It is better to plant orchids in a deep pot or in a shallow pot

Shallow basins are good. The third layer of soil is the clay layer, which is called dead mud by rural people, this layer of soil retains water and has no fertilizer effect, and no plant likes this layer of soil, they will not extend their roots to this layer of soil, except for some tall trees that take deep roots for balance. Because they don't have the nutrients they need here, and they can't breathe.

Therefore, the reason why the root system of wild orchids grows parallel is not because it likes that, but because the roots are a natural choice of water and fertilizer.

Perennial bulbous flowers. Sex likes warmth and moisture, avoid strong light exposure. It is native to tropical South America, but it does not like high temperatures and is not hardy, and the suitable growing temperature is 18-23 degrees. It is suitable for growing in fertile, loose, well-drained sandy loam soils.

Vermilion red is dormant in winter, requiring dryness, the temperature is 9-12 degrees, the minimum can not be lower than 5 degrees, the south of the Yangtze River Basin, as long as a little protection can survive the winter.

Potted vermilion pots should not be too large (generally use 16-20 cm diameter pots first), so as not to wet the pot soil for a long time, resulting in bulb rot, pot soil should be mixed with humus and sand, before planting the bottom of the pot to apply some rotten cake fertilizer or chicken and duck manure as the base fertilizer. When planting, 1 4 to 1 3 of the bulb is exposed to the soil surface, after planting, the potting soil is compacted, leaving 2-3 cm along the mouth, watering once permeable, not more watering in the future, maintaining low humidity, and avoiding direct sunlight, when the leaves are pulled out about 10 cm long, then water normally, and start to apply top dressing, until the flower buds are formed and then stop fertilizing (but after flowering, you can apply an appropriate amount of fertilizer to promote bulb hypertrophy and fullness). After flowering, cut off the withered flower stems in time to avoid depleting the nutrients of the bulbs.

After autumn, the watering should be gradually reduced, and the potting soil should be slightly drier. In winter, it should be moved indoors for the winter, with a small amount of watering to keep the bulb from wilting, and the temperature should be kept at no less than 5 degrees, otherwise it will affect dormancy and flowering in the next year.

Orchids, fleshy roots grow fast, or appropriate deep pots are suitable.

Whether orchids are easy to maintain depends on whether you choose a deep pot or a shallow pot, try my method.

It is better to use high pots for orchids, which is more conducive to the growth of the root system, and with a strong root system, the orchid can be more vigorous.

Orchid cultivation methods and precautions.

1. Suitable temperature.

Breeding orchids to provide a suitable temperature environment of 15 25, so that it can grow healthily for flowering, in winter need to put the exposed orchids indoors, maintain a temperature of about 10 can safely overwinter, summer to avoid more than 30 high temperatures.

2. Water and fertilizer management.

Breeding orchids should pay attention to the principle of dry and thorough watering, watering once in about 2 3 days in spring and autumn to keep the soil moist, watering in the morning and evening in summer, and apply a thin Bika water-soluble fertilizer in the growth period of orchids about 2 3 weeks to supplement nutrients for growth.

3. Sufficient light.

In the cultivation methods and precautions of orchids, it is necessary to provide sufficient light for it, place it under astigmatism and receive about 3 or 4 hours of light, and shade it from 9 o'clock to 6 o'clock in the afternoon to avoid sunburn orchids.

4. Suitable soil.

Orchids should also choose loose soil when breeding, you can prepare garden soil, vermiculite and river sand in accordance with the ratio of 3:1:1, and add a little base fertilizer to make the soil more fertile and promote the growth of orchids.

First, the pot material orchid must use a relatively breathable pot, which is good for the growth of its root system. Therefore, purple sand pots and mud pots are more recommended. For novices, it is recommended to use a mud pot, because this kind of pot is very breathable, allows the plants to grow very well, and is also low.

For those who have maintenance experience, it is recommended to use a beautiful purple clay box.

