How to raise phalaenopsis in summer Tips for raising phalaenopsis in summer

See below for cultivation methods:

Phalaenopsis is not sun-resistant, especially in summer, it is necessary to do a good job of shading, phalaenopsis is suitable for growing in a temperature environment of about 15-28 degrees, and it can generally be cooled down by spraying around the plant. Although the water evaporates quickly in summer, the specific amount of watering depends on the dry and wet conditions of the substrate. Do not blindly water more, otherwise it may cause root rot.

1. Sunlight exposure. The temperature in summer is very high, and the Phalaenopsis basically does not grow in the summer because it needs to grow in 15 to 20, and the summer temperature is basically above 20°. Proper sunlight exposure can promote its photosynthetic growth.

Generally, it mainly irradiates the morning sun, and the noon sun is not suitable for irradiation because it is too strong.

2. Reasonable watering. Phalaenopsis needs to be watered appropriately in summer, because of the high temperature in summer, it is generally best to water once every 1-2 days, and ensure that the soil is moist after watering, so as not to accumulate water. Watering is okay in the morning or evening, never in the middle of the day.

Watering is key, and it must be maintained daily in place.

3. Humidity control. Many flowers do not have very high requirements for humidity, but phalaenopsis has requirements for humidity, and the humidity in summer is generally very low and relatively dry. In order to increase the humidity, you can increase a certain amount of humidity by properly sprinkling water around the phalaenopsis, which helps the phalaenopsis a lot.

However, it should be noted that you should not use a humidifier to help humidify phalaenopsis, it is not necessary.

4. Trim properly. In summer, the phalaenopsis can be pruned properly, mainly to prune off some wilted branches and leaves, and secondly, some old leaves can also be pruned off, don't worry about the phalaenopsis dying. In autumn, the temperature will reach the right temperature for phalaenopsis to grow, and then phalaenopsis will be able to grow more new branches and leaves.

When pruning, pay attention to the overall symmetry to avoid skew in the later stage.

5. Temperature control. The temperature in summer is too high for the growth of Phalaenopsis orchid, and too high temperature will actually have a certain impact on Phalaenopsis orchid, which is easy to lead to wilted branches and leaves. Therefore, generally at high temperatures, it should be placed in a ventilated and astigmatized place for breeding.

It can also be placed in an air-conditioned room, but not in a ventilated place, this should be especially careful. Don't choose noon when taking it out of the air-conditioned room, it's generally better to take it out at night, and the temperature at night will generally be slightly lower.

6. Reasonable fertilization. In summer, you can fertilize the phalaenopsis, choose to use a general compound fertilizer, and try not to make homemade fertilizer, because homemade fertilizer requires a high degree of hands-on ability, and insufficient ability will lead to homemade fertilizer is not suitable for fertilizing phalaenopsis. The method of compound fertilizer is very simple, it needs to be diluted first, and the general ratio is 1:

2000 is better. Dilute with water. It is better to use a small amount of fertilization many times, and generally choose to fertilize once a week or half a month.

7. Pest control. Phalaenopsis insect pests are very common, because the temperature is too high and too low will appear, the suitable temperature for its own growth is more difficult to control, common soft rot, brown spot, anthracnose, bituminous coal disease, virus disease, scale insects, red spiders, etc., for these insect diseases, it is best to focus on prevention, that is, daily maintenance in place. In general, it is best to ensure that it can be kept in a ventilated place for a long time, so that it can be well avoided from insect infestation.

1. Light: When cultivating phalaenopsis, it can be placed in a place with scattered light, and it is more shade-loving. Flower friends can put it on the windowsill or the corner of the balcony when they are breeding, and if there is a garden at home, they can also be placed in the shade of trees.

2. Temperature: If it can be guaranteed temperature, it can grow better, and the most suitable temperature for its growth is between 16-30. The temperature required for its growth is relatively high, so the minimum temperature should be above 15 when it is usually raised.

3. Watering: The method of watering it is also relatively simple, watering it thoroughly, and then watering it when it is dry. If it's summer, you need to water a little more, and the temperature is high, and it evaporates quickly.

4. Precautions: Before watering, you can see whether the bottom of the pot is wet, and if it is wet, you can not water it first. It is best to breed phalaenopsis in a place with good air circulation, especially when it is summer, you need to pay attention to this, the air is hot and stuffy in summer, and it is easy to have pests and diseases if you don't pay attention.

