds mature in autumn, and then the whole plant begins to wither gradually. When winter comes, it naturally stops growing completely, and the aboveground also shows a state of withering. That is to say, the impatiens entered the hibernation period for self-protection.
two。 Light management
Impatiens like light, suitable for a warm environment, whether indoor potted or planted in the courtyard, it is best to choose some sunny location. In winter, do not think that your impatiens no longer need to be managed, just put it in a dark place with the flowerpot, this is wrong, even during the dormant period to ensure that impatiens have enough light, so that when winter comes beyond spring, impatiens will still sprout and blossom.
3. Moisture management
The vitality of impatiens is very tenacious, and it doesn't need too much attention in daily management, but it should be paid attention to in winter. Although the light is as abundant as in other seasons, there is no need for moisture. Because the growth of the hibernating impatiens is stagnant, the aboveground parts are completely withered, and only a small amount of water is needed by the roots, so florists must remember not to water too much, either not to water at all, or when the soil in the flowerpot is really very dry. A small amount of water.
Impatiens growing outdoors will wither completely in winter, and the seeds that fall below the following spring may germinate on their own.
