Let's take a look with the editor!Winter is the season for蟹爪兰 to bud. Many plant enthusiasts have noticed their蟹爪兰 has already produced flower buds. Recently, several plant enthusiasts have commented that their蟹爪lan is not growing healthy, some have leaves that are always limp, and some even have severely wilted leaves. Today, let's analyze the causes of the soft leaves of蟹爪lan and the solutions:1. Branch freeze injury蟹爪lan is a plant that is very sensitive to cold. It needs to be kept indoors during winter. If the environmental temperature drops below 0 degrees, its branches will be frostbitten. Some enthusiasts like to place their蟹爪lan pots near the windowsill, sometimes forgetting to close the window, allowing the cold outdoor air to directly blow on the plant, causing the leaves to freeze. Frosted leaves become limp and wrinkled, and the leaf color also changes.SolutionThe cells of frosted leaves are completely dead and cannot be saved. We can only cut off the frosted leaves and place them in a warm place for re-cultivation. As long as the roots of the蟹爪lan are still alive, and there are unfrozen leaves at the bottom, it will gradually grow new leaves.2. Root rot due to excessive wateringThe leaves of蟹爪lan are succulent leaves that can store a lot of water, and the low temperature in winter slows down the evaporation of water in the pot is slow, so no need to water too much. Some enthusiasts overwater the soil, causing root rot. Rotting roots cannot provide water to the leaves, causing them to wilt.Solution involves cutting off the rotten roots and re-planting in a cool and ventilated place for 1-2 days to dry the root wounds before re-planting in the pot.3. Insufficient nutrients and sunlightTo bud,蟹爪lan needs sunlight and fertilizer. Lack of these can cause the leaves to become soft due to insufficient nutrients.
