What to do if the baby's breath has rotten roots

1. Reduce watering

Reason: If the amount of watering is not well controlled, the baby's breath will not be able to absorb too much water. In addition, the potting soil has poor drainage, which will easily cause water accumulation. In addition, if the rainy season is too long, excessive water accumulation will also cause root rot.

Solution: Take drainage measures in time, reduce the amount of watering, and control the frequency of watering to avoid water accumulation. Especially in the rainy season, it is best to move it indoors for cultivation. If it is exposed to rain, take drainage measures as soon as possible.

2. Replace the soil

Reason: The soil has poor air permeability, and the roots of baby's breath cannot breathe, which will cause rot. Soil with poor drainage is prone to water accumulation, and when water accumulates, the roots are prone to rot.

Solution: Replace it with suitable soil. It is best to use loose soil with good drainage and air permeability. It will not only help the growth of baby's breath, but also prevent root rot.

3. Pest Control

Reason: If it is grown outdoors, it is easy to be infested with pests. Once the pests bite off the roots of the baby's breath, or wounds appear, once bacteria breed, it will cause root rot.

Solution: Spray pests with pesticides in time, and fertilize it appropriately to increase its ability to resist diseases and insects. If the roots rot, remove the rotten parts in time, disinfect them and then replant them.
