How to maintain phalaenopsis during flowering, phalaenopsis flowering maintenance points

1. Appropriate amount of light.

When cultivating phalaenopsis, it should be placed in a place where sunlight can be scattered, and in summer, it should be given proper shade and pay attention to ventilation.

Second, the right temperature.

Phalaenopsis grows at a temperature of 15 to 30 °C, and when the temperature is above 35 in summer and below 10 in winter, it becomes dormant.

3. Watering an appropriate amount.

In the growth period of phalaenopsis to water it in an appropriate amount, in its dormant period to reduce watering, generally from April to October, you can water at about 5 o'clock in the afternoon, watering to water enough, the specific number of watering should be decided according to the condition of the soil.

During the growth of phalaenopsis orchid, it should be fertilized in an appropriate amount, almost once a week, common inorganic fertilizers can be applied when fertilizing, and it is necessary to pay attention to stop fertilization when the temperature is high in summer, and its plants grow slowly in autumn, so as to reduce the number of fertilization.

During the flowering period of phalaenopsis, if you ignore the 2 points of maintenance, the leaves will be soft and do not grow.

During the flowering period of phalaenopsis, attention should be paid to the four aspects of temperature, moisture, light and fertilizer.

1. Temperature: The temperature should be strictly controlled during the phalaenopsis flowering period, and the temperature should not be too high or too low. The optimal temperature is 15 18 at night, and the continuous low temperature below 23 25 and 14 during the day can lead to stunted growth of flower buds, and even sepal frostbite, deformed flower development, and completely lose ornamental value.

2. Moisture: Phalaenopsis needs less water than usual throughout the flowering period, without affecting the normal growth of its plants, the medium is dry to help the flowers to be colorful, and the humidity is about to pinch the medium fingers to have a moist feeling, not too dry or too wet. If the medium is too dry, it will cause the leaves to wilt, which will seriously reduce the overall ornamental value.

3. Light: The light intensity required for the phalaenopsis flowering period is very different from that in the early stage, the early stage needs to be shaded and shaded, and the shade must be removed during this period, and the strong light intensity helps the flowers to stretch, and the flower arrows are uniform and the flower color is gorgeous. There is no need to increase the light intensity, and there is no need to follow a fixed and accurate light intensity data.

4. Fertilizer: Phalaenopsis plants basically stop growing or grow weakly during the flowering period, and there is basically no need to fertilize during this period, and more fertilizer will lead to root rot. However, a small amount of fertilization helps flowering, and the flower quality is good, while unfertilized plants show that the flowers are long and brittle, the inflorescence nodes are too long, and the flowers are too large.

Thin liquid fertilizer is applied every half day, and the fertilizer ratio is more important than phosphorus and potassium fertilizer.

Phalaenopsis flowering period:

Phalaenopsis has a long flowering period, generally around the Spring Festival, and the ornamental period can be as long as 2 to 3 months, blooming once or twice a year. When the flowers are wilted, the withered flowers should be cut as soon as possible to reduce nutrient consumption. If the stems are cut off from the base at 4 to 5 nodes, they can bloom again after 2 to 3 months.

Because it consumes a lot of nutrients to grow and bloom, it is important to allow sufficient time for it to recover. In a domestic environment, flowers often only bloom once a year.

The maintenance methods of phalaenopsis during flowering are as follows:

1. The repotting time should depend on the cultivation medium. The moss substrate will rot in 1 2 years, and when it decays, it secretes extremely acidic substances that will harm the aerial roots.

If it is not replaced in time, it will lead to root rot. Therefore, with water moss or bark as a substrate, it is necessary to change the pot once in 1 2 years of cultivation; Cultivated with coconut shells, it can be repotted once in 2 3 years; with ceramsite.

Or charcoal cultivation can be repotted 1 time in 3 to 5 years. However, frequent and thin fertilization should be applied to compensate for the absence or lack of nutrients in these substrates.

2. Phalaenopsis orchid is easy to rot if it is rained or watered too much. Therefore, watering is the key to ensuring its normal growth. When watering, do not splash the leaves with water, because it is easy to cause leaf rot after splashing, especially in winter.

During the spring-summer growth period, it should be watered 1 time a day and sprayed 2 3 times; In autumn and winter, as the temperature decreases, the amount of watering should be gradually reduced, watering once every 2 5 days, and stop spraying, and keep the potting soil slightly wet.

3. Because organic fertilizer will produce peculiar smell after application, which will affect the hygiene of the room, chemical fertilizer is generally used for fertilization.

Mainly. Commonly used chemical fertilizers are potassium dihydrogen phosphate.

