  1. Fusarium rot. This disease manifests itself in winter - if brownish-scarlet spots with a pink coating appear on the bulb, then cleaning and processing are necessary.
  2. Bacterial rot. It can destroy all bulbs. Note that it is better to destroy the disease with gloves.
  3. White rot. Soaking in a solution of phytosporin may help.
