Excuse me, how to raise phalaenopsis after flowering

There are two main aspects of how to raise phalaenopsis after flowering, one is whether to cut off the flower arrows, and the other is how to maintain it after flowering.

1. Do you want to cut the flower arrows after the phalaenopsis blooms?

After the phalaenopsis blooms, the flower stems can be cut, but it is best not to cut them all (according to the state of the whole plant, if the roots and leaves are very healthy and strong, it is recommended to keep a few flower stems, and new flower buds can be sent out after more than 2 months), cut off from the first flower or near the first branch, and the remaining residual flower stalks still have buds, and they can be raised again after a certain period of time. For orchids, do not let them bear fruit, because even if they can bear fruit, it is difficult to propagate with seeds, and nutrients are consumed in the fruiting process. Whether it can be fertilized or not, observe the growth of the plant after flowering.

2. How to maintain phalaenopsis after flowering.

After the butterfly flower, you can give a little slow-release fertilizer, put it in a scattered place, usually dry and then water, spray frequently, pay attention not to wet the new shoots, otherwise it is easy to rot. Put it in a ventilated and cool place in summer, and it is best not to lower than 15 degrees in winter.

A very important task after the phalaenopsis is pruning. There are two ways to prune, if you want to make the second flower bloom that year, you can cut off the top branch by counting four or five knots up from the bottom of the branch. Secondary flowering will deplete Phalaenopsis of a lot of nutrients, so we recommend cutting it directly from the base of the flower branch.

Phalaenopsis is easy to die after flowering, and rejuvenation after flowering is the key, and a few tips can help you.

1. Prune. After phalaenopsis flowering, you need to cut off the residual flowers in time, 3-4 nodes up from the bottom of the peduncle, not too low, at least keep the flower stem with 2-3 bud points. Long branches, messy branches, diseased branches, and dead branches should also be cut off to promote the germination and growth of lateral branches.

2. Appropriate amount of top dressing. After the phalaenopsis flowering period, it is necessary to properly top dressing to ensure that the plant grows with sufficient nutrients. Fertilize once every 15-20 days, and choose slow-acting organic liquid fertilizer to promote the second flowering of Phalaenopsis.

3. Morning and evening temperature difference. In the process of cultivating phalaenopsis, the temperature should be controlled at 18 -28, and the temperature difference between day and night should not be too large. The temperature at night is around 12 -15 and the temperature during the day is 18 -25, so that the temperature difference between day and night can better promote the flowering of phalaenopsis.

4. Growth environment and watering. Phalaenopsis orchids are suitable for keeping in well-ventilated places and cannot grow in a dark and damp environment for a long time. It is necessary to maintain sufficient humidity, as too dry air can easily cause the leaves to turn yellow and fall off, and the plant grows slowly.

When the potting soil is dry, water it in time, and water it thoroughly, so as not to accumulate water.

5. Placement. Phalaenopsis is suitable for cultivation on the balcony or in the sunny place by the window, and needs to be irradiated by scattered light, but it cannot be exposed to strong direct light for a long time, otherwise it will affect flowering. It should not be kept in a closed environment, and it is best to keep it ventilated and light-transmitting, so that phalaenopsis can easily bloom.
