Culture methods and matters needing attention of hydroponic tiger skin orchid

Utensils

We have to choose utensils according to size, we can choose homemade or buy, it is the best to make it elegant and beautiful, and it would be even better if we can make it complement the indoor environment.

Wash the root

1. We can water it two or three days in advance to soften the soil, so that it will be easier to take out.

2. Dig it out, shake it gently, and then gently pat it until all the soil above has lost all its roots.

Then we put it in clean water for about 15 to 20 minutes, wash it gently with our hands, and then change it several times until there is no soil at the bottom.

4. Some of the roots are old roots, which are more complex, and a lot of soil is hidden in its roots, so we have to dig out its soil with bamboo sticks and sticks. There is no soil left, this is the key point of hydroponics, so we can't let it go.

Root pruning

If it has grown for a long time, then its roots will be more developed, generally speaking, we should properly trim its old roots and sick roots, as for yellow leaves and old leaves also need to be cut off.

After we have finished pruning, we have to wash it again with clean water, so that the residual root hair will be cleaned and the container will not be contaminated.

water

The amount of water also needs to be paid attention to. Generally speaking, it is OK for us to add water directly to it, but not too much water, as long as 1/3 of the root is exposed.

Temperature

Its favorite temperature is in the range of 5 degrees and 30 degrees, so we have to keep it in this environment so that it will be stronger.

Light

We can't let it shine directly into the sun, just give it some scattered light.

Change water

It changes every five to ten days in spring and autumn, five to fifteen days in summer and ten to fifteen days in winter. When changing water, you can add nutrient solution to it.

Cleaning

We have to clean the container and root every time we change the water.
