Description
Root rot occurs when the roots of a plant become waterlogged and begin to decay. This often happens due to overwatering and poor drainage, leading to fungal infections that damage the root system. Symptoms include yellowing leaves, a mushy stem, and stunted growth.
Solution
1. Assess watering habits: Ensure you are not overwatering the plant. Allow the soil to dry out between waterings. 2. Improve drainage: Repot the plant in fresh soil with good drainage properties, such as using a mix of potting soil and perlite. 3. Remove affected roots: Inspect the root system and trim away any mushy or discolored roots to promote new growth.
