    There are very few insect pests in the orchid, and the only insects that can bite the leaves of the orchid are scale insects and slugs (snails).

    Don't prune the leaves. Spraying the wound with chlorothalonil or methyl tobuzine is sufficient.

    Scale insects hide on the back of leaves or in leaf axils. Use a toothpick to pick up the adults, and then use a soft brush dipped in washing water or soapy water to clean up the area around the scale insects.

    Slug (snails) are mostly nocturnal and hide at the bottom of flower pots or in dark corners around them during the day. Timely cleaning up will do.

    Junzi orchid likes temperature and light, is not tolerant of cold, and is easy to survive but not easy to raise. If you want to raise Junzi Orchid in winter, special attention should be paid to strengthening management. 1. The suitable temperature of the gentleman's orchid in winter is 15 20, and it is best not to be lower than 10.

    Although the orchid prefers a semi-shady environment, the longer the sun shines in winter, the better. 2. Junzi orchid likes loose and fertile neutral or weakly acidic humus soil, and nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium compound fertilizers are applied during the growth period to promote its germination of more new plants and leaves. In winter, if the new leaves are spotted and the roots are yellow, it means that too much fertilizer has been applied, and the new leaves are narrow, thin and particularly light in color, which is a sign of fertilizer deficiency.

    3. The soil should not be too dry and too wet, each watering must be watered thoroughly, and more water and spray a new high-fat film after the bud, which can adjust the amount of water absorption. 4. The flowering period of the Monarch Orchid is mostly from December to March of the following year. Spraying flowers at the bud stage can promote strong flower buds, hypertrophic petals, bright flower color, rich floral fragrance and prolonged flowering period.

    There is no fermentation and rotting with nutrient soil, and there are more pests and diseases in the soil, and there are more pests and diseases in the animal manure, crop straw, and scraps, and if they are directly applied to the soil, they will spread, breed, and hatch in the soil, endangering the growth of crops, and outbreaks of pests and diseases.

    People who have been raising flowers for a long time often encounter the situation of potting insects, and I will briefly introduce a few methods below:

    1. Precautionary Act. Before potting the potted flowers, put the potting soil into a larger old food bag, pour boiling water, tie the bag tightly, expose it to the sun for a day, and then spread it out and dry it to use, which can play a role in killing insect eggs.

    2. Chemical method. Long-term dampness in the potting soil causes insect pests, insecticides can be purchased, sprayed to kill insects, and indoor potted plants should be avoided.

    3. Change the living environment of pests, move the flower pot to a dry and ventilated place, bask in the sun, pay attention to timely watering, and shade-loving flowers, such as orchids and bamboos, should cover the plants and prevent sunburn leaves.

    Fourth, replace the potting soil. After changing the soil, it is necessary to pay attention to shading and maintenance for a period of time before it can be transferred to normal cultivation.

    Summary: It is a very common phenomenon to grow insects in the soil of planting flowers, and there are many reasons for the generation, the most important reason is that the soil is not treated well, and many germs, eggs and pests are living or overwintering in the soil. So the best way is to change the pot, that is, to change the soil.

    If you haven't started potting yet, sanitize the soil before potting.

    Orchid potted leaves have insects, tell you these points, don't hurt the leaves and kill the insects! Flower friends have a few leaves in the center of the Junzi orchid with transparent insect eggs, and they bite off a few leaves in the center and want to spray them with insecticides, but they don't know if it will work.

    Many flower friends never use insect medicine to raise flowers, because it has an impact on green plants, especially the orchid, because the delicate leaves are easy to be injured, so many orchid friends will hardly use medicine on orchids.

    Caution should be exercised when using insecticides on potted orchids, as improper use will also harm orchids; Potted plant diseases and insect pests should be observed diligently, and early prevention and early treatment should be done.

    If you do have worms, you must give the gentleman orchid medicine, be careful not to destroy the orchid leaves.

