Why the cactus can die

Health and beauty in any plant are inseparably linked. If the favourite cactus looks good not so as earlier, it is alarming sign - the plant can die.

Instruction

1. Basic reasons for various diseases and uglinesses accompanying them at cacti only three: it is the wrong mode and inept, negligent care, infection with wreckers and, at last, various diseases. The cactus can die as a result of its wrong device on wintering. The warm wintering, watering and lack of light weaken plant and do not allow it to resist wreckers and diseases. If to send too small cactus to cold wintering, it can ruin too it as, perhaps, he still has not enough to transfer forces long drought. The soil of improper structure very often is cause of death of all grades of cacti. These plants prefer the poor air-permeable soils half consisting of coarse quartz sand or vermiculite with addition of small stones. On fertile soil the plant will increase green material and roots instead of prickles, and as a result will decay from uneven development from within.

2. Many cacti perish because that in the winter they keep in the warm and water, but not their smaller quantity perishes from dry contents in the spring and in the summer. There is opinion that cacti need constant drought, and beginners are afraid to ruin plant excessive watering. As a result on the hottest and sunny days at the height of growth period the cacti do not receive moisture and not only do not add during the summer in growth and volume, but also dry out and decrease, as during the wintering, losing roots from heat. As a result wintering these plants cannot transfer the first as dry completely. The most hardy and old copies at such address can worry year, and for the second summer they still can be saved abundant watering. Such copies completely lose root system in year and from the slightest push drop out of the capacity where sit without signs of growth and hints on blossoming. If dry contents continues, also they perish.

3. Widespread error is insufficient purity at cultivation and the maintenance of cacti. The mold is very dangerous to these plants any sort therefore pallets and cacti need to be washed as often as possible. On trunk stalk of cacti are their ustyitsa through which the plant breathes. Ustyits at cacti a little they also open only at night therefore in warm flying weather they need absolutely daily spraying which would wash away from them dust. Cacti often are ill and perish after change, it is connected with the fact that the damaged roots begin to water at once. The fast carrying out of the replaced plant to the direct sun also does not add to it health. The sudden carrying out in the sun after the wintering without gradual accustoming can become in the spring cause of death of cactus, especially young. Burns spoil cactus and deprive of it the burned part of skin of breath, but if in due time to take measures for restoration of cactus, it will recover. If to leave already burned plant in the sun for day, most likely, the cactus will die.
