Cultivation of Cymbidium

The cultivation of Han orchids varies from place to place, and although these training methods have their own characteristics, the training methods used by the editors are still planted in accordance with the middle volume. Plant with jade soil (block soil). I have not studied any special training methods for Han Orchid, but there are many materials in this area. I would like to introduce the cultivation method of the authoritative person of Han Orchid producing area as follows for reference. The following is a comprehensive excerpt from the author of the Xin of Cold Orchid, Yuli Shijin, the city of Samo Palace, and the cold orchid cultivation method of Koji Matsushita Shouguang. The most important thing in the cultivation of cold orchid is to cultivate soil. If the cultivated soil is not used properly, no matter how precious and lovely the precious variety is, it will be in an irrevocable situation. That is to say, how to cultivate soil has a great influence on the performance of cultivation, so it is necessary to choose proper cultivation. According to my personal research, using the following matching soil, we can get quite good results year by year, so I am confident that this is a near-perfect experience. When preparing culture soil, all kinds of materials used as culture soil should be put in the sun for about two hours to kill earthworms and microorganisms, in the proportion of rotten fertile soil and light stone sand (smaller than rice grains). Natural soil or laterite and black soil-any of which five-fold, mixed together. This modulation method is the safest for beginners. Good results can also be obtained according to the following modulation methods, that is, mountain soil Wuhe, light stone sand 1 liter, rotten fertile soil 1 liter, mixed together. Or press mountain soil 1 liter, light stone sand 1 liter, rotten fertile soil Wuhe mixed use can also be. Light stone sand is the driving force to absorb a large amount of water and prevent drying, so it is suitable to be used for blending and cultivating soil. Light stone sand can protect the root of orchid and has strong drainage power, and it is easy to carry at the same time, so it is indispensable in the cultivation technology of cold orchid. From the nature of Hanlan's preference for secluded places, the strong sunlight is absolutely disadvantageous to it. However, April, May, and June is the most important period for germination, and sometimes it is suitable for it to be exposed to light (not for the whole day), and it is necessary to turn the basin once during the irradiation, because when the sunlight cannot cover the whole basin, it will only sprout in the place exposed to the sun, which can easily clutter Lanzi and reduce the ornamental value. Night dew is the most important thing in plant growth, and it is also important to make orchids experience night dew. After receiving night dew, orchid can freshen the leaves and increase their luster. In addition, orchids with poor growth period often suffer from night dew, and they can gradually recover, and they can also be sprayed with a spray can sooner or later, which can also replace night dew. The Beginning of Autumn sprayed a flash before 03:00 in the afternoon in the first 18 days, which can promote the development of new buds. Natural water (Rain Water) is the best water, but Rain Water, who flows down from the thatched hut or soot roof, is not suitable to use. Fill the water in the tank with water in winter, dig a pit larger and deeper than the water tank underground, so that there is a slight gap around the cylinder, and then put the cylinder in the pit, the cylinder surface is lower than the ground and filled with straw or sawdust, buried and covered, the tank water is heated because of the ground temperature, and the unclean ingredients contained in the water can be precipitated, which is the most suitable for orchid water, the orchid can not use raw water, but must be absorbed and placed before use. There are many kinds of fertilizers, and orchid experts have achieved results by applying all kinds of fertilizers, but it is as dangerous as using soil. As long as it is cultivated in rotten fertile soil, there is absolutely no need to use fertilizer, but people who are willing to apply fertilizer can use oil cake liquid that has been corroded for two or three years, diluted with water and applied once in spring and autumn, but coloured cold orchids are absolutely not suitable for use. The most suitable transplanting period is from early March to mid-April in spring and from mid-October to early December in autumn. It is not absolutely bad in other periods, but when transplanting from May to August and September, it is harmful to the development of new buds. It should be noted that the reproduction of cold orchids is so slow that it is not suitable to be transplanted every year. If there is no need to split roots, there can be no additional transplants in 2023. Although considerable attention has been paid to the transplant, it will not grow well in that year because of the influence on the root. The person who starts the cultivation is to repeatedly transplant the poorly growing orchids, so that they can not get good results. The cold orchid should bear in mind that it is better to produce a few and strong new buds than to produce more but few new buds. Cold orchids planted with rotten fertile soil for watering do not need to be watered every four, five days or a week because the soil contains water. When it is sunny in dog days, it can be properly watered according to the degree of dryness and wetness, but watering should be done in the morning and evening rather than at noon. The cold orchid planted with rotten fertile soil is not usually too dry, it is better to make the soil moist, but watering every day can make the cultivated soil cool, but it is not good. Therefore, it is appropriate to water four or five times in spring. Five or six times in summer, four or five times in autumn, three or four times in winter, should be fully watered each time (diseases and insect pests and control methods are brief). I live in the origin of Samohan orchid, often climb the purple tail mountain to study the natural growth status of cold orchid, and gradually have confidence in the use of natural and simple and safe cultivation methods as mentioned above.
