Cause analysis and control methods for celery petiole cracking
Celery petiole cracking mainly shows as the stem base splitting open together with the petiole. The first cause of cracking is boron deficiency; the second is growth being hindered under low temperature and drought conditions. In addition, sudden high temperature and high humidity, with the plant absorbing too much water, cause the tissue to fill with water rapidly, which can also cause cracking. Control methods: first, apply...