    Many flower friends do not recommend the use of insecticides for the orchid, saying that you can not spray on the leaves of the orchid, you can gently peel off the eggs by hand, pay attention not to hurt the leaves of the orchid, find a cardboard box to spray the insecticide on the ground outside, put two wooden sticks on it, take out the orchid and put it on the wooden stick (do not let the orchid pot stick to the insecticide) buckle the cardboard box, open it after half an hour, and put the orchid in a ventilated place to blow off the aftertaste.

    When changing pots, rotten or hollow fleshy roots should be cut off, and the normal growth of fleshy roots should not be cut off, so as not to affect the absorption of nutrients in the nutrient soil by the plant.

    In the indoors, because the sunlight passes through the glass, the ultraviolet rays cannot pass through, especially the double glass, the ultraviolet rays pass through less, so it is placed in a place that can receive enough light, whether it is a seedling or an adult, it is necessary to flower or fruit.

    Soil blending method: Soil mix ratio oak leaves 7: pine needles: 1: coarse sand: 1, the remaining charcoal, hemp seeds, soybeans, sunflower seeds appropriate amount.

    Oak leaves need to be treated a little smaller, and it is recommended to tear the oak leaves, and they must be rotted before they can be used.

    If you can, you can burn the charcoal yourself, and if you don't have the conditions, you can buy a little, and you also need to break some of it.

    The rest of the pockmarks, soybeans, and sunflower seeds should be cooked, mix these together, and then you can use them!!

    Pour orange water. The orange peel is collected, then soaked in clean water, after soaking for a few days, the orange peel water is taken out and watered into the soil, the substances in the orange peel can kill the insects in the soil of the orchid. In addition, the orchid is very acidic, and soaking orange water can adjust the acidity and alkalinity of the soil, thereby providing a suitable growing environment.

    Tobacco soaked in water. Collect the tobacco, soak the tobacco in clean water, and then use it to water the Junzi orchid, the tobacco can also play a role in driving away insects and killing insects.

    Spray with pesticides. Select the insecticide according to the type of insect, and then dilute it with water according to the instructions and spray it on the plant to avoid pesticide damage caused by excessive concentration.

    It is also possible to repot.

    The phosphine granules have a special effect on the control of underground pests.

    Here's how:On top of the soil of the pot where the orchid is grown, sprinkle a little phosphine granules, and then cover the top with another layer of soil.

    If the light is sprinkled with the medicine and the soil is not covered on it, then the active ingredient of the agent will volatilize into the air, and the phosphine is easy to decompose and fail when exposed to light, so there is no obvious control effect on the soil.

    Note

    Do not apply too much pesticide to avoid pesticide damage. Especially the Junzhilan that grows in a flower pot, the dosage should be strictly controlled. About 3 grams of phosphine granules can be sprinkled on each pot.

    There is a possibility of worms.

    To get rid of these little bugs in the first place, we first need to figure out where it comes from! In fact, most of these small insects are bred in the soil, in order for plants to live in loose and fertile soil, so we use the humus soil in the woods outside to add garden soil, river sand and some other decaying materials to configure, such soil will of course breed small insects. Therefore, it is very necessary to disinfect the soil before raising flowers, many flower friends feel that it is too troublesome to disinfect the soil, so this step is omitted, and the soil is not disinfected in advance will not only breed small insects, but the bacteria in the soil will also infect the roots of flowers, causing rotten roots of plants.

    The method of soil disinfection is actually very simple, we only need to flush the configured soil with boiling water, carry out high-temperature sterilization, and then put it in the sun for 2-3 days, you can kill the bacteria and insect eggs in the soil, but this method is only suitable for summer, because the sunlight is not strong enough in winter, so we have to use carbendazim such a fungicidal drug to disinfect the soil when cultivating the soil. Grinding aspirin, a common medicine at home, into powder, has the same effect as carbendazim, and only in the process of soil disinfection and sterilization can it not be easy to breed eggs and be infected with germs.
