How to water the ink orchid (how often)

Reasonable watering is the key to aquaculture. Due to poor indoor air fluidity and slow evaporation of water, it is advisable to keep the substrate dry and water once every 7 to 10 days.

How to fertilize Mo Lan

The fertilization of Cymbidium should abide by the principle of applying thin fertilizer frequently, and it also depends on the variety of orchid, the weather, the temperature and the growth of the plant. In general, spring orchid and cymbidium apply nitrogen and potash fertilizer in summer, Jianlan needs phosphorus and potash fertilizer, while cold orchid can not apply any fertilizer. In addition, do not apply fertilizer to weak plants on cloudy days or when the temperature is too high.

How to raise Mo Lan

1, soil: Mo Lan Xi micro-tide soil environment, should not make it suffer from drought, the water used had better be soft water.

2. Fertilization: it has little demand for fertilizer, and the plant can grow better without base fertilizer. It should be irrigated with dilute liquid fertilizer once a year in spring and autumn, and topdressing should be stopped during dormancy.

3. Illumination: to shade the magnolia in summer, we should ensure that the plant receives proper direct sunlight, otherwise the plant growth is poor and the development is poor, but it is necessary to ensure that the plant is exposed to sunlight before 10:00 every morning to avoid direct sunlight at noon and afternoon, otherwise it is not conducive to the normal growth and development of the plant.

4, the environment: the ink sex likes the air circulation environment, carries on the ventilation when the relative humidity is too low, had better spray water at the same time, helps to increase the air humidity.

5. Temperature: Cymbidium prefers warm environment and grows well in the temperature range of 16 ℃ ~ 28 ℃.

6. Pest control: plants are prone to sunburn when they receive too much sunshine in summer. The symptom is that yellow spots appear on the surface of the leaves, then turn black gradually, and in severe cases, the whole leaf dries up and dies. The prevention and control method is: avoid direct sunlight for too long, should achieve timely shading. In balcony cultivation, Magnolia is prone to root rot and is often attacked by shell insects, ants and other harmful animals.

Propagation method of Cymbidium

Cymbidium is mainly propagated by ramets, which is carried out in March every spring. When dividing plants, it is necessary to choose acidic soil rich in humus, and purple sand basin or plastic basin is the best choice for orchid basin. To select large plants that have been planted for about three to five years as propagation materials, you can't water them a few days before the split, because the roots and leaves of the plant are fragile when there is sufficient water, and they wilt and become soft when they are short of water, so they are less vulnerable and easy to operate. after dividing the plant, put the plant under the shade or under the eaves to avoid direct light.

It turns out that Cymbidium is propagated by ramet, which is not only easy to operate, but also greatly improves the survival rate of seeds, so it is suggested that we should plant in this way. In addition, in the process of breeding, we must pay attention to the prevention and control of diseases and insect pests, which has a great impact on it.
