Rui Xiang rotten root, what's going on?

Ruixiang has beautiful flowers and strong fragrance, and it also has the characteristics of enduring shade and liking semi-shade, so it is very suitable for growing indoors as a potted plant, as long as it can provide sufficient scattered light, it will not grow poorly due to lack of light. But the rhizome of Ruixiang is fleshy, so it is easy to have rotten roots. When the roots of Daphne odora are rotten, there are often some bad phenomena, such as yellowing, wilting, shedding and so on. So, what happened to Ruixiang Rangen?

As we all know, succulent plants are also succulent rhizomes, with the characteristics of drought tolerance and water tolerance, so excessive watering is more likely to cause rotten roots. Similarly, Ruixiang is the same. Although it likes to be moist, it is not resistant to water. Excessive watering will still cause rotten roots, especially in the case of poor environmental ventilation and relatively high temperature.

The situation of rotting roots caused by excessive watering of Daphne is the same as that of many flowers and plants, so people are usually more cautious in watering. But in addition to improper watering can easily lead to rotten roots, there may be other reasons! For example, fertilization, if we use fertilizer improperly, especially if the concentration is too high, it is also easier to cause rotten roots. After all, the root system of Daphne odora is fleshy, and under the stimulation of thick fertilizer, it will burn out the root system of the plant.

Not only the direct application of excessive concentrated fertilizer is easy to cause rotten roots, sometimes we use organic fertilizer that has not been fermented, and it is also easier to cause rotten roots. Because there is no fermented organic fertilizer buried in the root of the plant, especially if it is too close to the root, the organic fertilizer will release a lot of heat during fermentation, which can easily burn out the root system of the plant, so it will also lead to rotting root.

Of course, sometimes we are very normal in the management of water and fertilizer, and the light and temperature are guaranteed, but rotting roots can still happen. What's going on? As we all know, Ruixiang generally needs to change the pot after 2-3 years, but if the root of the plant is injured inadvertently in the process of changing the basin and does not carry out sterilization and disinfection in time, it is easy to get infected when it comes to water and fertilizer, so it is also easier to cause rotten roots.

Therefore, in the process of protecting Ruixiang, we must strictly follow the scientific method to manage it. It not only requires sufficient light, suitable temperature and smooth ventilation under the maintenance environment, but also requires humidity to be satisfied, watering should be timely and not excessive, so as to "see dry and wet", and fertilization should be reasonable, especially to control the concentration. If Daphne is cultivated in this way, the plant will not have rotten roots.
