What does growing water mean?
Green plant maintenance is most afraid of water accumulation, but many novice flower lovers do not have enough knowledge of the harm of water accumulation in flower cultivation. Soaking plant roots in stagnant water for a long time is like a person being pressed in water and unable to breathe. It will not only cause the leaves to yellow and fall off, but may also cause fatal root rot. Mastering prevention and control techniques so that plants can truly drink enough water without "drowning" is the key to scientific conservation. Three major fatal hazards of plant water, root suffocation triggers a chain reaction, resulting in a sudden drop in soil oxygen content. Plant roots are forced to breathe anaerobically, and the produced harmful substances such as ethanol will corrode root hair. After the root system is damaged, it is unable to absorb (S-Y) points, and the plant appears warning signs such as yellow leaves and fallen leaves. The spread of fungal diseases is accelerating. The humid environment is a hotbed for fungi to breed. Pathogens such as Fusarium can spread rapidly through rotten roots. The originally healthy roots will show brown corruption symptoms within 3-5 days. The vicious cycle of plant dehydration and accumulation of water will instead cause physiological drought. The damaged roots cannot transport water, resulting in continuous dehydration of the upper part of the plant. This contradictory phenomenon is often mistaken for lack of water and continued watering, exacerbating root rot. Four-step first-aid plant water accumulation tips to improve soil ventilation structure mix peat soil, perlite and pine scale in a ratio of 4:3:3, and add 5% rice hull carbon to adjust the pH value. Periodically use bamboo sticks to poke holes in the soil surface to maintain the soil granular structure. A scientific drainage system is built and a 3-cm-thick volcanic stone drainage layer is laid on the bottom of the flowerpot, and is matched with a green mountain basin with ventilation holes on the side walls. The use of ceramsite paving can increase the evaporation area and adjust the humidity with water-absorbing cotton rope. The golden rule of environmental regulation immediately move water to a ventilated and scattered light place, and use electric fans to enhance air circulation. Maintain 50% environmental humidity in spring and autumn, and can be appropriately increased to 60% in summer. Standard process for emergency treatment. After removing the pots and drying the roots for 24 hours, soak them in 800 times carbendazim solution for 30 minutes. Trim the rotten root system until white tissue appears, replace it with new soil, bag it to moisturize and slow down the seedlings.
Prevention is better than treatment. In daily maintenance, it is recommended to use a transparent seedling pot to observe the root system and master the watering principle of "seeing dry, seeing wet". Regularly add EM bacteria to improve the soil microbial environment, allowing plants to truly breathe freely.
