The five common reasons why azaleas die are poor ventilation, improper lighting, improper watering, improper fertilization and failure to repot. Therefore, when raising rhododendrons, ensure good ventilation and lighting conditions, proper watering and fertilization, and it is best to repot it once a year.
1. Poor ventilation
1. Poor ventilation
If ventilation is poor for a long time, the growth of azalea will be weakened, causing it to suffer from diseases and insect pests such as spider mites and aphids. If the situation is serious, the plant will die. Therefore, you should pay attention to ventilation at ordinary times, and do not leave it in an overly closed place for a long time.
2. Uncomfortable light
Cuckoo The flower needs scattered light, and bright light is enough. If it is exposed to direct sunlight for a long time or is in too much shade for a long time, it will grow poorly, and the plant will die in severe cases. Therefore, it is necessary to improve the lighting conditions and give it bright scattered light.
3. Improper watering
The roots of azaleas are relatively thin and the root system is relatively dense, so the soil needs to be in a moist state. Too dry or too wet will have adverse effects on it. Severe cases can cause death. Therefore, watering should be done from dry to wet, just keep the pot soil moist.
4. Improper fertilization
Cuckoo There are more flowers blooming, the root system is relatively weak, it prefers fertilizer but is afraid of heavy fertilizer. If too much fertilizer is applied at one time or improperly decomposed fertilizer is used, the plant will die. Therefore, fertilize thinly and frequently, and use decomposed fertilizer.
5. No repotting
The root system of azaleas is developed and weak, and excessive flowering consumes too much nutrients, so it needs to be repotted every year, at least every 2-3 years. One pot. If the pot is not changed for a long time, its root system will grow longer and denser, causing a lack of oxygen in the soil and accumulation of harmful substances in the soil, leading to the death of the plant. So it needs to be repotted in time.
