Dishui Guanyin took root a few days after planting
As a star variety among indoor green plants, Dishui Guanyin is deeply loved for its elegant leaf shape and air-purifying function. However, many novices often encounter root problems during the cultivation process. This article will systematically analyze the rooting cycle and emergency treatment plans for rotten roots to help you easily cultivate healthy plants. Detailed explanation of the Rooting Cycle of Dishui Guanyin. Normal rooting time range Healthy seedlings can germinate in a temperature range of 18-25℃ and a humidity environment of 60%. White new roots can usually be seen in 3-5 days. If the ambient temperature is below 15 ° C or the substrate is poorly drained, the rooting cycle may be extended to 7-10 days. Four key elements to promoting roots 1. Substrate formula: Mix coconut bran + perlite + leaf soil in a ratio of 3:2:1. Humidity control: No water accumulation in the surface soil during micro-tides 3. Lighting management: Avoid direct light in scattered light environments 4. Nutrient supply: Suspension of fertilization during the rooting period. Three-level emergency system for disease identification and treatment. When the leaves are found to be wilting and the stem base is soft, immediately stop the water and start the pot. Use disinfectant scissors to cut off along the top 2 cm of the rotten area to retain healthy milky white root systems. Deep sterilization operations prepare 500 times carbendazim solution, soak the entire plant for 15 minutes, and then dry in the shade. Severe infections can be treated with potassium permanganate 1:2000 solution, and pay attention to wearing protective gloves. The scientific rejuvenation process uses breathable containers such as red pottery pots, and a 3cm ceramsite drainage layer is laid on the bottom. After planting, place it in a ventilated and cool place to slow seedlings for 2 weeks, and gradually see light after new leaves germinate. The long-term root maintenance strategy recommends using bamboo sticks to measure soil moisture every month, and applying water-soluble fertilizers diluted 1000 times every 20 days in spring and autumn. Regularly rotate the flowerpot to ensure uniform light reception and replace new soil every spring.
By accurately controlling the ratio of water and fertilizer and maintaining environmental ventilation, 90% of root problems can be effectively prevented. Bearing in mind the principle of "better work than waterlogging" and combined with regular observation, we will surely be able to make the dripping Guanyin appear in her best condition.
