How should orchids be watered after they grow bones, should they be watered frequently or less?

Orchids should be watered more during the growth period and bud period, less or no water during the dormant period, more water during the germination period, less water after germination, more water when the flower buds appear, less watering during the flowering period to prolong the flowering period, stop watering for a few days after the flowers are gone, let them dormant and then water.

Orchid watering tips:

1. Watering orchids depends on the temperature.

The temperature will speed up the transpiration of the plant, and in the environment of higher temperatures, the water demand of the plant will be more, and the frequency and amount of watering should be increased accordingly. Conversely, the lower the temperature, the slower the evaporation of water, and the less water is needed. This is mainly due to seasonal differences.

2. Water the orchid and look at the light.

Watering according to the light is actually about the same as the temperature, when the light is strong, the water evaporates quickly and requires more water, and vice versa, the water demand is less. Therefore, the shading degree is different, and the frequency of watering is also different, and the sun is more watering, and less watering when the sun is back.

3. Watering orchids to see the humidity.

From the perspective of air humidity, the water in the potting soil will evaporate quickly, and more water will be needed. On the contrary, if the air humidity is high, the transpiration will be very weak, so it is necessary to reduce watering or not water.

4. Watering orchids depends on the wind.

This applies to outdoor farming. The dry southwest wind, the wind is stronger, and you need to water more, on the contrary, the southeast wind is relatively humid and has a weak transpiration effect, so you can water less. In addition, when placing orchids in the position of the tuyere, they need to be watered more.

5. Watering orchids depends on the weather.

Nature is unpredictable, and the amount of watering is different in different light, temperature, and humidity environments. The basic practice is: water more on sunny days, less on cloudy days, and no water on rainy days.

Introduce some problems that should be paid attention to in the maintenance of orchids during flowering.

Watering a freshly planted orchid for the first time is commonly known as "watering the roots". In the practice of raising orchids, the author has realized that it is necessary to water the roots of orchids: to water the newly planted orchids after pruning, disinfection and drying, and to create a moist and comfortable environment, so that the roots can absorb enough water, which is beneficial to the recovery of vitality and healthy growth of the source jujube in the future.

The watering of the root can be carefully cracked according to the following steps, using the following three watering methods:

1) Potting method - soak the freshly planted orchid pots into a bucket, take them out after the pot is soaked, and then let the water in the spray run out. This method of making pots and soaking water is more uniform and thorough than watering with a watering can.

2) spray method - the leaf surface of the plant and the root of the plant have been disinfected before the box, after hours of drying, the leaf surface will inevitably leave residual medicine, with spray to rinse the leaf Xiangzhi surface, can eliminate the drug residue, so as to keep the leaf clean.

3) Watering method - after showering the leaves, about 20 minutes apart, then use a duckbill-shaped watering can to refill the surface of the pot once until the bottom hole is watered, so as to rinse the roots.