Second, the size of the orchid pot should be determined according to the variety and volume of the plant. If you want to grow a relatively small variety such as spring orchid, you need to use a smaller pot. If you want to plant a slightly larger variety, you should use a larger pot.

If you are planting young plants, you need to use smaller pots. If you are planting an adult plant, use a larger pot.

3. Flower pot color Generally speaking, orchids are more suitable for planting in light-colored pots, because this can highlight its elegance and beauty. However, if you are maintaining young plants, then it is recommended to use a black pot. Because the black color absorbs heat, it slightly increases the temperature and allows the young plants to grow faster.

Lily of the valley flowers are suitable for deep pots.

Planting lily of the valley with a 25cm pot is fine. In the process of planting lily of the valley, it is first necessary to put the flower soil in a pot and water it once to wet it. Then the seeds are gently placed on the surface of the flower soil according to the seed spacing of about 5cm, and then covered with a thin layer of 1-2cm imitation hungry soil.

In addition, you can also cover the pot with plastic wrap so that the inside of the pot can be kept about 15.

After some time, they are able to bud. Once the buds have emerged, the film is removed and placed in a position with soft sunlight to give it a continuous diffuse light. It needs to be watered at the right time so that the soil can be slightly wet all the time.

It also needs to be given some floral fertilizer to provide nutrients.

Benefits of keeping lily of the valley indoors:

1. Decorative effect: Lily of the valley itself is a very good-looking flower, the flowers are white and good-looking, as if they are a string of small lanterns hanging down, with a demure temperament, very durable, can decorate the environment at home, play a role in beautifying and decorating, make the home look vibrant, and can also make people's mood better.

2. Kill the cover to suffocate and prepare for the bacteria: After the lily of the valley blooms, it will exude a fragrance, and the fragrance can play a role in sterilization, so it is very good to keep a pot at home.

3. Purify the air: Lily of the valley can adsorb harmful substances in the air, which can play a role in purifying the air and making the indoor air better.

Lily of the valley flowers are suitable for deep pots, the branches of its rhizomes are more, the depth of the ceramic pot should be selected when potting, the depth of about 25 cm is conducive to the growth of the root system, the best choice of potting is carried out in early spring, with peat soil, garden soil, river sand to prepare nutrient soil to lay in the pot, after planting into the plant, water enough root water, put it in a place with good lighting to maintain, and receive more than 6 hours of light every day.

Lily of the valley flowers are suitable for deep pots, lily of the valley is a perennial herbaceous plant, the rhizome has more branches, and the ceramic pot with a depth of about 25 cm should be selected when potting, which is conducive to the stretching and growth of the root system, and the whole plant can grow up to 30 cm, and the shape of the flowers is like a bell.

It is best to choose lily of the valley in the early spring for potting, with peat soil, garden soil, river sand to prepare nutrient soil to lay in the pot, after planting into the plant, water the roots, put it in a place with good lighting to maintain, receive more than 6 hours of light every day, and water every 3-5 days during the potting period.

Lily of the valley flowers like to grow in a cool, humid environment, have a certain cold resistance, not resistant to high temperatures, generally grow in the humid place of the shady slope or the side of the ravine at an altitude of 850-2500 meters, mainly distributed in Shandong, Zhejiang, Henan and Hunan provinces in China.

There are 4 common varieties of lily of the valley, namely the original variety of lily of the valley, the safflower lily of the valley, the Montana lily of the valley and the double-petaled lily of the valley, of which the flower color of the safflower lily of the valley is pink, and the origin of the Montana lily of the valley is in the Americas, and the flowers have a pale green midrib.

Bonsai. Orchids depend on the ventilation of the place where you raise orchids, the ventilation is good, and it can be deeply loaded, otherwise it is better to be shallow.

When planting, hold the leaves with one hand and add nutrient soil with the other.

Hold the base of the orchid plant slightly upwards to stretch the root system and shake the orchid pot at the same time. Let's culture the soil.

deep into the rhizosphere; Continue to add soil and shake the pot to adjust the position and height of the plant. Press along the edge of the pot with your hands, but do not hurt the roots too much, continue to add soil and squeeze until the soil on the surface of the pot is 2-3 cm higher than the mouth of the pot, slightly steamed bread shaped. The culture soil should cover the whole turan root and cover it to the base of the pseudobulb.

