Plant material formula of orchid

Carry forward the national orchid culture and spread the knowledge of orchids

First, the basic characteristics that plant materials should have:

1. Sour, clean.

2. Good air permeability, hydrophobicity, relatively rough.

3. It has the effect of keeping moisture.

4. There are certain nutritional chemical elements.

In general, plants that meet the above conditions need to be configured, if a single plant, it is often incompetent.

Second, the broad proportion of plant materials:

1. The first kind: soil plant materials account for about 50% of the total plant materials, plant materials account for about 20% of the total plant materials, and inorganic plants account for about 30% of the total plant materials. This kind of plant material belongs to broad-spectrum plant material formula, which can be used for 2 years or more without changing plant material, which is suitable for most orchids.

2. The second kind: inorganic plant material accounts for about 80% of the total plant material, and organic plant material accounts for about 20%. This kind of plant is suitable for Ye Yilan, and it also belongs to the broad-spectrum plant formula. But the soil must be changed every year.

3 third: plant material accounts for about 80% of the total plant material, soil plant material accounts for about 10% of the total plant material, and inorganic plant material accounts for about 10% of the total plant material. This tired plant formula is generally suitable for flood management and does not worry about whether watering is the right time. The disadvantage is that it is not suitable for Chunjian and Huilan. The soil must also be changed every year.

3. Soil plant materials:

1. Humus soil: traditional plant materials, but easy to carry insects, bacteria, the structure is too fine. It has the advantages of being rich in humus, loose and economical.

2. Pond mud: good cohesion and high content of nutrients. But there are often bacteria, orchids are also too fertile, small buds are easy to stiff.

3. Peat soil: because it is corrupted by trees and grasses, it contains a lot of phosphorus and potassium fertilizer. After production, a small amount is added to the plant material, which can increase the disease resistance of the orchid.

4. Gas sand: it is rich in elements and has a good effect on leaf grass.

5. Fairy soil: rich in nutrition, good in agglomeration, good in air permeability and hydrophobic effect. It is one of the very good plant materials now.

6. Burning soil: it is made of natural clay and fired at high temperature. its particles are hollow and the surface is round with many fine pores. Therefore, it has good water absorption and water retention.

7. Peat: also known as grass coal, or Vietnamese soil. It is the product of biological decomposition of plants in swamps. But too many impurities have to be washed many times.

IV. Inorganic plant materials:

1. Plastic particles: breathable, hydrophobic, no bacteria, economical and affordable. I usually use it as a base material. Of course, it can also be added to the plant formula with a proportion of about 5%, but not much, because there is no nutrition.

2. Sand and stone particles: for example, perlite, river sand, wind fossils, volcanic stones, etc., in addition to economy, they also contain certain elements needed by flowers, with good air permeability and hydrophobic properties.

3, artificial construction particles: such as broken brick particles, ceramic particles, kiln soil particles, cinder particles, etc., if processed to remove fire, it can be said to be a very economical plant material and contains a lot of elements.

4. Others: such as planting gold stone, etc., but not much, otherwise when the soil is almost dry, it will absorb the water of Langen in turn.

5. Plant materials:

1. It can be said that most plant wastes are fine. For example, charcoal, melon seed shell, peanut shell, Chinese medicine dregs, snake wood, water moss, pine leaves, plant fine roots, bagasse, various hard fruit shells, sawdust, branch bark, coconut bran, rice bran, oak leaves and green bar leaves, and so on.

2. But it should be processed, washed, disinfected, fried and dried. Otherwise, it will hurt the root because of the role of water and fertilizer under the temperature, change, rot and growl, and also like to cause diseases.

6. Recommended formula:

1. Spring sword formula: 40% inorganic plant material + 40% soil plant material + 20% plant material

2. Chunlan and Jianlan formula 1: 30% pebble + 40% pine chestnut king plant + 5% red brick particles + 15% leaves + 5% snake wood + 5% charcoal

3. Chunlan and Jianlan formula 2: pebble 20% + Castanea mollissima plant 40% + leaves 20% + volcanic stone, burning hollow soil 15% + snake wood 5%

4. Chunlan and Jianlan formula 3: pebble 30% + Chinese chestnut king plant 40% + snake wood 10% + leaf 15% + charcoal 5%

5. Broad-spectrum formula 1: 10% of particles in burning soil, 25% of small particles in burning soil, 10% of particles in immortal soil, 25% of small particles in immortal soil, 20% of oak leaves, 10% of peat plus Castanea mollissima plant material. Put a layer of peat, active soil and plant Xiang near the pseudo-bulb, and then put a layer of small particles of burning soil. (suitable for most orchids such as Chunlan)

Conclusion: the idea of planting material is probably these, everyone should make some adjustments according to their own situation and climate. It is impossible to copy mechanically. But what beginners should pay attention to is that it takes at most one year to choose one or two recipes, and then change them less. Don't listen to A say that his recipe is good today, so learn it. Tomorrow, the root of B nourishes you, so you learn.

Ordinary people say that the key to root cultivation is plant material, but I think that root cultivation = orchid cultivation, the key lies in fertilizer, water and environment. Don't you see, some of the plants used by Lanyou are "very simple or even low-grade", and the orchids that can be raised are still very good. As a result, maintenance accounts for 70% and planting materials account for 30%.

Orchids, you are a good teacher on the way to raise orchids.
