During the growth period, Phnom Penh Tiger Pilan should be fattened once a week, which can be carried out with watering at the same time. It is best to choose fusible compound fertilizer or some fungicides. If in spring, you can apply some rotten bean cake fertilizer, and you will stop adding fertilizer after winter.

2. Water

If there is too much water, the bottom of the leaf is easy to rot, and if there is stagnant water at the bottom of the basin, it is more likely to rot. Wait until the bottom of the basin is dry before watering. If it is a hot season, it is necessary to pour more water to make the soil wetter. Because Phnom Penh Tiger Pilan is afraid of bright light, some shading measures need to be taken in the hot summer, or directly moved back indoors and placed on the inner edge of the balcony. It should be placed in the sunny area as far as possible in winter, basically, it does not need to be watered much, or even not, if the breeding basin is a plastic basin, it is even more necessary to release less water, once stagnant water will cause rotten roots.

3. Pruning

Its growth rate is relatively fast, so the basin is easy to fill the space, so every once in a while we have to prune the old leaves, withered leaves and thick branches and leaves.

4. Change the basin

Phnom Penh tiger orchid is a perennial plant, which needs to be changed every 2 years, and the soil should also be changed after changing the basin, so as to maintain the fertility of the basin soil.

II. Points for attention

The best growth time of Phnom Penh tiger Pilan is in spring and summer, but seedlings can be cultivated all the year round. The only thing that needs to be ensured is that the basin soil should be breathable. The requirement for the soil is not high, and it is best to use sandy soil. To maintain 75% to 85 humidity after cutting, the temperature should be controlled at about 27, not less than 12 degrees in winter, otherwise the plants will be frostbitten.
