How to cultivate the orchid and how to raise the orchid?

Today's sharing is about the maintenance tips of the crab claw orchid, so that the crab claw orchid can bloom in the coming autumn.

Crab claw orchid maintenance skills:

1. Regarding watering, you must manage your hands well, crab claw orchid is drought-tolerant and likes a relatively dry environment, so it must be watered after the potting soil dries out, otherwise it is easy to accumulate water and rot roots.

When you find that the water has not penetrated when you are watering, you need to see if the potting soil is compacted. Take advantage of the dormant period, you can change it to a loose and breathable potting soil, and add some cinders to the general garden soil.

3. Regarding light, crab claw orchid likes light, but in this season, it is still not directly exposed to the sun, proper shade, in other spring and autumn seasons, feel free to dry, and half shade in summer.

4. After entering autumn, the crab claw orchid will enter the vigorous growth period, when the temperature is about 20 degrees, the crab claw orchid will grow rapidly, don't forget to supplement nutrients and water this season.

As long as the light, water, nutrients, and temperature are in place, the crab claw orchid will continue to bloom.

Hello, you can mix cuttings, garden soil, nutrient soil, and sandy soil. Then soak the crab claw orchid in the rooting powder for half an hour, insert it into the soil, and water it thoroughly. Then put it in a ventilated place. That's it.

1. Soil

Crab claw orchids are prone to root rot due to overwatering or poor drainage, so it is best to plant them in clean, loose soil with coarse sand mixed with peat and rotting leaves.

2. Fertilization

Excessive fertilization and too much fertilizer concentration can easily cause root rot in crab claw orchid, resulting in wilting of stem nodes and falling off of flowers half-opened. The principle of fertilization is to apply less and apply frequently.

3. Illumination

In summer, when the light is particularly strong, the crab claw orchid enters a semi-dormant state, and the number of watering times is reduced compared with spring and autumn, and it is necessary to absolutely avoid water in the pot, otherwise it will cause root rot.

4. Temperature

In summer, when the temperature is high, it is best to provide 50% shade. Move the crab claw orchid to a shaded place. The indoor light can fully meet the normal growth of crab claw orchid.

5. Watering

When spring and autumn are a little warmer, it is necessary to see that the soil in the pot is almost dry before watering. The principle of watering is "dry and wet, dry to be thorough, not dry and not watered, watered thoroughly". In winter and spring, the temperature drops, and the weather is colder, so it is generally watered once every 7 to 10 days.

1. Fertilizer continues to be balanced.

The size of the crab claw orchid itself is not very large, but it can often produce a lot of flowers, which shows that the crab claw orchid needs a large amount of nutrient supply when it is in the flowering period.

From October to February of the following year, it belongs to the flowering period of crab claw orchid, and at this time, it is necessary to continue to supplement some fertilizer with sufficient phosphorus and potassium content for crab claw orchid, so that crab claw orchid will bloom more full flowers when the nutrients are sufficient. Every 10 days or so, you can supplement and dilute about 900 times of the flower-type nutrient solution for the crab claw orchid, and the crab claw orchid will not have the problem of lack of fertilizer and no flowering, and it can also prolong the flowering period of the crab claw orchid, and the flower color will become more beautiful.

Facing dry and sensitive "dangerous" skin, caring for delicate skin advertising.

Winona. After February, the buds of the crab claw orchid will slowly wither, and it is necessary to use gardening scissors to cut off the gradually withering buds to reduce nutrient consumption. After the flowering period, the crab claw orchid needs to mainly maintain the leaves, you can bury some granular fertilizer in the soil, which will usually release some nitrogen, so that the leaves and roots grow strong, and lay a good foundation for the next flowering.

2. Do not dry or water to avoid rotten roots.

As mentioned earlier, the crab claw orchid is known as the Christmas cactus, not only the appearance is similar to the cactus, but also the crab claw orchid is also more adapted to the relatively dry environment, and the moisture content in the soil is relatively large, which is very easy to lead to the rot of the crab claw orchid, and the severe rot of the root can also lead to the death of the crab claw orchid.

When arranging soil for crab claw orchids, flower friends can use light and breathable nutrient soil that will not absorb too much water. If you are located in a humid southern region, you can also add a little more granular soil to the soil, which can increase the soil gap, drainage, and supplement oxygen, so that the roots of the crab claw orchid can breathe easily and avoid root rot.

It is also necessary to pay attention to the watering when the soil is completely dry, if the soil is still in a slightly moist state, it also does not need to be watered, and watering too often can easily lead to difficulty breathing and root ulceration. If you are worried about not being sure, you can use a moisture detector to test the moisture of the soil, which is more accurate, and at the same time can also detect the fertility of the soil, which is a very practical little tool.

3. Direct light is mainly in winter and spring, and scattered light is mainly in summer and autumn.

Crab claw orchid is a winter flowering plant, in the flowering period needs to provide sufficient light for crab claw orchid, crab claw orchid is not very sun-resistant, but the winter sun will be mild, not easy to burn the leaves of crab claw orchid, when the light is not particularly strong, you can put crab claw orchid outdoors in good light, such as balcony or window sill to receive light.

When the sun is strong in summer, it is necessary to shade the crab claw orchid to avoid the crab claw orchid being burned by the fierce light, and you can install a shade net on the balcony or put it in a position with scattered light, which can reduce the intensity of ultraviolet rays and avoid the crab claw orchid from being sunburned.