Diammonium phosphate and orchid special fertilizer, application concentration, 1 time in 5 7 days of the peak growth season; 1 time in 20 30 days in the slow growing season; Stop fertilizing in winter when the temperature drops below 15. In the cultivation process, the types and proportions of fertilization are also different during different growth periods. The ratio of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium fertilizers, and the vegetative growth stage of small and medium-sized seedlings is 1:

1：1；Large seedlings and flowering plants are: 4.

In fact, the answer to the question of whether to water phalaenopsis when it blooms is relatively clear, that is, it cannot be watered.

Because during the flowering period of Phalaenopsis orchid, it is actually in a dormant or semi-dormant state, which is not suitable for watering at this time, which will cause root rot or shorten the flowering period. Therefore, it is necessary to strictly control the water, and if necessary, you can spray some water to moisturize.

When phalaenopsis blooms, it is not suitable for fertilization. Generally, when maintaining phalaenopsis, a lot of nutrients have been accumulated before flowering, and fertilizers such as nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium can be applied several times before flowering, which can already meet the flowering needs of phalaenopsis. Therefore, it is best not to fertilize at the time of flowering.

When cultivating phalaenopsis, attention needs to be paid to strengthening ventilation. At this time, increased ventilation can reduce the humidity of the air and encourage the roots to increase water absorption. This allows for consistent flower size.

Basically, if you do these things well, the flowers will bloom well.

When breeding the flowering phalaenopsis, it is necessary to strictly control the moisture, it is best to take the method of spraying to increase the humidity of the environment, and provide no less than five hours of light for the phalaenopsis every day to keep the flower color bright, if the ambient temperature is too low, but also use heating equipment to keep the temperature at 15 degrees, so that the phalaenopsis orchid flowering period is extended.

1. Strict water control

Phalaenopsis is in a semi-dormant state during flowering, when the plant has less need for water, so in the process of breeding, it is not necessary to water it frequently, it is best to replenish water in the case of dry soil to keep the soil surface moist, and the rest of the time only need to spray water mist on the leaves to improve the environmental humidity.

2. Stop fertilizing

Phalaenopsis will consume more nutrients during the flowering period, but fertilizing it at this time will shorten the flowering period, resulting in a decrease in the ornamental nature of Phalaenopsis, so it can not be fertilized during the flowering period.

3. Supplemental lighting

Phalaenopsis has a greater need for light, insufficient light will reduce the number of its flowers, and the flower color is dull, in the flowering period, the phalaenopsis should be placed in a sunny environment to provide it with no less than five hours of light, but the afternoon light is too strong, to shade the phalaenopsis.

4. Maintain temperature

Phalaenopsis is sensitive to temperature, and temperatures above 30 degrees and below 10 degrees will affect the flowering effect. Therefore, the phalaenopsis that enters the flowering period should be cultivated indoors, and the ambient temperature should be kept at 15 degrees by using a fan or heater, so that the plants can open their flowers smoothly.

Phalaenopsis orchids need to be maintained during the summer flowering period, such as temperature control, watering control, light control and proper pruning. The temperature should be stable at about 16-28 degrees Celsius, appropriately reduce the amount of watering, control the water slightly, give the plants sufficient scattered light exposure, and be careful not to cut off the flower buds when pruning.

1. Stable temperature

Phalaenopsis is not tolerant to low temperatures, but extreme heat is also harmful to it, and the plant will stagnate when the temperature is higher than 32 degrees Celsius, so it is necessary to stabilize the ambient temperature between 16-28 degrees Celsius.

2. Control watering

The roots of phalaenopsis are fleshy, because of the combination of this is especially afraid of waterlogging, it is easy to rot, it is necessary to pay attention to not have stagnant water when watering, and the water storage capacity of the water moss is very strong, the water demand of the plant during the flowering period is not high, a little control of watering, reduce the amount of water can make the flowers of the plant more bright.

3. Control lighting

If the phalaenopsis is placed in a place with sufficient sunlight, the flowers of the plant will bloom larger, and the color of the flowers will become brighter and more attractive, but be careful not to let it be exposed to excessive exposure to the sun, otherwise the flowers will be burned by the sun, damaged or even withered.

4. Trim properly

Pruning for phalaenopsis is also one of the necessary processes in the maintenance of flowering, cutting off the remaining flowers on the phalaenopsis can save nutrients for the plant and reduce the probability of the plant being infected by pathogens, but it is also necessary to pay attention not to cut off the part with flower buds, so as not to cause the abnormal phenomenon of insufficient flowering stamina of the plant.
