First, the reason for reducing watering: Clivia's roots are fleshy roots, which are not resistant to long-term water and humidity. If watering is too frequent at ordinary times, water will accumulate in the culture soil, and the roots will not get enough oxygen, resulting in rotten roots.

Solution: If it is not serious, you can control the amount and frequency of watering first, and then carry out normal maintenance after it resumes growth.

Second, the reason for updating the pot soil: if it is given too thick fertilizer or not decomposed fertilizer, it may cause root rot.

Solution: The culture soil needs to be updated. Take the flower seedlings out of the original flowerpot, put them in a cool and ventilated place, air them for one or two days, and cut off the rotten roots with clean hands. Apply some charcoal powder or sulfur powder to the wound, then replant it with clean culture soil, and then maintain it normally until its new roots grow completely.

Third, the reason for changing to other soil: If the nutrient soil used is not breathable, it is easy to make the roots rot without oxygen. If the soil is too raw or ripe, or the soil contains substances that are not completely decomposed, it will generate heat when watering and fertilizing at ordinary times, which will hurt the roots and produce rotten roots. If the nutrient soil is sticky, has high water content and is not easy to evaporate, bacteria will invade the plant with the wound, leading to rotten roots.

Solution: Replace Clivia with soft, thick, breathable and non-decomposed nutrient soil.
