How to raise tiger skin orchid in the latest summer
In hot summer, when the temperature is higher than 32 °C, many potted flowers and plants will go into dormancy and stop growing. Although this foliage plant can also be dormant in summer heat, as long as we can do a good job of maintenance and management, we can also make it avoid dormancy and keep sprouting and growing vigorously.
Tiger skin orchid is a plant native to arid regions of Africa, even if it is transplanted to other parts of the world, it still has the characteristics of drought tolerance. And as a succulent plant, it is also very afraid of waterlogging, otherwise it is easy to cause rotten roots. But as long as the growth environment is suitable, even in summer, it can maintain exuberant growth and even keep sprouting.
For many flowers and plants, don't expect them to bring us much ornamental value in summer, but to ensure that they can survive the winter safely and smoothly. But Tiger Pilan can maintain exuberant growth in summer, it can be said that summer is also its peak growing season. As long as we can do a good job in the maintenance and management of the following four aspects in summer, it can always maintain exuberant growth and keep sprouting.
I. timely shading
Although Tiger Pilan is a light-loving plant, it not only has a high temperature in summer, but also has a high light intensity. For a hopeful plant like Tiger Pilan, it is not suitable to be exposed to strong light or scorching sun for a long time. Otherwise, the markings on the plant leaves, including the gilt color of the leaves will darken, or even disappear, there is no sense of gloss, the leaves will also turn white, thus reducing the ornamental nature of potted plants.
Therefore, the summer should be timely shade, suitable for pots placed in a bright and ventilated place with sufficient scattered light to maintain. When the ambient temperature is higher than 30 °C, it should be shaded in time. However, we should not give no light at all, otherwise the leaves of Tiger Pilan will also have the above adverse symptoms.
2. Proper watering
Like other tropical succulent plants, Hu Pilan has the characteristics of drought tolerance and water tolerance, and its leaves are broad and thick, its own water storage capacity is strong, and it can survive even in relatively dry soil. However, if there is excessive water shortage and drought for a long time, it is also easy to make its leaves become withered. After all, its leaves are wide and have strong water transpiration in summer.
However, if you water too much, it is easy to cause stagnant water in the basin and rot the roots. And the hot summer season can not be watered, watering also need to move towards the noon time when the temperature is the highest. Generally soak in small water in the morning and evening to keep the basin soil moist. And although in summer, watering also needs to be dry and thoroughly watered. It is usually appropriate to wait until the surface layer of 3 cm thick soil dries before watering.
Third, thin fertilizer and little application
In summer, many flowers and plants are in a difficult state, their growth will slow down, so they generally need to stop fertilizing in time. However, Tiger Pilan can also maintain vigorous growth in summer, so it will also consume a lot of nutrients, so it also needs proper topdressing to promote growth. However, its root system is not developed, and it is hot and hot in summer, and it is easy to burn roots if too much fertilizer is applied.
To apply fertilizer to Tiger Pilan in summer, we should adhere to the principle of thin fertilizer and less application. We can dilute organic fertilizer and water according to 50-100 times of water. When we need to water Tiger Pilan, we can irrigate the root instead of clean water. Or open a small trench around the inner wall of the flowerpot, then sprinkle some slow-release fertilizer evenly, and then backfill the soil. With watering, the nutrients in the slow-release fertilizer will seep down and be absorbed by the roots of the plant.
Fourth, change the basin correctly
If it is not necessary to change pots, it is not appropriate to give tiger skin orchid pots in summer. Because giving flowerpots to flowers and plants will more or less cause some damage to the roots of plants, while the high temperature and hot weather in summer often bring difficulties to the pots of plants. At the same time, in the environment of high temperature and humidity, it is also very easy to cause wound infection.
However, if there is a lodging phenomenon in Tiger Pilan, and the reason is caused by rotting roots caused by excessive watering, then the basin can only be changed even in summer as a last resort. At this time, it is necessary to remove the plant from the pot and trim the root in time, and then replant it with a new pot and new soil.
