Can you cut off the root of the heart to understand these ways to prevent diseases?

Although the ornamental value of this succulent plant is very high, like Hongzhiyu, Yan Sunhui and other succulent varieties, it is also easier to grow air roots when the roots are unable to absorb the nutrients and water needed for growth. this will not only reduce the ornamental value of potted plants, but also affect the normal growth of plants. So, can the gas root of the second girl's heart be cut off?

If we directly cut off the air root from the plant without other treatment, it will not work, and after cutting the air root, the plant will hang up quickly. Because the long air root of B female heart can not get the nutrients and water needed for growth from the basin soil through the root system, the air root can get a limited amount of nutrients and water from the air to maintain its survival.

If we just cut off the air root without other remedial treatment, the plant will not be able to absorb water and nutrients through the main root, but also lose the opportunity to get water and nutrients from the air, so the plant will naturally hang up faster. If we don't cut off these air roots, at least it can get a small amount of water and nutrients from the air to survive for a while.

Of course, the rhizome of the second female heart is still good, and there is no consolidation in the basin soil, so its air root is mainly caused by lack of water. So, in this case, we just need to water it thoroughly. After the main root of the plant returns to its normal absorbing capacity, the air root will gradually wilt and fall off, and we don't have to worry about it at all.

However, if the hardening of the basin soil affects the respiration and watering infiltration of the root system, and the plant can not get the water needed for growth and grow air root, then we need to change the basin and soil in time. At this time, it is necessary to cut off the air root, which is decided according to personal preference, which can usually be cut off or retained.

If the second female heart not only has rotten roots, but also dries up the roots at the same time, then the air roots growing outside the dry parts are generally not recommended to be cut off. We can cut off the rotten part along the stem in order not to cut off the broken part, then keep the healthy part of the upper part and replant it in the pot after drying the root for 2-3 days.

Because the plant has no main root but only air root, if the air root is retained and replanted, the plant can also absorb nutrients and water in the air through air root. In this case, it is easier to survive than planting without main root and air root. Of course, we can also cut off the air root together with the rhizome of the plant, and the plant will still survive, but it may take a little longer.

Therefore, for the second female heart can be cut off, mainly according to our personal needs and preferences to decide, because this problem is no longer an urgent need to solve. The most important thing is how to remedy the air root after the emergence of the plant, not whether or not to retain the air root. From an ornamental point of view, retaining the air root is naturally not beautiful, but if you consider it from the point of view of the basin, it is often easier to survive.
