How to use sand orchid
Sand. Such as coarse river sand, soybean-sized sand, weathered rock weathering out of rock sand, etc.
Sand material should be mixed with about 7/10 of chaff material (the best is the chaff from the bottom of the cultivation of winter mushroom and agaric strains and the chaff from the waste chaff bag, which is characterized by promoting the growth of orchid roots), which is used to plant spring orchid, cymbidium orchids or cold orchids, and the effect is very good. Other orchids can also be planted.
The rock sand weathered out of weathered rock should be sifted first to avoid affecting drainage and ventilation.
Sand can also be mixed with 2/10-3/10 of burnt soil or humus, water moss used to increase the fertilizer content and water retention of the plant.
