Tips for keeping the red lotus petal bright

Red stands for warm, unrestrained, positive and upward. Most ethnic groups in the world like red, especially us Chinese! For lotus petal orchid lovers, breeding a red lotus petal with excellent and stable color has always been the goal of eternal pursuit. Due to the influence of climate, soil and water and other reasons, the color of red lotus petal is extremely unstable! In 1992, I planted more than two points of wild lotus petals in my hometown, and found a small red lotus petal. I was so excited at that time that I couldn't put into words. But in the second year, it turned into a green lotus petal, and the petals were greatly elongated, and so did the third and fourth flowers, which became common grass, and finally had to be given away. Speaking of lotus petal orchid red flowers, many friends who plant lotus petal orchids often encounter this kind of situation. Yunlong Tianchi powder lotus, Jianchuan Jinhuamei, Dali red lotus and so on, which are very influential in Dali orchid world, all have the problem of color instability, which disappoints enthusiasts greatly! How to prepare a kind of nutrient soil that can keep the red lotus petal stable color through experiments, and to study and analyze the growth environment index system to keep the red lotus petal color stable, this is what botanists and orchid friends with conditions should strive to do! I don't have the condition and ability. However, according to my practical experience and the practical experience of some veterans in the Dali orchid world, I would like to introduce a little trick here to make up for the regret. If you have red lotus petals (light green lotus petals can also be tried), you can mix a small amount of red soil in the cultivation, or put a small amount of rust iron where there is no red soil. After the bud is unearthed, first use the Xipo paper cover, take off the condom about a week before the flower, and keep it in the shade where the sun can't shine. From the first day of the flower, gradually put it in the place where the sun is weak, and after the third day, you can put it in the strong light. In this way, you will find that your red lotus petals are getting redder and redder. However, to emphasize that if there is no red gene in your flowers, this method will not work. Haha, is there any suspicion of fraud? Please let the benevolent see benevolence and the wise see wisdom.
