Flower coal smoke disease: the diseased branches and leaves should be cleaned in time after the disease onset, and sprayed with Carbendazim and baumead sulfur mixture. Rotten disease: remove rotten parts in time.

symptom

Blight is a disease caused by fungi, which mainly damages the leaves of Gardenia jasminoides. At the onset of the disease, round spots with a diameter of 2-4cm will appear in the plant, the color of which is yellow brown, and many small black spots will appear on the edge of the leaves.

If the plants turn yellow seriously, they can be sprayed once a week, but the spraying concentration should be controlled to avoid burning roots. After a period of time, the leaves will gradually turn green and return to normal.

In order to avoid the plant yellowing, we can spray 4-5 ferrous sulfate solution during the growth period of Gardenia jasminoides Ellis from April to August every year.
