Is it OK to apply potassium permanganate directly? The rotten roots of the unicorn palm are overwate

The unicorn palm, also known as the jade unicorn, belongs to the succulent plant of the Euphorbiaceae family, and its sap is highly toxic, so wear gloves and wash your hands in time when in contact with it. Although folklore has the effect of calming the house and warding off evil spirits, it is best cultivated in a garden and avoided long-term direct contact. The unicorn palm belongs to the band-like variant of the overlord whip, and its growth habits are basically the same as the overlord whip, which prefers sunny, warm and dry environments, and is not tolerant to severe cold.

The unicorn palm can tolerate drought and does not like stagnant water, and the rotten roots are mostly due to excessive watering or clayey and impermeable soil.

The branches of the unicorn palm are fleshy stems, mostly flattened fan-shaped or cockscomb-shaped, with short black spines, and green long spoon-shaped leaves at the top of the branches. The cultivation of unicorn palm is suitable for the use of loose and breathable sandy loam soil or humus soil with a small amount of limestone, and the watering follows the principle of not drying and watering, and watering is watered thoroughly. When there is a rotten root or rotten stem in the unicorn palm, you can use a sharp knife to cut off the rotten part, rinse off the colloidal mucus, soak the carbendazim solution for 20 minutes, air dry the wound, and then re-cut the hair roots.

On the question of whether potassium permanganate can be applied directly to plant wounds:

Potassium permanganate is indeed a commonly used external fungicide, but it is generally not directly dry coated, and can be diluted with 1000 ml of water according to 1 gram of potassium permanganate before use.

If there is no potassium permanganate or other fungicides at home, you can also use direct dry application of plant ash to heal the wound, and the effect is also very good.

Other issues that need to be paid attention to in the maintenance of unicorn palms:

In addition to proper soil and watering, sufficient light should also be maintained during the growth period, so as not to grow due to lack of sunlight, resulting in its comb-shaped fleshy stems completely becoming erect columnar, and the leaves are too lush and the ornamental is reduced.

The unicorn palm does not like to be exposed to the sun, and needs proper shade in summer to avoid direct sunlight for a long time; In winter, it is not tolerant to severe cold, so it is necessary to water sparingly, keep the potting soil dry, and control the ambient temperature above 5 to avoid frostbite.

It's not because there is too much glue, but because the soil is too wet to breed some bacteria, so it will make the roots rot, but you can't apply potassium permanganate directly, you should dilute potassium permanganate.

No, apply it directly, because the concentration is too high and the flower will burn to death, at this time you can change the pot for it, add some dry soil to the same, and dry its roots, and then bury it in the soil, and bask in the sun more.

It cannot be used directly, and must be diluted with water in a certain proportion. This can be due to overwatering or insect infestation. We can start by reducing the amount of watering to observe.

The unicorn is overwatered.

If the unicorn overwaters it frequently, it will cause it to overgrow, which will not only make the plant beautiful but also detrimental to its healthy growth. Too much water and not treated in time will kill the unicorn. Generally speaking, too much water will cause the plant to grow white, that is, the palm of the hand will become cylindrical, reducing the ornamental value.

Remedy: After the unicorn is overwatered, the plant must be placed in a ventilated environment. You can always open the backup window to let in some air. Usually you can loosen the soil frequently to ventilate the soil and let the water evaporate as soon as possible.

Kirin watering points.

The amount of watering. The unicorn grows most vigorously in summer and autumn, but because the plant itself is drought tolerant, don't water it too much. You can water Qingxing according to the principle of watering after it suddenly dries. 2、

Watering frequency. Generally, the unicorn needs to be watered once every 2-3 days, but the amount of watering should not be too large. Moreover, when the unicorn is first planted, it needs to be watered once to strengthen the roots. 3、

What to water. If the unicorn wants it to grow vigorously, it can be watered with rice washing water and tap water, or tap water, and ferrous sulfate can be applied every 20 days to make its leaves oilier and greener.

If you water too much, the roots will definitely rot. It is recommended to pull the flowers out of the pot, remove the rotten roots, put on some flower disinfectant, dry for a week, and then bury them in the sand pot for a month, and then move them into the pot when the roots have germinated. Remember to water less and the pot will be dry and wet.

Appropriate more flower nutrient solution will grow and fly fast. Theoretically, the golden unicorn only grows 10-15 cm a year, and it should be no problem to raise 20---25 cm. The golden unicorn in my house grows an average of 20---25 cm a year.

Hope it helps!

Kirin palm rotten root treatment method:

First, take the plant out of the pot with a soil ball and put it in water to wash the soil. If there are still more than half of the intact root system, the damaged root system can be cut off, and then the root system (including the rhizome in the soil part) is soaked in potassium permanganate solution for a while, and then placed in the shade to dry the attached liquid medicine, and re-pot it with humus soil (steam in the pot for one hour before use).

If the unicorn flowers are watered too much nutrient solution and cause them to rot, the following measures can be taken to save them:

1.Stop watering: First, stop watering the unicorn flowers and let the soil start to dry to prevent too much moisture from causing root rot.

2.Drainage: To help drain the roots by improving the drainage of the soil, the pot can be placed on the pot seat or gravel above the drainage hole to promote the outflow of excess water.

3.Prune the damaged part: If part of the leaf or stem of the unicorn flower becomes soft or rotten, you can use clean, sharp scissors to cut off the damaged part while making sure the cut is hygienic.

4.Ventilation: Place unicorns in a well-ventilated area to avoid moisture retention, which can help reduce germ growth and root rot.

5.Temperature control: Ensuring that the unicorn is in the right ambient temperature and not exposed to too much heat or too cold can help promote plant healing.

6.Pay attention to fertilization: During the recovery process of unicorn flowers, temporarily stop fertilization to avoid further overnutrition.

7.Observe and adjust: Closely observe the recovery of unicorn flowers, and adjust the above measures in a timely manner according to the actual situation.
