How to manage Phalaenopsis (flower friends' experience)

Many flower friends' Phalaenopsis are bought or sent by others, so how to manage Phalaenopsis has become the primary issue that flower friends need to consider. although Phalaenopsis is not easy to feed, it is also difficult to raise it well. this paper summarizes the daily management and matters needing attention of Phalaenopsis according to the experience of flower friends, for flower friends' reference.

Hua you A:

My secret is just two words: no water. Flowering Phalaenopsis, I do not water, put in the south floating windowsill, light during the day, winter air conditioning at night. Basically, after three or four months, the temperature warms up, the planting substrate (water moss) dries up and pours less water to keep the flower blooming, and the bud will bloom slowly, and sometimes there will be a new flower bud.

My Phalaenopsis can bloom again in the second year, the method is: all thanks, cut off the flower branches, water enough to keep the leaves alive, to November application of thin fertilizer water, will report flower branches, a large number of blossoms after the water.

Phalaenopsis can not be kept long before and after the Spring Festival, because of improper watering, as soon as it is watered, the flowers will fall.

Hua you B:

1. The common cultivation medium of Phalaenopsis is mainly water moss, and the container in which it is raised is also very important. I bought small baskets for silk flowers and small baskets of wood strips, which you will see in a moment.

2. Phalaenopsis likes high temperature, high humidity, ventilated and breathable environment, the temperature can be maintained at about 26 degrees Celsius, the overwintering temperature is not less than 15 ℃, and the air humidity is 50-80%. If the air humidity is too low, you can use a humidifier or spray water on the leaves 2 or 3 times a day, remember not to spray flowers when blooming, which can easily lead to early withering of flowers and shortening of florescence.

3. Phalaenopsis most avoid strong direct light, can see more sunlight in winter, put it in ventilated scattered light place in summer, and should do shading outside.

4. Phalaenopsis root is fleshy root, stagnant water is easy to rot root, the following mentioned the choice of basket as a container for Phalaenopsis. I soak the basin every 20 days or so (usually foliar spray). After soaking into the water, hang up the basket and dry it and put it back in the same place. Phalaenopsis is afraid of concentrated fertilizer, the concentration of fertilizer solution should be low, and a small amount of orchid special nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium total nutrient compound fertilizer should be mixed in the water each time. Flowering period can be watered but not fertilized, low temperature or rainy days had better not be watered.
