The method of using fertilizer in orchid

Fertilizer usage: the herbal national orchid is a semigaseous endoplasmic root with a tooth-colored epidermis, and its inner root is slightly like a hard iron wire characteristic cell. The function is to store water and nutrients, dry-resistant and persistent semi-air root. If we can achieve the ideal fertilizer supply, we can make the beloved orchid more appreciative. Besides nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium, trace elements such as calcium, sulfur, iron, copper, zinc, boron, magnesium and manganese are needed for orchids. These elements have a good effect on the development and growth of orchids, but excessive amounts will lead to adverse effects.

In addition, we need to understand that there are many kinds of fertilizers on the market, which are usually diluted by a thousand times in the instructions. As a matter of fact, fertilizer producers have no experience in cultivating national orchids at all. Most of them are quantified according to the demand tests of general flowers and fruit trees, and they are not designed specifically for orchids. Therefore, when using it, we should pay special attention to the fact that the amount of fertilizer required by Guolan is very small. Teacher Chen has repeatedly warned that if improper fertilization leads to fertilizer choices, the consequences will often be irreparable. Therefore, the concentration should be diluted by one or two times as stated in the manual.

If the national orchid, which is normally developed in summer, was originally recorded as 1000 times, it should be used with a diluent of 3000 times.

Young seedlings, old plants and weak plants should be diluted 5000 times (or not).

The orchid plant that normally develops in autumn and spring should be used as two thousand times as much as one thousand times.

Fertilizer application can not follow, should be combined with the growth situation and seasonal factors, give different amounts and different properties of fertilizer, in order to achieve effective help. As there are many names of fertilizers, I will omit them here and will not repeat them here. As for the principle of application, fertilization and replacement should be carried out depending on the state of development and health.

A healthy orchid plant has a strong ability to absorb and digest. Small seedlings of undeveloped or old plants should use less fertilizer and can use commercial Holmont solution to help their development.

In general, the so-called fertilizer, the trace element is alkaline, it is more appropriate to use in the development, otherwise it is easy to cause root injury, or even root rot. The names of this kind of fertilizer are as follows: chemical fertilizer and organic fertilizer.

Generally, there are a lot of orchid nutrients on the market, and most of the trace elements are acidic, which should be used before sprouting period and must not be excessive.
