Many friends who grow flowers will keep a Christmas cactus at home. Because the leaves of this flower are very similar to the crabs we usually see, it is named after this. It is a plant of the cactus family. It is also relatively drought-resistant, but some friends found that the leaves of this drought-resistant flower suddenly wilt. How to deal with this? What to do if the leaves of Christmas cactus wiltIf your Christmas cactus was in very good condition before, including in summer, and suddenly becomes soft, you need to check whether its root system is rotten. The root system has lost its absorption function, and its leaves will gradually wilt due to water loss. So you must check the root system. This is the safest way. Or it may be due to excessive watering, which causes root rot. These must be treated by repotting and checking the root system. In the final analysis, it is nothing more than these situations. Lack of water or lack of nutrients will cause its leaves to become soft. If you don't water or fertilize for a long time. Its leaves wilt, just water it and fertilize it, and it will recover quickly, but sudden wilt is caused by root rot! Why do the leaves of Christmas cactus wilt?We know that plants also have metabolism, and they need to keep their metabolism in a dynamic balance. For example, the water absorbed by the root system is in dynamic balance with the transpiration of the entire plant and its own growth needs to maintain the healthy growth of the plant. If this balance is broken and the water supply is insufficient to meet the demand, the plant will protect itself, causing some leaves to wilt and fall off, thereby reducing the need for water. In addition, if the environment is not suitable for the growth of Christmas cactus, the metabolism of organic matter is unbalanced, which also causes the stem segments to become soft or even fall off. A careful analysis can be divided into two states: physiological and pathological. Will the leaves of Christmas cactus wilt in summer?The answer is yes. Summer is the dormant period of Christmas cactus. Many flower-growing friends believe that plants need water in summer. The climate is dry in summer, so they need to increase the amount of water for the plants. This is a misunderstanding. Not all plants are like this. Christmas cactus is a plant that is in its growth period in summer. If you water it too much, it will not only stop growing, but also cause its leaves to bend. At this time, the leaves will become soft. We need to move it away from an environment with strong light and keep it cool and ventilated as much as possible so that it can spend a stable summer. Long-term sunlight exposure, coupled with seasonal dormancy, will easily cause the leaves to become soft. |