Phalaenopsis is known as the "queen of flowers", and is deeply loved by people for its beautiful butterfly-like form and varieties with deep cultural connotations. Phalaenopsis is widely distributed and has a wide variety of species, among which the white phalaenopsis is the most common. Phalaenopsis likes warmth, humidity, ventilation and scattered light.

The temperature is right. For phalaenopsis, when maintaining it in summer, it is necessary to pay attention to controlling the room temperature. Under normal circumstances, avoid strong sunlight and low temperature and maintain appropriate humidity, the room temperature should not be lower than 18 degrees, the south is conducive to growth, should not be large vertical direct light, can use white yarn to block too strong or hot sunlight, conducive to air circulation.

Watering in moderation. Phalaenopsis prefers moist environments, but should not be overwatered. In summer, it is generally watered once or twice a week, paying attention to concentrated watering and maintaining sufficient high drainage.

When spraying, the water should be even, and the alternation of dry and wet can ensure the health of the flower stems, and at the same time, it is necessary to avoid the flower stems being drenched with water, so as to avoid the phenomenon of rotten roots.

Fertilize in moderation.

During the peak growth period of Phalaenopsis orchid in the summer season, nutrients should be appropriately supplemented. Proper fertilisation during weekly watering, generally with seaweed, can enhance the disease resistance and immunity of phalaenopsis plants, allowing them to thrive in the hot summer months.

Trim shaping. During the summer maintenance period, the flower stems and flowers of Phalaenopsis grow very quickly, so they need to be pruned and shaped regularly. When pruning, pruning the stems under the buds allows more nutrients to be delivered to the roots of the plant, keeping the plant lush and healthy.

Pest control. Summer is the peak season for phalaenopsis growth, as well as when pests and diseases are rampant. Therefore, it is necessary to regularly check the leaves and flower stems of the plant during summer maintenance to see if there are any insect pests, and once found, it is necessary to take timely measures to prevent and control them, so as not to affect the health of the plant.

Avoid injury. During the summer maintenance of phalaenopsis, it is necessary to avoid injuries caused by falls and collisions during handling. In addition, drain the water in a timely manner and do not let the flower pot be placed on the concrete floor, so as not to get infected by bacteria during the wet process of the flower roots.

Tumor reduction and leaf treatment. Some phalaenopsis orchids will grow staring warts from time to time due to factors such as planting environment, improper management or natural aging, which will affect the ornamental effect. Mature staring warts can be cut off with tools such as sterilized scissors or pox forceps, and attention should be paid to sterilization.

Epilogue. The above is the relevant content of how to raise a family maintenance in Phalaenopsis in summer, I hope it can provide a useful reference for you. Phalaenopsis is a very common plant, and although it is very easy to grow and maintain, it is still vulnerable if it is not properly managed.

On weekdays, Phalaenopsis is fed at home, and the temperature should not be less than 15 in winter, otherwise it will lead to the cessation of growth, and death will occur below 10. Of course, when the flowers are bred, they generally use tissue cells, which can be transplanted after the test tube, and can bloom after 2 years, so let's take a look at how to maintain them.

Phalaenopsis blooms in winter when the flowers are withering, but many people will find an embarrassing thing when maintaining them: they do not bloom during the flowering period! That's why it's not well maintained in winter.

In winter, phalaenopsis should control the temperature, reduce water, maintain suitable light and apply a small amount of fertilizer, so that it can grow healthily.

1. Temperature control Phalaenopsis is native to the tropics, and has relatively high requirements for temperature, and its favorite temperature is between 25 -30. Winter temperatures are on the low side, so our priority is to control the temperature. Keep it around 20 during the day and 15 at night, so that it can survive the winter and bloom brightly.

If it is lower than 13, there is a possibility that the phalaenopsis will stop growing, and in severe cases, it will be frostbitten.

Fourth, a small amount of fertilization Phalaenopsis is inseparable from fertilizer, but winter fertilization must be determined according to temperature. Stop fertilizing when the temperature is below 13, because at this time the Phalaenopsis enters the dormant period, and the roots no longer absorb water and fertilizer, and if you fertilize again, it will only cause the Phalaenopsis to rot its roots. When the temperature is above 15, liquid fertilizer can be applied once every half a month, which is good for its growth.

When raising phalaenopsis orchids in winter, you must pay attention to the temperature, then you must reduce the moisture, then you must have enough sunlight, and finally a small amount of fertilizer.

In winter, the temperature is relatively low, so it is necessary to water less, up to twice a week; Keep it in a warm room and don't get cold; Fertilize once a month or so; Get regular sun exposure.
