Are your plants drying up in the monsoon? Know important things related to soil, water, and sunlight.

Plants remain green during the monsoon. But sometimes due to some mistakes they start drying and becoming weak. If your plants are also drying, then let's know how you can keep them green.

The monsoon season is very pleasant and soothing. Greenery is also at its peak in this season. As soon as the raindrops fall, the trees and plants get a new life. But sometimes in the rainy season, instead of becoming green, some people's plants start withering or drying. If this is happening with your plants too, then this could be the result of some mistakes.

 

Because many people believe that plants do not need much care during monsoon, but this thinking can prove to be the biggest mistake. In the rainy season, humidity increases, sunlight is less, and the soil gets wet repeatedly. All these also affect the plants. So let us tell you in this article about to which mistakes your plants are drying up and how can you make them green?

 

waterlogging in soil

The most common problem during the rainy season is overwatering. If the soil remains too wet, the roots of the plant start rotting. Therefore, it is important to check the drainage holes in the pots and do not let them fill up. Also, use sandy soil for plants.

Understand the effects of less sunlight

There is less sunlight during monsoon, due to which the plants do not get enough light. Due to this, their photosynthesis starts decreasing and they become weak and start drying. Therefore, during monsoon, keep the plants in a place where there is more sunlight.

Watering at the wrong time

Due to monsoon rains, the plants already get water. Therefore, there is no need to give much water to the plants in this season. Because giving too much water can rot the roots and can also make them weak. Give water only when the soil looks dry.

Not cleaning and harvesting the leaves

During the rainy season, fungal or mold often develops on the leaves. In such a situation, if the leaves are not cut from time to time, then they can completely rot the plant, due to which it also starts drying. Therefore, cut the leaves from time to time or clean them with lukewarm water.

Placing the pot in the wrong place

Humidity in the air increases during monsoon. In such a situation, avoid keeping the plant in a moist place. Keep the pot in an open place so that it gets adequate air and ventilation. This will save it from the risk of fungal infection.
