Treatment of dehydrated orchid seedlings

Whether it's going up the mountain to pick back the orchid seedlings. It is still the last leftover seedling bought from the stall. Orchid seedlings, or mail-ordered orchid seedlings, may have the dangerous phenomenon of dehydration and wrinkling. Among them, the dehydration of orchid seedlings is mostly caused by improper mailing and packaging, or due to the delay for too long. The treatment of orchid seedlings like this can be treated in the following ways

One: the dehydrated orchid seedlings, which have been sterilized and dewormed, are in danger, allowing bacteria and insects to continue to harm. Will hasten its death. Therefore, it should be sterilized and dewormed before it can save its life. First of all, after getting the seedling, you should immediately remove some of the tissue with plaque. And pay attention to appropriate expansion, at the same time add 1% to 2% of edible rice vinegar of high-efficiency broad-spectrum germicidal insecticide 700-1000 times liquid spray, dry and then spray once or twice.

Second, intermittent immersion in nutrient solution can provide energy and correct dehydration. Intermittently soak dehydrated orchid seedlings. The fleshy root of orchid has high water content, and the dehydrated root absorbs water quickly. If the root is soaked for a long time, it will burst the root epidermis if it expands too fast. In this way, if the Langen is soaked in the liquid for a long time or buried in the basin soil with high water content, it is easy to fester. Therefore, it is necessary to spray disinfectant and nutrient solution first, and then carry out intermittent soaking. When choosing the soaking solution, you can choose 50% glucose 500x liquid or white granulated sugar 500x liquid, ginseng essence 200x liquid, edible rice vinegar 250x liquid plant health 800x liquid, triacontanol 1000 times liquid, orchid king 1000 times liquid and so on.

The above diluents can be used alternately. Soak for about one minute at a time and then soak after being cool and dry. Soak five or six times in a row.

Three: turn over the root of the sun. After soaking, the dehydration of the roots and leaves of the orchid seedlings has been basically corrected, and the orchid root is full of water. It is necessary to cover the leaves with a sunshade net and turn the exposed roots slightly to promote the scab formation of the wound and activate the vitality of the orchid seedlings.

Fourth: the upper basin is closed to manage the orchid root after being cool and dry, use the moisture-rich culture soil to go up the pot. Then put it in a cool and ventilated place for closed management. depending on the degree of dryness and wetness of the soil on the basin, the root water was watered with diluted nutrient solution three or four days later.

It will take about one to three months to put in a closed environment until the orchid seedling survives. And then transferred to normal management.
