Solution:(1) Solanaceae plants are susceptible to disease, pay attention to observation. (2) Check whether the temperature is too high > 30 ℃, and it is easy to be infected with viral diseases. If the temperature is too high, reduce the temperature appropriately.(3) Spray antiviral agents. (4) Treatment of diseased plants (the virus is contagious). (5) Disinfection of the tools used. Tools such as scissors, flower pots, etc. that have come into contact with diseased plants

6. Why does the leaf edge of my plant suddenly wilt and dry up?
Symptoms: The leaf margins of the plant are wilted and dry, like burnt. Reason: 1. Check whether the concentration of nutrient solution is too high when adding. 2. After the nutrient solution is added, the plant absorbs water too quickly, resulting in an increase in the concentration of the aqueous solution. Solution: (1) Take out the plant, rinse the roots of the plant gently with water, add enough water to the hydroponic box, and put the plant back. (2) Add water in time after adding the nutrient solution.
