What is Root Rot in Plants?
Root rot is a sneaky plantt problem that starts below the surface—literally.It happens when roots sit in wet, poorly-drained soil for too long, cutting off their oxygen supply and turning them soft, brown, and mushy.Once rot sets in, it quickly spreads and weakens the plant. The leaves droop, yellow, and drop off.Sounds scary? Don’t worry—it’s treatable if caught early, and even easier to prevent!
