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

Hello! <>

Phalaenopsis cultivation method:

1. Flower peduncle germination and propagation.

Phalaenopsis is often propagated by the peduncle germination method, and the residual flowers and peduncles are cut off in time after it blooms, and 3-4 subsections are retained at the ungerminated bud nodes, and the bracts are removed. It is also necessary to apply a germination agent on the bud point, put it in a semi-shaded and warm place, and new flower seedlings can grow in two or three months. After the new seedlings grow, the base is wrapped with water moss, and the mother plant is cut and planted separately.

2. The substrate is suitable.

Phalaenopsis has extremely high requirements for substrate, and attention should be paid to the substrate environment during cultivation. To ensure that it is soft, breathable and permeable, it can be mixed with peat moss, moss, sawdust, bark, coconut peat, etc.

3. The light temperature is suitable.

Phalaenopsis prefers warm environments and is extremely cold tolerant. It is best to provide it with an environment of 20-25 at ordinary times, and the windows must be opened frequently for ventilation in the high temperature environment in summer to ensure good ventilation. In winter, it is moved indoors and the temperature is controlled at 10 or more.

Although it is shade-tolerant, it should not be placed in a cool place for a long time, and it should be exposed to more astigmatism, otherwise it will affect flowering.

4. Sufficient fertilizer and water.

Phalaenopsis likes a moist environment, and if it is found that the substrate is dry, it needs to be watered and moisturized in time, and the amount of water is well controlled, and it is strictly forbidden to have water accumulation. If the climate is extremely dry, it is necessary not only to water, but also to spray water frequently and increase the humidity. In the peak growing season, it consumes a lot of nutrients, and in order to promote vigorous growth, it is necessary to apply thin fertilizer frequently, and apply diluted fertilizer.

Phalaenopsis can not be soil-cultivated, it needs to be used as a medium with water moss, and the planting pot should not be too large, two or three fingers larger than the root system, soak the moss in the water for half an hour before use, take it out and wring it out, wrap the root system and put it in the pot, don't make it too tight, the root system of the phalaenopsis moss package just bought is wrapped very tightly in order not to water in the sales process. Don't make so much moss yourself, ensure the breathability of the roots, and water moss 9 percent is dry and watering, so that the roots will not rot. Phalaenopsis is an aerial root, and it is easy to rot the roots when watered frequently.

The flowering period does not need to be fertilized, after the flowering period, some phalaenopsis special nutrient solution is mixed with water fertilizer each time according to the minimum proportion of instructions, and the spline is cut short from the base one inch after flowering, and the flowering will be good in the coming year. After one year of use, the water retention and air permeability of water moss deteriorates, so try to change the medium as much as possible after flowering in early winter and early spring.

Nowadays, many families have purchased Phalaenopsis bonsai plants to decorate furniture or gardens, but many people don't know how to breed them. When we plant phalaenopsis in our family, whether it is a potted plant or want to plant it in the yard, we need to provide sufficient nutrient conditions for phalaenopsis, we generally have to choose some humus and river sand soil with greater fertility, garden soil, etc. as pot soil to plant, and at the same time choose a pot with drainage, so as to avoid the root rot caused by water accumulation, about 1 year or so we have to replace the potting soil. In addition, if we breed phalaenopsis at home, we should also give it suitable light conditions, we can generally plant phalaenopsis in a balcony or courtyard with better light conditions, so that phalaenopsis can receive more light, which can promote its growth and development.

Reasonable water and fertilizer conditions are also very important, generally to ensure that the soil is in a moist state when growing, and at the same time about half a month to apply fertilizer, so as to ensure the growth of Phalaenopsis.

First, breeding conditions.

1. Soil: For family cultivation of phalaenopsis, try to use weakly acidic soil with good air permeability and high nutrient content. Specifically, it can be prepared with a mixture of pine needles, shredded bark, peanut shells, and clay balls.

2. Temperature: During the growth period, it needs to be given a temperature of 16-30; In the summer, the temperature needs to be below 32; In winter, the temperature needs to be kept between 13-16.

