Potted orchids need to bloom skillfully if they are raised well.

Most orchids grow in clusters, and the sunshine time is short. If potted orchids want to grow well, blossom beautifully and beautifully, they must learn to be "cute". The so-called "skillful" is to learn to use skills to promote the growth and blossom of orchids according to the growth of orchids.

1. Watering should be "skillful"

As the saying goes, the orchid wet chrysanthemum shows that the water demand of orchids is far lower than that of chrysanthemums. Orchid leaves are small and fleshy roots, although do not need too much moisture, but like the air moist. The new buds of orchids begin to grow in early spring every year. In summer drought, watering can increase the humidity of leaves and air, but there can be no stagnant water in the basin.

Watering "ingenious" method: summer should be in the early morning, evening, along the edge of the bowl. After autumn, the dew is heavier on a sunny night, and the soil in the basin should be more dry and less watered. At this time, the degree of shading should be reduced and the shading time should be reduced. After the middle of October, all shades should be opened and full illumination should be implemented.

If it is sunny for a long time in autumn, the basin can be watered more when it is very dry. After the orchid falls, or the growth is nearly stopped, it can be watered less. After entering the house in winter, the basin soil can maintain a certain humidity.

2. Fertilization should be "skillful".

Generally speaking, orchids should not apply more fertilizer. If its leaves are yellow and thin, it means lack of fertilizer, and the leaf color is black and green. During the peak growth period of orchids from June to July, when the leaf buds are 1 cm long, the thin fertilizer specially used for orchids can be applied several times. In the hot summer season, there is usually no fertilization. Autumn cool can be applied twice in September, in the evening, and watered once the next morning. Spring orchid and Jian orchid can be applied 4-5 times a year and once each from June to September.

In addition to using the organic nutrient solution for orchids, florists can also use the following two fertilizers:

The main results are as follows: (1) the bean cake or rapeseed cake was crushed and added soil, mixed in the proportion of 1:2, and used after being air-dried for 2 ~ 3 months.

(2) the chicken manure was dried and fermented for 3 months and mixed with twice as fine soil.

(3) soak 2 portions of bean cake and 3 portions of clear water for 1 year, then dilute it with its clarifying solution (5%). In addition, after some bird manure is mixed with appropriate chemical fertilizer and fully fermented, dilution is also a good fertilizer for orchids.

3. Trim "be ingenious"

Orchids can be thinned when they are in buds, thinning out the thin ones, leaving 3 or 4 strong ones. After flowering can also be appropriate thinning, the poor growth of orchids. Leave 1 or 2 buds for those with better growth, or let them bloom for 3 or 5 days and then be removed. One pot of orchids can leave 1 or 2 flower stems. When the apical flower blooms for 1 week, cut off part of the flower stem and cut it 3 cm away from the bowl. After the flower stem has withered completely, all the stump stems will be cut off.

4. To be "clever" at the beginning of winter

When the temperature began to drop before Frosts Descent, Qiu Lan had to enter the house; Donglan entered the house earlier than Qiu Lan, because it was made in the south. The cold tolerance of Chunlan and Xialan is stronger than that of Donglan and Qiulan. When overwintering, as long as the temperature is not less than 0 ℃, they do not need to enter the house, but if there is freezing, they should be properly protected against cold. Indoors, Qiulan should be placed facing the south and the sun.
