How to Save Rotting Orchid Roots: A Spoonful of a Cheap Remedy Will Help
Just one mistake in care can cause serious consequences for the orchid – from the falling of buds to the death of the flower.
Damage to the roots of an orchid is certain death. To bring the beauty back to life, you need to try.
Root rot is not immediately noticed by gardeners. There is no need to rush to throw out the plant. You can try to revive the orchid without the means from the garden store.
Saving a flower is divided into two stages. First, you need to clean the orchid from the soil, remove the softened or dried base.
Water is collected in a vase. It should settle. Then 1 tablespoon of hydrogen peroxide is added. The orchid is placed in the resulting solution for 5 minutes.
Then the flower is removed from the solution and dried. While the moisture is leaving, new soil is prepared. The orchid should never be planted in old soil, otherwise history will repeat itself.
After drying, replant the plant. You can water the flower, but it is important not to overdo it. In the future, it is also important to ensure that watering is moderate.
