Design of cultivation site

Spring orchid, summer orchid are shade-tolerant plants, but they are also yang-loving flowers, so they should be adapted to local conditions.

1. In the new village apartment orchid, can use glass box or this frame wall-mounted, fixed in the corridor wall. The box or frame is about 60 cm high and 35cm wide. The width of the spacious room can also be increased by multiples in order to put two rows of flowerpots, and the height can be increased by 5-10cm. The length depends on the space. Glass material appears transparent high, elegant and luxurious; wood frame type can match with wood wall. Such as the display of high-grade orchids, in the housing decoration, can be arranged at the same time in the design. Generally, six or seven pots or even more than twenty pots of orchid grass can be planted. Economical type, open type, the top layer can be planted with tall grass cymbidium; if the design of open box frame, should consider the convenience of closed in winter.

2. The roof terrace is the best place to raise orchids. Can be designed according to the width of the basin on both sides of the shelf, leaving the middle aisle; or one side of the shelf, leaving the aisle. The flowerpot rack adopts two-level step and ladder type, each level is 70cm wide, and two rows of 7-inch pots can be placed. 3mm flat steel shall be laid on the frame surface. The first stage is 50cm away from the table, and the second stage is 70cm high, which is easy to operate. Basins should be set up below the pool or brick, to maintain moisture, which is beneficial to increase humidity. The advantage of ladder type frame is the position that can change dry basin, wet basin at any time. It is more convenient to plant on a plane without steps, simple to make, flat, and larger in area. Ensure that the environmental humidity effect is also good.

Build high arched aluminum alloy scaffolding along the length. The simple one is to use agricultural film as coating material. Pay attention to some can use colorless transparent plastic glass fiber reinforced plastic, new Japanese imports wave tile or glass window frame, sealed in winter, open all around in summer. The vault shall be at least 2.5 meters high and the shed wall shall be more than 2 meters high, and safety metal net shall be set on it. The top layer can withstand heavy stones to prevent debris from falling and damaging orchids. Conditional, with stainless steel arch shed, cover transparent plastic tile, built-in pull net type sunshade net is the most ideal.

Inside the blue shed, iron wire can be pulled horizontally at the arch, and black sunshade nets can be arranged on the standard sunshade cloth frame of the rolling type, which can be rolled up to one end when not in use.

In the shed, a hose intermittent nozzle sprayer is arranged on the basin frame to supplement humidity, and it is best to arrange a commercially available humidifier to humidify.

Winter with simple film cover seal, glass shed should be sealed with adhesive tape. In addition, it is best to lay electric heating lines, generally 1000 watts is more appropriate.

3. The orchid shed on the villa floor, we assume that 4m X 6m as the standard, the basin frame is 3m long and 7 cm wide. The stepped type takes two levels as the standard, each with a height of 50cm and 70cm, or two rows of platform type with a height of 50cm, and the lower floor is paved. The roof of the shed is made of arched impact glass covered with safety net, and the vertical wall is made of stainless steel glass windows. Internal shading, the use of automatic temperature control, humidity control equipment, can be very satisfactory.

Orchid breeders who belong to simple production type or flower cultivation can also refer to the method of platform flower cultivation to design cultivation places.
