How to raise orchids in a family, how to raise orchids in a family

For potting soil selection, it is necessary to choose a flower pot with a porous bottom as a container, and mix pine bark and humus soil to make a cultivation substrate; To plant in a pot, you need to pour water into the pot before potting, then put the orchid into the pot, fill the soil for fixation, gently lift up, and straighten out the root system; The frequency of watering should be done after the soil is dry at 3 5 cm below the soil, and then water and moisturize in time.

At home, it is recommended to take potted plants to maintain orchids, and you can choose a tile pot or clay pot with a porous bottom as a cultivation container to improve the drainage of potting soil. When mixing soil, pine bark and humus can be mixed into a cultivation substrate, and mixed with an appropriate amount of diluted ferrous sulfate solution to make the soil slightly acidic.

Before potting, you need to put a layer of broken tiles at the bottom of the pot to avoid blockage of the drainage hole, and then pour water, bury the orchid directly in the pot, and mix it with an appropriate amount of soil for fixation. After the soil filling is completed, the orchid needs to be gently lifted to straighten out the root system so that the root system can grow better.

In the process of daily maintenance of orchids, it is necessary to strictly control the amount of watering, if too much watering, the root system will rot, and in serious cases, the whole plant will wilt and die. Before each watering, it is necessary to observe the dryness and wetness of the soil, and wait for the soil to dry out at 3 5 cm, and then water in time for moisturizing.

Orchids are suitable for growing in a fertile environment, during the growth period, need to apply a thin cake fertilizer water every 10 15 days, and during the orchid bud pregnancy period, it is necessary to apply 1 2 times of superphosphate solution to promote the differentiation and growth of flower buds, so that the plant blooms more bright flowers, and then improve the overall ornamentality.

The home way to raise orchids is to water them regularly and get plenty of light.

Watering orchids should be based on the climate, if the temperature is low, you should control the watering, you can water once every 5-7 days, and you can water it once every 2-3 days in spring and autumn. In summer, if the temperature is high, you can water 1-2 times a day, and the watering should not be too much or too little.

The most suitable temperature is generally 16-24, the highest in summer can not exceed 30, the lowest in winter can not be less than 5, it is best to put it into indoor breeding, so as not to frostbite the orchid, 10-12 during the day is appropriate; If you are breeding indoors, you should always open the windows to ensure air circulation.

Orchids can not be exposed to strong sunlight, when the sun is stronger, they should be shaded, and they should not be exposed to light for a long time, they can be exposed to astigmatism in the morning or afternoon, it is best to put it on the eaves or balcony, and it can be exposed to astigmatism in winter, but also to avoid sun exposure.

Pruning method of orchids

In the process of orchid growth, the orchid leaves should be pruned frequently, and the old leaves should be cut off in time when they are yellow, so as to facilitate ventilation, and the tips of some leaves should be cut off when they are dry. In particular, leaves with pests and diseases should be removed in time to avoid infection.

The safest way is to cut off the flower stems in time after the flowers, and the safest way is to cut off the flower stems at two or three centimeters above the pot surface for the first time, and after a period of time, the remaining old stems will be cut off after withering, so as to prevent new wound infection.

Although the roots of orchids have no ornamental value, they are crucial to the growth of orchids. First of all, the plant is depotted, a part of the soil is shaken off, and the broken roots, old roots, and diseased roots are cut off.

<> breeding orchids, it is necessary to adjust the frequency of fertilization according to the changes of the season, to provide the nutrients needed for the growth of the plants, in the rainy season, to build a rain shelter for the orchids, to avoid the root system of the plant water rot, the later maintenance should be every 2-3 years for the orchid to replace the potting soil, so that the plant grows more vigorously.

1. Scientific fertilization.

Orchids have different nutrient needs in different mold opening seasons, when breeding orchids in spring and autumn, they need to be fertilized every 2-3 weeks, nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium compound fertilizers can be used, and they also need to be sprayed every 20 days to orchids with potassium dihydrogen phosphate to promote their flower bud differentiation, and fertilization needs to be postponed in summer and winter.

2. Rain shelter measures.

Orchids are not tolerant to waterlogging, when breeding orchids, they need to be watered according to the dryness and wetness of the soil, and they also need to be moved indoors for maintenance during the rainy season, and they can also be built to avoid poor plant growth, and when watering orchids, they need to use non-polluting rainwater or spring water.

3. Replace the potting soil.

When cultivating orchids, if the soil is not replaced for a long time, it will cause the soil to become hardened and stiff, so that the orchid root system does not breathe well, and the potting soil needs to be replaced every 2-3 years.

4. Maintenance management.

When maintaining orchids, you need to provide them with the light they need to grow, you can place the orchids outdoors in a place that can receive enough light, and you also need to do shade measures for the orchids when the light is too strong, you can use shade nets to cover the orchids to avoid sunburn.
