Are orchids suitable for indoor cultivation, can orchids be kept indoors for a long time

Regardless of the species, orchids are very suitable for indoor cultivation. The indoor environment is also more suitable for it. It likes to be warm, and the temperature inside is just right, neither too high nor too low. It is afraid of too strong light, and the indoor light will not be too strong.

The orchid itself is an ornamental plant, which is used to be placed indoors for ornamentation. There are many varieties of it, and each variety is very ornamental and very temperamental. Placed indoors, it can show our temperament and aesthetic taste.

Usually wild orchid can grow and reproduce normally under the broad-leaved forest, because it is a shade-loving plant that can grow in the shade during the long period, and can be placed in the indoor sunny and ventilated place to plant, and the position with strong indoor scattered light is conducive to its growth, which can prevent the yellow leaves and slender plants that appear in the shade.

Orchids are generally placed in the open field in spring, summer, and autumn (in the shade of the open field in summer) and indoors in winter. It is best to be outside in an open area with humid air. There should be plenty of light indoors, preferably facing south.

In this way, it is beneficial for orchids to grow. It is best to place the orchid basin on a wooden frame or table, not on the ground.

The most suitable growth temperature for Chinese orchids is 20-30 degrees, and their growth rate is the fastest in the temperature range of 23-28 degrees.

At noon in summer, it is also possible to place orchid plants in an air-conditioned room for a short time, but it is necessary to ensure that the temperature and humidity in the air-conditioned room should be similar to the outdoor temperature at night, and the humidity difference should not exceed two degrees, and the humidity difference should not exceed 10%, so as to avoid limiting the growth state of the plant. If there is a large difference between temperature and humidity, then it is better to keep it outdoors or in an indoor air-conditioned room for maintenance, and you can only choose one of the two.

If the ambient temperature outside is particularly high in summer (in some areas), it is not suitable for the normal growth of orchids. At this time, it is possible to move the orchid plants to an air-conditioned room, but it is necessary to ensure that the room temperature is controlled between 23 degrees and 28 degrees, which should be easy to do.

In addition, it is necessary to have the right diffused light and good ventilation, and the ventilation in this air-conditioned room seems to be somewhat contradictory to the natural ventilation environment outside, which needs to be artificially improved. As much as possible, do not have to move in and out every day, causing disorders in the physiology and growth of orchid plants. Every summer, I move the buds into the air-conditioned room in advance to adjust the light, temperature and ventilation in the room.

Orchid plants bloom better than outdoors and bloom for many days longer than outdoors.

Yes, you can.

How to raise orchids indoors in summer.

1. Moisture. In summer, the water evaporates relatively quickly, so it needs to be given enough water, and it can be watered once in the morning to make the soil in a moist state. After noon, if the soil is dry, you can water it again, not too much, just wet the surface of the potting soil.

2. Ventilation. In summer, the indoor temperature will be relatively high, so it is necessary to open the windows properly for ventilation. A ventilated growing environment not only facilitates plant growth, but also reduces the incidence of pests and diseases.

3. Temperature. It should be kept indoors at a temperature of 25-30 °C and the temperature should not be too high. If the indoor temperature is high, it is necessary to take cooling measures and ensure indoor air circulation.

Fourth, fertilization. The peak season of orchid growth is in summer, so it is necessary to apply Bika water-soluble fertilizer in time, and the fertilization should be applied diligently with thin fertilizer, and the amount of fertilizer should not be too large. Fertilization is best done at night and watered in time the next day, do not apply too much fertilizer to it, it is easy to burn the roots.

Shading orchids are more afraid of strong light, and the sunlight in summer is not suitable for its growth, especially between 11 and 5 noon, and must do a good job of shading. If you want to build a shade net, it is recommended to build a few more layers, which can better block the strong light and reduce the temperature to a certain extent.

The optimal temperature for the growth of temperature-controlled orchids is 20 to 30 °C, and orchids grow well in this range of temperatures. The temperature is high, the orchid grows fast, the flowering period is early, and the flower fragrance is strong; The temperature is low, the orchid grows slowly, the flowering period is delayed, and the floral fragrance is light.

In summer, the temperature during the day is controlled in the range of 24 30, and the temperature at night can be controlled in the range of 16 24, which is suitable for the rapid growth of orchids and the accumulation of nutrients for germination of summer and autumn buds, which is conducive to the emergence of orchids in summer.

Watering in the case of a dry orchid pot, the correct way is to take rainwater to water the orchid pot, so that the temperature and humidity of the small world in the pot are consistent with the outside nature. However, rainwater is not easy to obtain, so you can use the tap water at home for 24 hours.

Watering should be done in the early morning before sunrise and in the evening after the residual heat has subsided.

No matter what kind of organic fertilizer is used for fertilization, it must be fully fermented and decomposed thoroughly, and diluted with clean water.

Fertilization should be "thin fertilizer diligent" as well, apply liquid fertilizer every 10 days, and carry out in the evening on sunny days. Within an hour or two after fertilization, or the next morning, water the potted orchid thoroughly with clean water to remove the remaining fertilizer.

In the south of the country, the sun is shining brightly in summer, and the rain is abundant, and the planting material in the orchid pot becomes sour, which is easy to cause insect pests. Therefore, pesticides should be sprayed every 7 days around the cultivation site and potted orchids for insecticide and sterilization.

In summer, the orchid slowly enters the dormant period, so it is generally not recommended to introduce orchids or repot orchids in summer. But indoor orchid farming cannot be generalized, because the room temperature can be artificially controlled, and it is a good time for people who invest in orchid farming, and it is cost-effective.
