Does Tiger Piran have a big water requirement? How long can I go without watering?

In fact, the requirements for water are not much, because the tiger pill orchid is particularly drought tolerant, and the water absorption is not strong, and it can be watered every three or four days.

Tiger Piran doesn't require much moisture, but you try not to put it in direct sunlight. The duration of watering is generally once a week.

It's not very big, because its leaves are very large and thick, and it can hide a lot of water for later use, so sometimes it's okay to go without watering for a month or two.

Once every 3-5 days, the number of watering varies depending on the season. Because the soil is more breathable, it is watered once every 3-5 days in spring, summer and autumn, and every 7-10 days in winter. In summer, it should be properly shaded at noon during the high temperature period, and watering can be done once a day.

Planting management: 1. Potting soil selection.

The potting soil for planting tiger pirans should be ventilated. Therefore, when planting tiger piran, it is best to use two-thirds of the humus and one-third of the garden soil to stir evenly. Do not use impermeable clay or sandy soil, because this kind of soil is not breathable after watering, the water is not easy to evaporate, and the rhizome is easy to rot.

2. Planting method.

Tiger Piranium is a heel plant, 10 individual plants on a pot with an inner diameter of 40 cm, and a full pot of tiger piran can be harvested after one year. When planting, first put a part of the soil under the pot, and then start planting from the side of the pot, and grasp the distance between each individual plant to ensure that the flowers are evenly planted in the pot.

3. Daily management.

Tiger Piran likes light and can be placed directly in direct sunlight, and if indoor conditions do not allow, it can also be placed close to sunlight. In summer, the germination speed and new leaves grow faster, and when the pot is full, the old leaves can be removed along the roots with scissors by the method of seedling interval, so that the new leaves can fully get the light and growth space.

The biggest reason why many people's tiger pill orchid is not well maintained is that the watering is not good and the tiger pill orchid has various problems, and the tiger pill orchid is a real desert plant, so the principle of watering it is to see the dry and wet, and if it is not dry, it will be watered thoroughly. Generally, 2 to 3 times a week is the normal frequency, but if the weather is cloudy and rainy, this frequency needs to be reduced.

Tiger Piran (Tiger Tail Orchid).

Growth habits: adaptable, warm and moist, drought tolerant, light and shade tolerant. The soil requirements are not strict, and the sandy loam with better drainage is better. Its growth temperature is 20-30, and the overwintering temperature is 10. Tiger pirans can be propagated by divides and cuttings.

Tiger pill orchid watering should be moderate, not too wet. It is watered once every 3 to 5 days in summer and once a week in winter. Saxivia is a desert plant that can tolerate harsh environments and prolonged drought conditions. If you water too often, the leaves will turn white and the color of the markings will fade. It grows vigorously from spring to autumn and should be watered thoroughly.

During the winter dormant period, watering should be controlled, the soil should be kept dry, and watering should be avoided in leaf clusters. When using plastic pots or other decorative flower pots with poor drainage, avoid stagnant water, so as not to cause rot and cause the leaves to fall down.

Tiger pirans are generally placed in shade or semi-shade, but they also prefer sunlight, but when the light is too strong, the leaf color will become dark and whitish. Loves warm temperatures. The suitable temperature is 18 27, below 13 that the growth stops.

In winter, the temperature should not fall below 10 for a long time, otherwise the base of the plant will rot and the whole plant will die.

Long and fast, the sun should be abundant!

It didn't take long for this concept to change, the climate, temperature, and rain all changed!

The water retention of the soil is also different.

If your soil is breathable enough, it's okay to water it every day.

If it doesn't work, it's rotten at once!

In short, it is less watering, you guess it is drying out and watering thoroughly!

I can't do it. You can plant some clovers in a pot and see that they are wilted and ready to be watered!

1. Water according to soil conditions.

The roots of these plants are usually sensitive and should not be soaked in water for a long time, otherwise the roots will rot. If the soil drainage of this kind of plant is relatively good, it needs to be watered once every three days or so; Soil with average drainage has the ability to store water, so it is almost enough to water it once a week.

2. Watering according to climatic conditions.

Tiger pill orchid is a sun-loving plant, so the demand for sunlight is relatively high, because after all, it is a sun-loving and drought-tolerant plant, and its water demand is also high. At this time, the watering rules should be based on the weather conditions to water it.

