Why don't orchids blossom? What are the matters needing attention in the process of breeding?

Orchids have the moral meaning of expressing precious friendship, symbolizing noble and noble character, and symbolizing wealth and longevity. It is a kind of flower that many flower lovers like to maintain, but very few people raise orchids well. Some people even keep orchids in their homes for several years, but they don't blossom, so why don't orchids bloom? What are the matters needing attention in the process of breeding?

First, the reason why orchids do not bloom

1. Environmental discomfort

Orchids are more selective to the environment, especially the duration of sunlight and the humidity of the soil, which can not guarantee these two points, the plant can not blossom.

Solution: it likes places with low temperatures, and the soil in the growing environment should be warm and humid. Make the space for plant growth as large as possible, which is conducive to air circulation, so that you can avoid the problem that the plant can not blossom because of the inappropriate selection of growth environment.

two。 Insufficient temperature difference

Constant temperature has less stimulation on the bud of the plant, which will cause the plant not to blossom.

Solution: it likes the place where there is a big difference in temperature before flowering, because if it stimulates the plant, the plant will blossom easily. So if you control the temperature difference, the plant will blossom more likely.

3. Improper watering

Unreasonable watering will affect plant growth, too much watering will rot roots, watering too little can not achieve the effect of watering.

Solution: it has a large demand for water, but it is not as much as possible. wait until the soil is dry and keep the leaves of the plant properly wet. only in this way can the situation that the plant can not bloom caused by unreasonable watering can be solved.

Matters needing attention in culturing orchids

1. Light intensity

Orchids are very afraid of the sun, we try our best to put it in the dark, and we should take shade measures in spring, summer and autumn so as not to burn the leaves. If the temperature is not too high in the morning, you can put the orchid outdoors for a while, which can enhance its intensity and blossom faster!

two。 Pay attention to proper watering

There are many varieties of orchids, so it is best to know the watering habits of different varieties before watering. In general, the amount of water for orchids should be kept in a moderate state as far as possible, so that the pot soil should not be too dry or too wet. In the spring and autumn season, it takes about three days to water. When the temperature rises in summer, it is during the growing period of orchids, so you need to water twice a day. When watering, you should pay attention to prevent water from dripping on the leaves and causing black rot. It is OK to water once a week in winter, because the orchids are dormant at this time.

3. Fertilization intensity

Orchids need to change the pot soil once a year during their growth and apply fertilizer twice at the same time. The first time you need to plant fertilizer in the soil, you usually choose a compound fertilizer containing nitrogen, and then you need to replace it with thin water or foliar fertilizer. After applying fertilizer, the orchid will grow more vigorously, and the flowering speed will naturally increase. In fact, if there are conditions, we can also spray some plant ash solution on the leaves for maintenance before the orchid blossoms.

4. Suitable temperature

Generally speaking, the best growth temperature of orchids is less than 20 degrees, so friends in the north have to keep the orchids warm in autumn and winter. Winter indoor maintenance temperature as long as not less than 10 degrees will not cause harm to orchids, to Grain Rain season can move orchids to outdoor conservation.

5. Soil selection

Orchid planting soil is generally humus-based, this soil contains a lot of nutrients and good air permeability, so it is very conducive to the growth of orchids. If you can not find this kind of soil, you can also use your own man-made cultivated soil for maintenance.
