Blackening of leaves is one of the most common problems, along with lack of flowering and yellowing of leaves, that owners of spathiphyllum have to deal with.
An expert of the online publication Belnovosti, agronomist, landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh spoke about the reasons for this unpleasant phenomenon, as well as what should be done in such a situation.
There are many factors that could influence such a course of events.
Among them are improper watering, namely excess moisture, as well as hypothermia, when the plant is on a too cold windowsill or is exposed to drafts.
Excessively dry indoor air can also influence the appearance of black leaves.
Considering the fact that the discolored tissue will not recover, in order to return the flower to its decorative appearance, you can cut off the blackened areas.
The main thing is to carry out the procedure as carefully as possible so as not to touch the green tissues, otherwise they will also begin to dry out.
For a quick recovery, eradicate the cause of the blackening of the leaves and move the spathiphyllum to a brighter window. Alternatively, use phytolamps for additional lighting.
In turn, in such a matter as root restoration, you can use the help of "Zircon".