During the flowering period of the orchid, it is necessary to give the plant enough light, put it in a warm and ventilated position, stabilize the temperature of the plant growth between 15 degrees and 25 degrees, and keep the potting soil semi-moist. If the plant has not yet bloomed in autumn, it is necessary to apply phosphate fertilizer to the plant to supplement nutrients, and the plant will be deficient in nutrients after flowering, and the plant should be supplemented with fertilizer for another time.

In September is the flowering period of the stinging claw, and before the plant blooms, around August, the plant can be applied with phosphorus fertilizer. Phosphate fertilizers help the orchid to produce dense and flourishing flowers, and it also causes the plant to bloom earlier or for a longer flowering period. After the plant blooms, it is necessary to supplement the fertilizer to the plant in time, prune off the residual flowers and leaves on the branches, and water the plant properly.

Crab claw orchid loves light, and after the plant blooms, it needs to be given enough light. To put the plant in a sunny and well-ventilated place, sufficient light can make the plant photosynthesize normally, transform the body substances and accumulate nutrients, can make the flowers more colorful, is conducive to prolonging the flowering period, and also helps the growth of stems and leaves.

After flowering, make sure that the temperature of the plant is between 15 and 25 degrees, which is conducive to the growth of unopened buds. In addition to the need for a suitable temperature, but also the appropriate amount of watering, during the flowering period to keep the potting soil semi-moist, do not water too much, watering after the potting soil has become dry.

If the crab claw orchid does not bloom during the flowering period in September, it may be related to fertilizer. The lack of phosphate fertilizer in the plant will affect flowering, if the crab claw orchid does not bloom, apply phosphate fertilizer to the plant. The time of fertilization should be selected at night as much as possible, the night is cooler, the evaporation is small, and the plant can be watered the next morning after fertilization, diluting the fertilizer and avoiding burning the roots.

Crab claw orchid, a perennial flowering plant of the cactus family, blooms from November to January of the following year, and the single flower can open for up to a week, and the group can enjoy it for more than a month. It is a flower that has been popular for many years and is suitable for winter ornamentation. There are more than 200 varieties in the world, and the colors and patterns are extremely rich.

The key points to pay attention to in cultivating crab claw orchid are as follows: The cultivation substrate is mainly loose peat with good aggregate structure. It is suitable to be placed in a warm and humid environment, but the potting soil can not be too wet, and the principle of "dry and watering" is pursued, and the high temperature season can be watered once every 2 3 days, and watering at noon is avoided; Low temperature in winter, can be watered once a week; Do not water in the evening.

Thin fertilizer is applied frequently. After 30 days of cuttings, new leaves can be fertilized as they emerge. The EC value is.

It likes potassium fertilizer, followed by nitrogen fertilizer and phosphate fertilizer. The ratio of N, P and K fertilizers is 30 15 20 or 40 20 30. Stop fertilizing in winter, and in order to improve the flowering rate, you can spray 1000 times potassium dihydrogen phosphate liquid fertilizer once a week.

The suitable temperature for growth is 20 25, reaching 22 or more, and it is best to use ventilation equipment. Above 35 or below 2 will stop growing. The relative humidity should not exceed 75%.

In order to obtain a good plant shape, when the plant has more than 3 4 stem nodes, it is necessary to shape the plant and remove all the leaves above the 3 4 stem nodes in the lower part. Short-day treatment was applied one week after the plants were set. Flower bud formation can be seen in 3 weeks.

Flowering control. Crab claw orchid is a short-day plant, and the purpose of controlling the flowering period can be achieved by adjusting the light time. To promote flowering, start short-day treatment 60-70 days in advance of the desired flowering time.

8 hours of natural light per day, and the rest of the time is shaded. The light intensity inside the shading net should not exceed 5 lux. Do not exceed 25 temperatures.

Note that shading should be carried out continuously, without interruption in between. Flower buds can usually be seen after 20 days. Flowering is inhibited, and the natural flowering period of crab claw orchid is in November and December.

If you want to bloom during the Spring Festival, you need to take steps to delay the flowering period. Long-day treatment is generally carried out in mid to late September. Hours of light are given from 11 p.m. to 1:30 a.m. to break the darkness.

60 watt incandescent lamps can be installed in the shed, one per meter, and the distance from the plant is 90 cm.

1.Soil and watering: It is necessary to choose relatively fertile soil and pay attention to increasing acidic fertilizers. When the temperature is high, watering every two days is sufficient. After entering autumn and winter, watering once a week is sufficient.

2.Temperature and fertilizer: The growing temperature is 20-25 degrees, and pay attention to the application of thin light fertilizer every 10 days, and keep the "thin fertilizer applied frequently".

3.Light: Adjusting the light time can control the flowering period of crab claw orchid. No more than 8 hours of natural light per day, the rest of the time requires shading.

Ask what medicine is used for the disease of crab claw orchid leaves.

Prevention and control method: When cultivating, the substrate must be disinfected before use to ensure that there are no germs in it. When managing, we should pay attention to the amount of watering and the number of watering times each time, do not let the environment be too wet, properly control the humidity, and prefer dry to wet.

In addition, at the beginning of the disease, it is necessary to spray zebsen zinc to avoid further infection.

Prevention and control methods: Once it is found to be infected with leaf spot, it is necessary to remove the diseased leaves in time to reduce the source of infection. In addition, drugs should be used at the early stage of the disease, and the drug can be 800 times the liquid pentachloronitrobenzene fungicide, or directly applied to the leaves.

Hello, your crab claw orchid should have leaf spot disease, it is recommended that you refer to the second case**.

Don't accumulate water, and get plenty of sunshine.
