Description

Main diseases and pests

Common threats include fungal pathogens such as root rot, which typically occur if the soil remains waterlogged without proper aeration. Maintaining a balance between soil moisture and air circulation around the root zone is the most effective preventative measure against these diseases.

Insects like spider mites and mealybugs represent the main pest threats, especially when the plant is kept in indoor greenhouse conditions. Integrated pest management, focusing on early detection and physical removal of infested leaves, is recommended to ensure the plant's long-term health.
