When growing plants, you must observe them often, because some problems that look tiny, such as blackened stems and curled leaves, may kill your plant overnight if you ignore them and do nothing. Today Huahua will tell you about 3 rather dangerous kinds of branches!

If this kind of branch appears on your kalanchoe, cut it off right away!

As everyone knows, kalanchoes die easily in summer and autumn, and the kalanchoes that die basically all share one common feature: blackened branches. These branches are black rot, the number one culprit that kills kalanchoes!

If black rot branches appear on your kalanchoe, how should you deal with them?

1. As soon as you see black rot branches on your kalanchoe, cut them off right away with sharp, sterilized scissors. When cutting, remove all the black branches cleanly and make sure the cut surface of the remaining branches is green and healthy.

2. If the main stem of the kalanchoe has turned black, there is no other way: you can only cut off the healthy branches and take cuttings from them.

3. For cuttings, basically use the tender shoots from the top, let them dry for half a day, then insert them into loose, clean soil, water thoroughly and put them in a place with bright, indirect light. They will root in about 2 weeks.

How can you prevent black rot branches from appearing on kalanchoes?

1. When watering kalanchoes normally, be sure not to water when the soil is not dry. Water thoroughly only when the pot feels very light when you lift it, or simply use the soak method.

2. At this time of year, it is still very hot at noon, so choose morning or evening for watering. In addition, open the windows more for ventilation, and kalanchoes will be less prone to black rot!

If this kind of branch appears on your rose, cut it off right away!

The most annoying thing about growing roses is pests and diseases, especially powdery mildew, which comes back again and again, is extremely contagious, and is hard to cure. This means we need to cut off the affected branches promptly in the early stages of the disease to prevent it from spreading.

If powdery mildew branches appear on your rose, how should you deal with them?

1. If your rose has leaves that are wrinkled, curled, or whitened, cut them off immediately. This is powdery mildew, and if not treated in time, it will quickly spread to the whole plant.

2. To deal with powdery mildew, we can use rice vinegar or Dettol disinfectant, diluted 50 times with clean water, and spray the whole plant, including branches and both sides of the leaves.

3. If you have carbendazim or chlorothalonil at home, you can also dilute them 1000 times with water and spray the whole plant while also watering the roots, once every 10 days, for 1 month!

How can you prevent powdery mildew branches from appearing on roses?

1. More ventilation, more ventilation, more ventilation. This is crucial and can, to a certain extent, prevent powdery mildew from appearing.

2. Even if there is no powdery mildew for now, everyone should still spray carbendazim solution at least once a month to sterilize and disinfect, preventing powdery mildew from occurring.

If this kind of branch appears on your succulent, chop it off right away!

Black rot on branches is the number one killer of succulents. If you see an old succulent with a blackened stem, you need to be on high alert, otherwise it can die in an instant!

2. When caring for succulents normally, be sure to observe their stems and branches. If they appear blackened or soft, it may be black rot.

3. Find a clean art knife or scissors, hold it over a flame to sterilize it, then cut away the blackened stems and branches cleanly. The head cut off from the top and the stem left below both have wounds, so put them in a ventilated, shady place to dry.

4. After the wounds have dried, plant the cut-off head into soil. Do not water it or the remaining lower stem for half a month. Put them in a place with bright, indirect light, and they will quickly root and sprout.

Fellow plant lovers, if these kinds of branches appear on your plants,

cut them off right away,

don't wait until only the pot is left before you regret it!
