The latest orchid summer conservation management points

Orchid is a common flower plant in China, which has a large culture area in our country. With the gradual entry of summer, the temperature is getting higher and higher, which will have a great impact on the growth of orchids. If the maintenance and management work is not done well, it is very easy to lead to the death of orchids. So how to manage orchids in summer? The following editor will give you a brief introduction, let's have a look!

1. Pay attention to shading

After entering the summer, the light intensity of the sun is very strong, and the direct light will have a great impact on the growth of orchids. If there is no timely shading, then the sun shining directly on the orchid leaves will lead to sunburn and other adverse phenomena. As a result, the leaves of orchids could not carry out photosynthesis, the accumulation of nutrients decreased and the flowering rate decreased. Therefore, after entering the summer, we must do a good job of shading the orchids. Build a good sunshade net to avoid direct sunlight, but also play a cooling role.

2. Proper watering

Because of the high temperature in summer, the growth of orchids will be restrained and slow down. At this time, the demand for water is relatively small, so we should pay attention to control the amount of water. Generally, watering is carried out after the soil is dry, which can fully meet the water needs of orchids. After watering, pay attention to ensure that the shed has good ventilation and can blow dry the moisture in the center of the orchid. But we must pay attention to control the amount of water, not too much, otherwise it will easily lead to rotten roots of orchids. And can not be carried out at noon, to prevent high-temperature root burning, should be watered in the morning and evening.

3. Stop fertilization

The reason for stopping fertilization in summer is also because of the high temperature in summer. Because the high temperature in summer will have a great impact on the roots of orchids, the roots will gradually enter a semi-dormant state. At this time, the roots will gradually stop absorbing nutrients and water, so if fertilizing at this time, it will not only be unable to provide nutrition for orchids, but may also lead to root burning and fertilizer damage, resulting in the death of orchids. And it will increase the cost of planting, so we should pay more attention to not fertilizing in summer.

4. Strengthen ventilation

The ventilation of orchids in summer can not be ignored, if the temperature in the shed is too high, it is all hot air, which can easily lead to the phenomenon of lack of water in orchids, otherwise it may also lead to various diseases of orchids. It leads to the decrease of orchid ornamental and yield, and affects the planting benefit. So after entering the summer, we must pay more attention to the orchid, do not let the orchid in too closed space. It is necessary to improve the permeability of the shed and reduce the temperature in the shed.

The above is a brief introduction to the key points of maintenance and management of orchids in summer. The management of orchids in summer is very important, if it is not managed properly, it will cause serious economic losses, so we must pay more attention to it. That's all for today's introduction.
