Orchid month order
According to the climate of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, the monthly maintenance of orchids need to pay attention to the problems, a total of reference.
January: the average temperature for this month is above 4 ℃ Celsius, and at its lowest, it drops to about-10 ℃. At this time, as the strong cold current in the north continues to go south, there are the most frost and snow, so the cold prevention of orchids is the most important. In the case of not low temperature, the flowerpot can be placed under the south eaves with strong sunshine, and it is best to change the direction of the pot every 2 or 3 days to make the sun shine evenly. However, in case of low temperature freezing, you must move indoors, close the windows, and start a fire if necessary (but pay attention to soot prevention). If you find that the basin mud is dry, you should pour a little water, only moist, not too much.
February: the average temperature of this month is 1-2 ℃ higher than that of the previous month, there is still a cold spell, the weather is far very cold, and the number of freezing days is about 8-10 days. The maintenance of orchids is still based on anti-freezing, and need to maintain a certain degree of moisture, so as to prevent the basin mud from drying and cracking.
March: the average temperature of this month is about 7-8 ℃ Celsius, 1-2 ℃ higher than last month. The weather is slightly warmer, and orchids gradually begin to sprout and sprout, so flowerpots can sometimes be placed in the open field for ventilation. However, the weather is changeable, often rainy, frost and snow is far from broken, we still need to continue to pay attention to cold prevention, especially on cold nights, we still need to check. The ancients also described "cherishing the time of flowers and the sorrow of cold nights", which shows that this month is indeed the most difficult month for the conservation of orchids. In addition, within this month, we should also do a good job in the breeding pot of next month, as well as the accurate work of cultivating soil.
April: the average temperature of this month is more than 6 ℃ higher than that of the previous month, the weather is warm, the frost and snow has stopped, and the new buds of orchids are so long that they can be ventilated and transparent. However, it is worth noting that this month is the alternating period of warm air in the Xinhua News Agency, and there are a lot of Rain Water, so it is necessary to prevent the basin from getting too wet or stagnant water, otherwise it will easily rot the roots; in case of heavy rain, use a string to tie up the leaves to avoid lodging. Sometimes even if it rains for 3-5 days, you should also pay attention to avoid it. On the other hand, if it is sunny for a long time, no matter there are flowers or no flowers, you can water them, but not too much.
This month is the most suitable season for orchids to cover pots, turn pots and split roots, and at the same time need to build scaffolding to prepare shade, so it is the busiest month for orchids.
May: the average temperature of this month is about 6 ℃ higher than that of the previous month. The weather is relatively hot, with temperatures often above 20 ℃ Celsius and the lowest above 10 ℃ Celsius. At this time, you can properly use sparse or white cloth to cover the sun, at the same time, the temperature is getting higher and higher, the basin mud is easy to dry and can be watered once in the morning and evening. But another feature of this month is that warm and cold air often agitates, forming a lasting "Meiyu". During this period, there is less sunshine, high humidity and more showers, which is disadvantageous to the growth of orchids. At this time, we should not only move the flowerpot to the back of the sun, do not make the pot stagnant water, and do not cover the canopy to cover the rain.
Since the rainfall is getting more and more from this month, you can store more Rain Water for watering and make preparations for the prevention and control of diseases and insect pests.
June: the average temperature this month is generally around 25 ℃ Celsius, an average increase of 4-5 ℃ over the previous month. This month is still the rainy season, shading management is basically the same as last month, but there are more heavy rain or torrential rain, so we should pay special attention to it. After the weather clears up, the climate is often very dry, so we should pay attention to watering. Can start to fertilize, but not too high concentration of fertilizer and water. Watering is best carried out at dusk, and let Chunlan bask in 2 or 3 hours of sunshine the next morning (Chardonnay can bask in it for longer), which will promote the growth of new seedlings.
July: this month is the month with the highest average temperature, with a monthly average temperature of about 28.3 ℃ over the years, accounting for about 2 ℃ on sunny days, so shading and ventilation is the most important work. Whenever the weather is hot and the sun is hot, it can be covered at any time, but as soon as the scorching sun is over, it should be rolled up or removed to facilitate ventilation, otherwise it is most likely to bring various diseases. Flowerpots can also be moved indoors, when orchids, such as lack of water, are easy to wither and yellow, so they should be watered frequently. Watering should also be carried out in the morning and evening, and more liquid fertilizer of grass juice should be applied to promote its exuberant growth and strengthen its resistance.
There has been a typhoon this month, so we need to pay close attention to the weather forecast and do a good job of Taiwan prevention. If you find diseases and insect pests, spray Bordeaux liquid 1-2 times.
August: the average temperature of this month is about the same as that of the previous month, and even if it is lower, it is very limited. It still needs to be covered by dense cloths in very hot weather. Can also move the flowerpot into the room, at the same time frequently watering, appropriate application of some organic liquid fertilizer. If the basin soil is solid, a small piece of bamboo should be used to loosen the soil slightly on the basin surface to make the new root grow strong.
During this meal, we should continue to do a good job in pest control and typhoon prevention.
September: the average temperature in March is similar to that in June, also about 25 ℃ Celsius, 2-3 ℃ lower than the previous month. The summer heat is clear, there is a slight sense of autumn, the roots and leaves of orchids are already very luxuriant, and there can be more sunshine every day, so the shading work can be basically finished. However, the Reed can not be removed, because during this period, there are occasional high temperature weather, it still needs a short time to cover the sparse fish. At the same time, whenever long sunny dry, but also need more watering, so as to avoid basin mud cracking, causing death. Fertilizer can still use liquid fertilizer of organic matter.
As the temperature is normal this month, orchids can be propagated by root-splitting method.
October: the average monthly temperature is about 18 ℃, about 6 ℃ lower than the previous month. Autumn is getting deeper and deeper, and the new roots and buds of orchids are fully developed. Yilan people think that this month is a month to see the success or failure of cultivating orchids. Due to the low temperature, there may be slight frost, which must be paid attention to. But in this period, autumn buds are still issued, and the mud noodles in the general basin can not be too dry, so you can bear more rain and dew, and you can also bask in more sunshine.
November: the monthly average temperature is about 12 ℃, which has not yet entered the winter range (meteorologically, winter is defined when the average temperature is below 10 ℃). But this month there has been a strong cold current attack, the emergence of low-temperature frost phenomenon, so we should pay attention to anti-freezing, generally can be placed under the eaves of the orchid basin, and then move into the room when the cold current comes. The temperature sometimes rises this month, so we should also pay attention to ventilation.
December: winter officially enters this month, with a monthly average temperature of 6.4 ℃. The cold spell and frost are the most, and there is snow, so cold prevention is the central task of this month. Windows should be closed when the weather is cold, and sometimes the windows should be opened for ventilation when the weather is sunny.