The depth of the filling, the tradition believes: Chunlan should be shallow, Huilan.

It should be deep, but generally not buried in the leaf base on the pseudobulb. When the newly-haired orchid grows in the mountains, it leaves a clear mark on the soil surface, which can be used as a standard. The size of the pot should also be commensurate with the size and number of plants, neither large pots and small plants, nor small pots and large plants.

Generally, the number of plants is expected to be full in 2-3 years. The size of the plant is commensurate with the height of the pot. It is not only conducive to growth, but also meets the requirements of ornamentation.

After planting, you can spread a layer of small stones or moss on the surface of the potting soil, preferably high-quality moss under the forest, which is not only beautiful, but also can regulate the water, and can also protect the leaf surface from being polluted by muddy water, and the new shoots will not be infected with the germs in the soil and rot their hearts; In addition, it can also slow down the erosion of the potting soil by rainwater and keep the potting soil loose.

After the planting is completed, the first water must be watered, the potting soil must be soaked, the water droplets should be small, and the impulse should not be large. If it is placed in a basin of water, do not soak it for too long. Once the potting soil is soaked, the pots are immediately removed and then placed in a shaded place for maintenance.

You can use "Yanwo microbial agent" + "root rooting agent" in the early stage, and the effect will be better when combined with Yanwo water-soluble fertilizer.

Every time I see the orchid photos of flower friends, I find that most of them are deep pots, and Hui Song has flower friends who wonder why orchids use deep pots, in fact, the advantages of deep pots are mainly beautiful, which can show the beautiful leaf posture of orchids, set off the elegance of flowers, atmosphere, and will not bind the orchid roots.

But this does not mean that shallow pots can not be planted orchids, simply said that if only from the maintenance feasibility of deep pots, shallow pots can be used to raise orchids, and shallow pots will not be inferior to deep pots, but shallow pots of orchid roots are more messy, not easy to divide seedlings.

For example, I used to use discarded washbasins to raise orchids, which still grow well, and in nature, the root system of orchids is mostly horizontally long, not deep underground, which is more conducive to the breathing of the roots, and now more orchids are planted in deep pots, one is to save space, and the other is beautiful (especially for some varieties, only deep pots can set off the temperament).

An orchid planted in a shallow pot and a deep pot, it is obvious to see the difference in temperament, the picture in the text is a deep pot, a regular pot, in fact, as long as we can control the watering, it is completely OK in Yingbi State!

White orchids. Use a deep pot, because its root system is more developed, suitable for growing in a large space in a pot, when cultivating white orchids, it is necessary to change the potting soil once a year according to the size of the plant to promote its vigorous growth, and when changing the pot of white orchids, it is necessary to cut off the rotten and blackened root system of the plant to avoid poor growth.

White orchids use deep pots, because the root system of white orchids is more developed, the plant shape is taller, and it can grow vigorously in a large space pot.

The growth rate of white orchids is relatively fast, when breeding white orchids, it is necessary to change the potting soil once a year according to the height of the plant to ensure the vigorous growth of white orchids, and to use humus soil, garden soil and sandy soil mixed to make a cultivation medium, and then apply rotten cake fertilizer to the soil.

When repotting white orchids, you need to prepare a pair of sharp scissors that have been disinfected to cut off the rotten and blackened roots of the plant to avoid the loss of excess nutrients, and spray carbendazim on the fractures of the roots of the white orchids.

or potassium permanganate solution.

It is sterilized and sterilized so that the plants can grow healthily.

When maintaining white orchids, it is necessary to apply thin phosphorus and potassium fertilizer every 10-15 days in the peak season of plant growth to promote flower bud differentiation, increase the number of white orchid flowers, and cut the branches and leaves of white orchids that grow too densely to improve the light transmittance between plants.
