They are among the most beautiful and beloved flowers in history: our beloved orchids<\/strong> .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whether it is a gift we have received or a personal purchase, orchids<\/strong> are among the most beautiful plants that can decorate our home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But unfortunately, they need some attention<\/strong> and care<\/strong> .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It happens that sometimes our orchids<\/strong> begin to wilt  4> and <\/strong>dry up<\/strong> , even though, apparently, we are following all the rules<\/strong> suitable for their care.<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the reasons may be root rot <\/strong>,<\/strong> a more common phenomenon than expected. what you might think.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let’s find out together what it is and how to fix it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Attention<\/strong> : in case of doubts, uncertainties or perplexities, ask your florist for advice<\/strong> or trusted gardener<\/strong> .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"\/<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Causes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The reasons<\/strong> of root rot <\/strong>can <\/strong> to be essentially three.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Excess water or moisture<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

In almost all cases, rotten roots <\/strong> depend on a cause that is not always easy. to understand: excessive absorption of water<\/strong> .<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This can depend on both watering<\/strong> too much frequent<\/strong> and having left<\/strong> the orchid<\/strong> in water<\/strong> too long if we water it by immersion<\/strong> .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition, sometimes the water becomes <\/strong>stagnated<\/strong> in the saucers<\/strong> which can raise the level of humidity<\/strong> and compromise the normal development of the roots<\/strong> .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

alteration of the terrain<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Another cause may be a change<\/strong> in the composition of the soil<\/strong> .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Many times we use fertilizers<\/strong> or fertilizers<\/strong> that are not specific for these plants for our orchids.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The result is an alteration in the pH<\/strong> of the soil that can sour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And it is precisely the acid earth <\/strong>acid<\/strong> that damages the roots<\/strong> , often leading them to rot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Soil too compact<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This is the rarest hypothesis, but still possible<\/strong> .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When the land<\/strong> used is too compact<\/strong> , it may suffocate the roots<\/strong> preventing the passage of air.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sometimes soil<\/strong> becomes too compact over time after watering it<\/strong> several times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

how to notice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

To know if your orchids really have rotten roots <\/strong> , you can extract them from the < a i=4>vase , clean them from the floor<\/strong> and examine them.<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

If the roots<\/strong> look dark<\/strong> and softer than normal<\/strong> , then they are rotting<\/strong> .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A trick to always have under control the condition of the roots<\/strong> of your orchid<\/strong> .transparent<\/strong>vases <\/strong> is to use <\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This way, you can check if the roots are starting to rot<\/strong> by simply looking through the pot<\/strong> , without having to dig up the plant<\/strong> .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Remedies<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

To prevent<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The most effective remedy is undoubtedly prevention<\/strong> .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can avoid plant rot by avoiding the three different causes and, therefore, paying attention to irrigation<\/strong> ,  .soil <\/strong> used and the compactness of the fertilizers<\/strong> and fertilizers<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

root cut<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If the roots<\/strong> are now rotten<\/strong> , you should continue a procedure<\/strong> precise to save your orchid<\/strong> .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

First you have to soak your <\/strong>plant<\/strong> for one hour<\/strong> approximately, in order to soften the roots<\/strong> and facilitate the operation.<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let it dry and remove the roots<\/strong> from the soil<\/strong> , trying to tear them off with great care  .<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then, remove the last remains of soil<\/strong> by placing the roots under the stream of <\/strong>.water<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile, take the vase and wash it with water and vinegar <\/strong>white<\/strong> to remove  .bacteria<\/strong> and viruses<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

At this point it is time to\u2026 cut!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Take some scissors<\/strong> or shears<\/strong> and cut those roots that appear rotten, dry, hollow or broken.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

NB:<\/strong> before using the scissors<\/strong> and the  scissors<\/strong> , be sure to sterilize them  so as not to compromise the health of your orchid< \/span><\/strong> .<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Disinfect and replant<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

After cutting off the rotten roots, sprinkle cinnamon<\/strong> over the remaining ones, which is a natural antifungal and will prevent residues  Remaining bacterial<\/strong> or fungal<\/strong> affect your plant again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then, put the plant<\/strong> back into the pot<\/strong> original and fill it with soil<\/strong> new .<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pour in the new potting soil<\/strong> very carefully so as not to damage the roots<\/strong>  .<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
