Life and death of house plants (Part 2)

February 13th, 2008

Always there is certain percentage of plants which are just “unlucky”… The mortality percentage among the plants which have been grown not outdoors, but in artificial conditions of a hothouse, is especially high. In such “incubator” their immune system is weakened, and plants can hardly cope with the smallest stresses - whether it is the change of humidity, illumination, transportation or change of habitual position to the source of illumination. However, even healthy and strong plants, in outward appearance, sometimes perish without obvious reasons.

It is necessary to remember that plants also have “character”, “temperament” and different will to live. You may get such pessimistic specimen, which no way wants to adapt to new conditions - let even a difference in temperature makes a few degrees, and instead of the bright sun, it is temporarily put in a shadow…

To distinguish signs of completely various “diseases” of plants, plant-grower should be very attentive, as many of them sometimes are externally similar.
