When do orchids change pots?

Some orchids are thinking about changing pots for orchids, but they suffer from not knowing when and when to change pots. Mastering the right time to change pots to plant orchids is an important part of raising orchids. The orchid scripture of Linghai Lanyan talks about the "six taboos" of planting orchids: "seed taboos in hot heat, severe cold, scorching sun, weak gun, orchid bud opening, rainy species (gun: orchid plant)". It is appropriate to avoid planting and planting.

"six taboos" clearly tells us that under such six circumstances, orchids should not be planted and should be avoided. "Ling Hai Lan Yan" also said: "when orchids are planted in pots, the Jews live separately, but if they are too prosperous, the roots will wither, and if they are not divided repeatedly, the leaves will be weak." According to the method of planting and cultivation, the crude product is one point every three years, and the Guiyang product gets the most every five years (crude product: general orchid, expensive product: high-grade orchid). After the division of Chunlan, the Spring Equinox, Qiulan and Lesser Cold, the old leaves will come to an end, and the new buds will be born without fail. It is clearly pointed out that the right time to plant orchids. The summary of predecessors has important guiding significance for the division and planting of bluegrass.

In general, the traditional turning season should be the Spring Equinox or the Autumn Equinox, while the north should be after the Spring Equinox or before the Autumn Equinox. Due to the differences in climate in different regions, we can also control the temperature according to the temperature. generally speaking, the low temperature is above 10 degrees Celsius, and the high temperature below 30 degrees Celsius is the appropriate temperature for normal basin turning.

According to this, the time of turning the pot of orchid is generally the most suitable in spring and autumn, when the orchid plant is in the mature stage, and the damage rate can be reduced to the lowest. The first half of the year had better be the Spring Equinox to Grain Rain, when the florescence is over, the leaf buds have not yet sprouted, it is not easy to suffer frost injury, and the pot can be turned at the right time. In the second half of the year, it would be better for the Autumn Equinox to Frosts Descent, the orchid will enter a dormant state, then turning the pot will less affect the growth of the orchid. After winter rest and recuperation, nutrition accumulation, it will be able to blossom and sprout well in spring and master the propagation time of orchid ramets. It is also an important link in the conservation of orchids.

Turning the pot is an important measure in the maintenance of orchids, because in the process of cultivating bluegrass, there are always some phenomena that hinder the growth of bluegrass, which must be solved by turning and changing materials, and there are generally seven situations that need to be turned over:

First, the potted orchid after 2023, because the nutrition of the plant has been exhausted, can not meet the needs of the continued development of orchid seedlings, orchid seedlings appear thin and short.

Second, after years of water exposure, the structure of orchid mud has changed, and the plant material has hardened, which affects the permeability of air and water.

Third, there are too many orchid seedlings with intertwined roots, and there is no room for new seedlings and new roots to continue to develop, which also affects the normal growth environment of old seedlings.

Fourth, the plant material is infected by bacteria, fungi or viruses, which brings the survival crisis to the orchid strain.

The fifth is to "turn the basin" for the coordination and unity of pots and plants.

The sixth is to turn the pot in order to plant more seedlings, and the seventh is to turn the pot in order to exchange or sell. But do not turn the basin often at will, do what should be turned, and try not to turn what should not be turned.

At the same time, turning the basin can not be blindly formulaic operation, we must grasp the orchid situation, according to different orchid conditions for different turning basin treatment. Purposeful and targeted reversal of the basin. For example: for diseased grass: "turning the basin" focuses on sterilization and disinfection. The diseased plants should be strictly pruned, cleaned, disinfected, dried and soaked in root-promoting solution. Then dry the root, put it on the pot, and change the fresh cultivation materials. One link is indispensable, although it also kills the Yilan bacteria symbiotic with bluegrass at the same time, which leads to the negative effect of the temporary growth period of bluegrass, but it is worth sterilizing and killing pests in exchange for the life of bluegrass.

For disease-free and weak grass: the focus of turning the basin is to supplement the supply of nutrients, which does not need to disinfect the substrate, but simply prune, soak the root growth-promoting factor, and replace the effective plant material on the basin. Pour "root water" for two days slowly. It not only complements the fertilizer effect, but also reduces the damage to beneficial symbiotic bacteria, and shortens the incubation period.

For disease-free strong grass. The focus of turning the basin is to solve the problem of small expansion of the basin, there is no need to work too carefully, as long as simply flush, trim, split, change part of the matrix on the basin. However, for those who have been sick or whose roots are mostly damaged, it is necessary to soak them with medicine for a period of time, but there is no need to rinse with clean water before soaking, because Langen will expand rapidly in a short period of time after rinsing with clean water. hinders the inhalation and exertion of the drug. If you rinse with clean water, you need to cool and dry before soaking the potion.

Therefore, turning the basin is very simple, but the operation has its complexity and scientific nature. Turning over the basin can promote the activity of vegetative growth, improve the disease prevention resilience and germination rate of orchid plants, and bring vitality to orchids. If the pot is not turned properly, it will also bring potential crisis to the orchid. Especially for some diseases and weak seedlings, it will accelerate their death. To this end, turning the basin is not only an important link in the conservation of bluegrass, but also an orchid cultivation technology that every orchid farmer must experience and master. If not in accordance with its habits and requirements, arbitrary operation will not turn the pot well, bluegrass will suffer. Therefore, we should make great efforts in turning and planting, and follow the guiding ideology of "seven-point planting and three-division management", instead of blindly turning over the basin.
