How to raise Cymbidium

Many friends of Cymbidium don't know much about Cymbidium, so they buy it when they look beautiful, and then look for information to find out how to raise Cymbidium. In fact, Cymbidium is easy to grow from buying back to falling, but the difficulty lies in compound flowers, that is, it is more difficult to blossom in the second year.

First, how to raise Cymbidium

Cymbidium can adapt to low temperature, 10 to 30 degrees is basically no problem, more than 30 degrees, it is best to use ventilation, humidity and shade to reduce injury. Summer and autumn, rainy season, during the day should not be higher than 30 degrees, once the temperature exceeds 30 degrees, to increase air circulation, reduce the foliar temperature, there must be an obvious temperature difference between day and night to stimulate its flower bud differentiation, not higher than 14 degrees at night, otherwise the flower buds can not differentiate, even if the differentiation will wither early. Ensure good ventilation during the day in spring, and keeping it in a cooler environment can prolong the flowering period, because the outdoor temperature is usually lower than 10 degrees at night, so don't leave it outside.

After the surface of the basin soil is dry, it should be fully watered, thoroughly at one time, and usually disperse water around the orchid basin to increase air humidity. Unless the environment is particularly dry, do not spray water to the leaves, otherwise the leaves will appear brown spots, reduce moisture during flowering and before new buds grow, keep the basin soil slightly wet, and increase water demand after the new buds grow. The temperature also affects the watering correspondingly, the water quantity decreases when the temperature is low, the temperature is high, and increases accordingly. There is no need to apply fertilizer at flowering stage, but the concentration is low between solid fertilizer and liquid fertilizer at budding stage. Liquid standard fertilizer is generally diluted 1000 times, once every two weeks, and a little less solid fertilizer is enough.

Good ventilation can ensure the normal growth of Cymbidium, indoor planting, as far as possible to open windows to ensure air circulation, high temperature or closed environment as far as possible to use electric fans to increase air circulation.

Cymbidium likes light and can accept direct sunlight from the end of October to the whole winter, with 30% shading in spring and 30% to 40% in summer. If the balcony is planted, the autumn and winter balcony should also avoid too high temperature and too strong sunshine, lack of light and adverse growth.

Second, suggestions on the compound flowering of Cymbidium

1. As Lunar New year Flowers, they usually bring pots, so there is no need to change pots. After checking a lot of masters of compound flowers, they do not change pots, and the long roots of orchids in the pots do not need to be sorted out. The master said that Cymbidium blossoms in a small pot.

2. If the bare root seedlings do not have pots, they can be cultivated with common plants such as medium-sized granular bark and humus soil. The pots should not be too large, and the planting method is similar to that of national orchids. If the number of seedlings in a pot is too much, it can be divided into pots. Generally, 3-4 seedlings are divided into one pot, and it is not easy to reflower if there are too many seedlings.

3. Balcony culture needs to be cultivated in sunny places in spring, without shade, and in summer, the key is to need good ventilation and more compound fertilizer (several trees are slightly more than the demand of national orchid culture, that is, thin fertilizer is applied frequently, such as the same fertilizer. National orchid needs to be diluted 1000 times, then Cymbidium cymbidium needs to be diluted 1000 times), watering frequently (can not dry thoroughly, dryness is very harmful to orchids It can be watered with 30% water content. You can leave it outside if you can. Generally speaking, it is extensive management.

4. Cymbidium needs vernalization. At the end of autumn, you can move into the house after raising the temperature below 14 degrees at night for about 55 days. Spray ventilation is needed to cool down if it is higher than 30 degrees in summer.

5. The disease of Cymbidium can be treated in the same way as the national orchid.

Summary: mainly strong light, more fertilizer, autumn temperature difference to promote flowers, to meet these conditions can be compound flowers.