1. When the weather is hot, water once a week, and water all the water thoroughly, but there can be no stagnant water in the potting soil of the plant, otherwise it will affect the health of the plant.

2. If the weather is cool, you can water it once every ten days and half a month. If the leaves of the plant turn white during this period, it means that the watering is unreasonable, or the roots of the plant are blistered, so replacing the potting soil of the plant and replanting can solve the problem.

(1) It is difficult to answer the question of watering for a few days, mainly because of a variety of factors that determine the problem of watering, such as the looseness of the potting soil, the location of the pot, the climatic conditions, the different seasons, the size of the pot, the strength of the plant and the different growing seasons, etc., which will affect the watering time.

2) For example, the watering time of the same pot of tiger piranium in different seasons will be different, the spring festival humidity is high and the temperature is low, the plant is in the growth stage, the moisture in the potting soil decreases slowly, the watering time is relatively long, the humidity is low and the temperature is high, the plant grows vigorously, the water in the potting soil decreases quickly, and the watering time is shorter. In the same season, there will be differences between indoor and outdoor watering due to the difference in temperature, with a shorter outdoor watering time and a longer indoor watering time. The moisture in the potting soil will also be different during the growing and dormant periods of the same plant, and the potting soil will dry faster during the growing season than during the dormant period.

So watering for a few days is a difficult answer for sure. The above factors have a great correlation with the water in the potting soil, and the water decreases quickly, and the potting soil dries quickly, so it is the most effective watering method to see the potting soil.

3) When the tiger pill orchid is watered, it means that the pot topsoil is dry and needs to be watered, and when the pot topsoil is wet, it means that the pot soil is still very wet and cannot be watered, and it is easy to cause rotten root death after watering. In this way, it is easy to judge the time of watering, and it is not easy to cause root rot after watering. This watering method is more suitable and is not easy to cause the problem of watering rotten roots.

Tiger Piran likes drought and dislikes dampness, and watering should be dry and thorough. However, no one can give a few days for watering, because it is related to many factors, such as the texture and size of the pot, the time and degree of sunlight, the size of the wind, the water retention of the potting soil, and so on. There are several ways to determine if you want to water:

1 Listen to the sound of the pot Play the pot wall with your fingers, the sound is crisp and dry; The dull sound is earthy and wet;

2 Weigh the pot There is no sense of heaviness, it is the dry pot soil; There is a feeling of heaviness that is earthy and wet;

3 Look at the shape of the leaves The color is lighter, the touch is softer, and even the leaves are separated to the periphery, which is the potting soil is dry; On the contrary, the leaf color is fresh, the leaf is firm and shiny, and it is wet.

Use the above method to make sure that the soil is dry before watering. Of course, there is also the problem of mastering this correctly, so it depends on gradually practicing and accumulating experience.

Tiger pills are more drought tolerant. No matter what kind of flower watering, we must adhere to the principle of "not dry, not watering, watering thoroughly". Family cultivation and maintenance of Tiger Tail Orchid (Tiger Orchid) Tiger Tail Orchid, also known as Tiger Pillage Orchid and Thousand Years Old Orchid, is a perennial herbaceous foliage plant of the Liliaceae family.

The underground part of the orchid has a tough rhizome without a stem. Leaves are clustered, fleshy linear-lanceolate, hard leathery, erect, slightly furrowed at base; Dark green, with lateral bands of light green and dark green on both sides, slightly whitewashed with powder. racemes, flowers white to pale green, with a sweet and elegant fragrance; Flowering period: spring and summer.

The most commonly cultivated varieties are: Phnom Penh Saxivia orchid: resembles a saxifera orchid, but the leaf margins are inlaid with a broad band of golden yellow.

Saxifrage orchid: It is a dwarf species, with a plant height of about 10-20 cm, and is a mutant species of Phnom Penh Saxivia orchid, with short and wide leaves, and overlapping growth. Saxifrage with green onions:

Also known as stella-leaved tiger tail orchid. The leaves are cylindrical, the thickness of the whole leaf is about the same at the top and bottom, the end is slightly pointed and thin, the leaf surface has a longitudinal shallow concave shape, and each leaf grows independently. Saxiwei is native to ten arid Africa and southern Asia, and is cultivated in all parts of China.

It is adaptable, warm-warm, humid, drought-tolerant, light-loving and shade-tolerant. The soil requirements are not strict, and the sandy loam with better drainage is better. Its growth temperature is 20-30, and the overwintering temperature is 10.

