Never let this flower get rained on; if you don't move it indoors, the whole pot of leaves will rot
These past few days, it has been raining heavily all over the country, and if you're not careful your home could even get flooded! In such rainy weather, you also need to pay attention to your plants at home, otherwise they might die on you before you know it!
Don't let clivia get rained on; once it gets rained on, the core rots!
Although clivia is fine with the occasional rain, once it runs into continuous overcast and rainy days, you must make sure no water collects in the leaf core, otherwise the core will easily rot.
Solutions:
1. If your clivia gets rained on, quickly dry the water in the leaf core with a tissue, and at the same time move it to a ventilated spot, pour out the accumulated water in the pot, or let the excess water evaporate as quickly as possible.

2. If the core rot is severe, and even the leaves have rotted away, then the only option is to behead the clivia, cutting off all the rotten leaves and the leaf core, and let it sprout new buds again.

Don't let gloxinia get rained on; once it gets rained on, the leaves rot!
Gloxinia leaves have a lot of fine fuzz, and once they accidentally get wet and aren't dealt with in time, the leaves will rot, and over time the whole plant will rot along with them!
Solutions:
1. If the gloxinia leaves accidentally get rained on, quickly put it in a well-ventilated place and let the water on the leaves evaporate. When watering normally, try not to let water touch the leaves; if it accidentally does, just wipe it off in time.

2. If the leaves are severely rotten, find a knife, cut off the rotten leaves, keep the healthy leaves, and insert them into loose, breathable soil; they will soon take root and grow into new gloxinias!
Don't let cactus get rained on; once it gets rained on, the ball rots!
Huahua has been especially fond of cactus lately; not only is it easy to grow, but every time it blooms it can produce dozens of flowers! Moreover, cactus is fairly drought-tolerant, and once too much rain causes water to collect in the pot, plus the temperature rising after the rain, the cactus ends up taking a sauna, and in severe cases the whole ball will rot away!
How to solve it?
1. If the cactus rots from being rained on, find a sterilized knife, cut off the entire rotten ball, then apply some plant ash or carbendazim to the wound, and leave it in a cool place to let the wound dry.

2. When watering cactus normally, it is best to water along the edge of the pot, straight into the soil, and not pour from the top of the cactus, otherwise the ball will easily rot. If it is kept outdoors, getting rained on is fine, but after the rain it must not be in direct sunlight; just move it to a cool place.

Don't let fuzzy succulents get rained on; once they get rained on, they blacken and rot!
Many succulents have fuzz on their leaves; when watering normally, be careful not to get it on the leaves. If they accidentally get rained on, plus the temperature rising after the rain, your succulents immediately turn into boiled meat and will surely die!
How to solve it?
1. If your succulents get rained on, quickly move them to a cool, ventilated place, and absolutely do not expose them to strong sun again, otherwise they will turn to mush and blacken and rot even more easily. You can use a small fan to blow on them so the water evaporates as quickly as possible.
2. If the succulents show black rot, quickly cut off the blackened, rotten part, then soak them in carbendazim for a while, and repot them. If the roots have already rotted, just put them in soil to re-root.
After reading Huahua's introduction,
has everyone learned it?
Huahua suggests that everyone still be cautious,
and prevent trouble before it happens,
don't wait until they die from the rain to regret it!
