How to raise Cymbidium angustifolia Culture methods and points for attention

Cymbidium is a highly ornamental plant, its main viewing point is the leaves, its leaves are evergreen all the year round, different from the general Cymbidium, its leaves are smaller and more, so it has the name "Qianye". Now many people like to raise Chiba at home, but before breeding, what we most want to know is its breeding method!

How to raise Chiba orchid

1. Light. Chiba prefers a semi-shady environment and needs plenty of sunlight in the process of growing. However, it should be noted that if the light is too strong or insufficient, the leaves are easy to fade and turn yellow. Pay attention to shade when the sun is strong in summer so as not to burn the plant. In winter, it should be questioned to keep the light of the worms in order to avoid the lack of light and the color of the leaves.

2. Temperature. Cymbidium likes warm and humid climate and is not resistant to cold. The suitable growth temperature is 20 to 24 ℃. If the temperature is too high, the leaves are easy to turn yellow and dry, so we should pay attention to cooling and ventilation in summer. Winter temperature is low, it is necessary to maintain a certain overwintering temperature, not lower than 5 ℃.

Culture methods and matters needing attention of Cymbidium chinensis

1. Culture methods:

1. Watering. Cymbidium can grow vigorously in spring and autumn, so watering should be adequate, and the basin soil should always be kept moist, but not stagnant water. The high temperature in summer should be sprayed frequently to increase humidity, and the amount of water should be gradually reduced in autumn.

2. Fertilization. Cymbidium can be applied once a month in the peak growing season, and topdressing should be stopped in winter.

3. Pruning. The growth rate of Cymbidium is very fast, and with the passage of time, the plant will soon grow vigorously. In order to maintain a good plant shape, it is necessary to often reshape, cut off the branches that affect the plant shape, keep the plant shape beautiful, and pruning can sprout many new branches to make the plant shape fuller.

4. Change the basin. Because of its fast growth and easy to grow all over the basin, Chiba should change the basin every two years. The best time to change the basin is in spring, and the sandy soil with rich humus, loose and fertile soil and good drainage and permeability should be used.

2. points for attention:

The main results are as follows: 1. Fertilizing too much exceeds the requirement of the plant. At the beginning, the leaves are shiny and uneven, after the roots rot, the leaves will be yellow. Should stop fertilizing, irrigate more water, or turn the pot to clean the root and replace the new soil.

2. If the basin has not been turned over for a long time. The various nutrient elements in the basin soil have been exhausted, the three elements of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium have not been replenished in time, the plant is lack of nutrients, and the leaves are yellow and thin. Fertile loam and fertile water should be replaced in time.

What if the leaves of Cymbidium are yellowing?

The solution to the yellowing of the leaves of Cymbidium is also very simple. If it is the cause of lighting, it is necessary to find a solution in this respect. Choose a semi-overcast environment, but to ensure that Chiba can receive enough sunlight every day, and must pay attention to shade in summer to avoid burns. If it is the temperature, it is necessary to find a way to cool down the temperature.

Diseases and insect pests of Cymbidium chinense and its control

1. Root rot. Prevention and treatment: if root rot occurs due to excessive watering, watering can be controlled, and the rotten roots should be cut off and replanted. If it is caused by fungi and pests, it is not only necessary to re-trim the roots, but also to change the soil and replace it with sterilized fresh soil. The occurrence of root rot can also be prevented by spraying.

2. Scale insects. Prevention and control methods: prevention should be given priority to when the damage caused by scale insects occurs in Cymbidium. In the usual daily maintenance, we should pay attention to strengthen ventilation to avoid the harm of shell insects. The growth status of Cymbidium is often too long, and it should be detected and prevented as early as possible. If the shell bug occurs, you can spray it with 50% marathon emulsion 1000Mel 1500 times every 7 days, and spray 2Mel 3 times in succession.

Chiba must pay attention to its light and temperature when breeding, and don't put it outdoors at high temperatures in summer. In the breeding time also needs timely watering and fertilization, pruning is also very important, only these work are done in place, in order to make the growth of Chiba better.