Saxivia can be propagated by ramifications and cuttings. Every spring.

Piran prefers warm, sunny growing conditions, is shade tolerant, dryness-tolerant, avoids stagnant water, and requires well-drained planting soil. Tiger pirans should be kept out of direct sunlight in summer; Do not water too much, too much watering will lead to the lack of air in the soil and cause decay. Tiger piran is a succulent herbaceous plant that does not require much water, and care should be taken not to make the soil too moist.

Thin fertilizer water can be applied once every half to January (compound fertilizer can be applied after water.

If it is not dry, it will be watered, and the watering will be thoroughly The leaky hole of the flower pot starts to leak and stop watering.

1. Water once a few days.

This plant can tolerate drought and avoid waterlogging, so the number of days between watering should not be too small, and the frequency of watering should not be too frequent. The specific number of days to water depends on the season, when the temperature is higher in summer, the evaporation will also become fast, this time keep watering once every 3 to 5 days. But in winter, when the growth is slow and the temperature is relatively low, don't water it too often, just make sure to water it once a week.

Pay special attention to different weather, watering is also different.

2. Determine whether watering is needed.

Observe the leaves, if the color begins to lighten, touch it with your hands to be softer, this proves that the soil has been dry and can be watered, on the contrary, if the leaf color is fresher, upright, and looks shiny, it means that the moisture content in the soil is sufficient.

In the spring and autumn season when breeding tiger pill orchid, it is necessary to water every other week to keep the soil moist, in the middle of summer when breeding tiger pill orchid, it is necessary to water every 1-2 days to avoid yellowing of the branches and leaves of the plant, and in the cold winter when breeding tiger pill orchid, it is necessary to water every half a month to make the plant grow healthily.

1. Spring and autumn watering

Spring and autumn is the growing season of tiger pill orchid, in spring and autumn when maintaining tiger pill orchid, you need to water every other week to provide the plant with the water needed for growth, when watering tiger pill orchid, it is best not to use tap water, so as not to affect the growth of the plant with chlorine in the tap water.

2. Watering in summer

The temperature is high in summer and the water evaporation rate is fast, when breeding tiger pill orchid in summer, it is necessary to water every 1-2 days to keep the soil moist, so as to avoid the branches and leaves of tiger pill orchid drying up and yellowing, and when the ambient temperature is higher than 30 degrees, spray water around the tiger pill orchid to improve the humidity of the air.

3. Winter watering

Tiger Piran will enter a semi-dormant state in winter, the demand for water is not high, when breeding Tiger Piran in winter, you need to control the frequency of watering, you can water every half a month, when watering Tiger Piran, let the water temperature and room temperature be consistent, so as to avoid frostbite of the root system of the plant by cold water.

Tiger Piran is watered about once every ten days.

Because the tiger pill orchid is particularly drought tolerant, do not need to be watered frequently, in fact, usually ten days and a half months, put indoors without watering, will not dry out, the principle of watering the tiger pill orchid is dry and watered, the method of judging that the potting soil has been dried is as follows:

The first point is that the soil used to raise tiger pills is planted with ordinary soil or vegetable garden soil and river sand, and you can touch the surface of the potting soil with your fingers, if the soil becomes dry and compacted, it proves that it is already in need of watering.

The second point is that if it is saxiflage orchid with humus soil or nutrient soil, dig up a little potting soil with your hands or bamboo sticks, and more than 3 cm are dry, which proves that the potting soil has dried up and needs to be watered.

In this way, there is no problem in watering the tiger pill orchid, and there is no need to worry about drought or water rotting roots and leaves.

The soil for planting saxifolia orchid, whether it is humus soil or nutrient soil, it is best to mix some river sand, or small stones, perlite, etc., so that it is more loose and well drained. If there are more leaves, you can cut some down cuttings, although its rooting speed is not as fast as the moon season, but the survival rate is very high, and it will definitely germinate.

During the growing season, you should give more nitrogen fertilizer, and water more fertilizer when watering, such as soybean cake fertilizer, fermented bean dregs, and cooked soybeans, which can be used as fertilizer, which will make it grow very well. You can also use some high-potassium fertilizers sold in flower shops, burst buds constantly, and grow a circle of small buds, with many and particularly lush leaves.