3. Water: It likes moisture, usually needs to be replenished in time, can not let the soil dry out, and needs to spray some water mist on its leaves in time to maintain air humidity.

4. Light: It likes semi-shaded growth conditions, and usually puts it in a place with scattered light. In the summer, you need to be shaded.

Second, the method of reproduction.

For home propagation, the most commonly used method is peduncle germination. Specifically, after flowering, the broken flowers are removed from the flower branches, and then the flower branches are disinfected. After that, the bracts are removed, and the germination drug is applied to its bud points.

After that, the plant is placed in the dark environment at 25-28 days, and after about 90 days, the small shoots will grow roots, and then they can be cut off and transplanted into new pots.

How to raise phalaenopsis at home: flower pots, cultivation, watering, temperature control, proper shading, and reasonable fertilization.

1. Choose a flower pot

When cultivating phalaenopsis, it is necessary to choose a suitable flower pot, the more common ones are tile pots and plastic pots. If you want to decorate, it is recommended to choose a beautiful flower pot such as a glazed pot, but the size of the pot must match the phalaenopsis plant you choose.

2. Cultivation medium

Phalaenopsis is an epiphytic orchid that grows on tree trunks or wet rocks, and in order to simulate this environment, a mixed substrate can be made with bark blocks, moss, vermiculite, etc.

3. Proper watering

The amount of watering of phalaenopsis can be determined according to the season and climate change, and more watering can be done during the peak growing season, which is in the morning on a sunny day, but it should be noted that no water can accumulate.

4. Control the temperature

Phalaenopsis prefers warmth and is placed above 15 places. If the temperature exceeds 15 in the morning in the spring, it can be moved outdoors for maintenance, and in the autumn, when the temperature drops below 15, it needs to be moved indoors for the winter.

5. Appropriate shading

Phalaenopsis is suitable for growing in a semi-shady environment, not strong direct light or summer exposure, when cultivated at home, it should be properly shaded, placed in a cool and ventilated place, and usually sunbathed and astigmatized.

6. Reasonable fertilization

Phalaenopsis can be fertilized every other week during the peak growing season, and once a month during the slow growing season. In winter, when the temperature drops below 15, fertilization should be stopped immediately.

The family cultivation method of phalaenopsis needs to start from the preparation of substrate, light and temperature conditions, reasonable water and fertilizer, etc.

1. Prepare the matrix.

Home maintenance phalaenopsis, first need to prepare a suitable substrate, it has higher requirements for substrate shed, need to grow in the substrate with good aeration, good drainage and water retention and sufficient nutrients in the substrate, so generally can be used peat moss, snake sawdust and water moss and other materials as the substrate, the breeding process also needs to replace the substrate every 1-2 years.

2. Light and temperature conditions.

Home maintenance Phalaenopsis also needs to have a suitable light temperature, it is best to maintain it in a place with sufficient scattered light, must avoid it being exposed to strong light, its most suitable growth temperature is between 16-30, so the breeding process also needs to do a good job of temperature control measures, to avoid temperature higher than 35 or lower than 15.

3. Reasonable water and fertilizer.

Family maintenance phalaenopsis also needs to be reasonably applied to it water and fertilizer, daily to keep the substrate slightly moist, air humidity between 60-80% is the most suitable, it has a higher demand for fertilizer, spring and summer to apply a thin liquid fertilizer every 7-10 days, autumn and winter to apply every 2-3 weeks, so as to meet its growth needs.

The growth habits of Phalaenopsis orchids

Phalaenopsis loves warmth and cold. The suitable temperature for growth is 15-20, and the growth will stop when it is below 10 in winter, and it is easy to die if it is below 5. Most of the wild phalaenopsis orchids in the origin are born on forest trunks or branches, and are often next to high temperature and humid rivers, the roots are exposed to the air, and can absorb water from the humid air, so they are suitable for survival in a high temperature and humid environment, and at the same time like ventilation and avoid stuffiness, like scattered light and avoid strong direct light.
