The black or orange spots on the roots are a sign of Par<\/wbr>snip canker. The spots usually occur at the top of the roots. Sometimes the roots rot away. The spots are not so much black, but rather purple.
\nThe fungi survive in the soil and multiply if Par<\/wbr>snip crops are often grown in the same area. Poorly draining soil and a low pH increase the risk of infestation.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row equal_height=”yes”][vc_column width=”1\/3″][vc_custom_heading text=”Where to find” font_container=”tag:h4|text_align:center|color:%23ffffff” google_fonts=”font_family:Lato%3A100%2C100italic%2C300%2C300italic%2Cregular%2Citalic%2C700%2C700italic%2C900%2C900italic|font_style:400%20regular%3A400%3Anormal” css=”.vc_custom_1537946500082{background-color: #536895 !important;}”][vc_column_text el_id=”entrytxt” el_class=”entrytxt” css=”.vc_custom_1677954558602{padding-left: 15px !important;}”]<\/p>\n
