How to deal with strawberry root rot

1. Treatment methods

1. Prevent and control root rot

Reason: Low temperature and high soil humidity can easily cause root rot, which can harm the roots of strawberries and affect their growth.

Solution: Spray with pesticides for prevention and control, and disinfect the soil. Normally, make sure the soil is not too moist, prevent the occurrence of root rot in advance, apply fertilizer in appropriate amounts, improve the disease resistance of strawberries, and avoid secondary infection that may lead to root rot.

2. Prevention and control of root-knot nematodes

Reason: After strawberries are attacked by root-knot nematodes, root knots of varying sizes will grow on the roots, which will continue to spread throughout the roots, causing the entire roots to rot.

Solution: You can use Yinghui nematicide mixed with water and apply it. The prevention and control effect is very good. You can use it to apply it before planting strawberries, which can effectively prevent the occurrence of root-knot nematodes.

2. Preventive measures

Choose disease-free seedlings, cultivate disease-resistant varieties, fertilize them with fully decomposed organic fertilizer, and cover them with a layer of ground mill. This can effectively reduce humidity and prevent root rot. Do not flood water when watering. Apply carbendazim before sowing. If strawberries with rotten roots are found, the diseased plants should be dug out in time and sprayed with pesticides for prevention and control.
