How to Revive a Withered Rose
An introduction to the related knowledge of reviving a withered rose for netizens, detailed introduction is as follows:
In fact, during the maintenance of potted plants, many times, the withering of potted plants is due to our poor management of some minor details, which leads to the weakening of the potted seedlings and eventually complete withering.
I believe many of our friends have placed a saucer under the pot as shown in the picture above, using a saucer to keep it cleaner, as it can catch the water and soil flowing out of the pot. Yes, the saucer does have such a function, but if used incorrectly, it can directly cause the potted plant to rot and wither. Why is that? Let's take a look at the direct relationship between the pot and the saucer.
Those who have raised orchids know best that 90% of orchid pots have legs.
Because orchids like higher humidity, when I am raising them, I often place a saucer under them, keeping a little water in the saucer to increase the local air humidity. The legs of the pot keep the bottom of the pot away from the saucer, so the potting soil does not come into contact with the water in the saucer and does not absorb the water from the saucer.
How to Revive a Withered Rose
Let's take another look at our Galon pot, you can see that the bottom of the pot is almost flat. If we add a saucer to it, then part of the pot bottom will be completely sunken in the saucer.
In this case, if there is water in the saucer, the bottom potting soil and roots are essentially soaked in water, and as the potting soil loses moisture, it will also absorb water from the saucer. This causes the potting soil to never dry out, insufficient oxygen in the soil, and over time, the rose will rot its roots.
The reason for the withering of the rose mentioned at the beginning is largely due to the saucer. As shown in the picture, the potting soil is very moist, and there is always water in the saucer.
So, can't the saucer be used anymore?
