The four common mistakes made by novices are the real reasons for the withering and rotting roots of orchids.

Orchids as ornamental flowers, whether young and old, urban or rural people are planted on one or two pots, as a hobby, used to enrich their spare time life. However, the maintenance of orchids for a long time, orchids will appear in a variety of situations, which makes the novice some unprepared. The reason is that they made these four mistakes in the process of raising orchids, which led to the withering and rotting roots of orchids.

One is the selection of flowerpots. To maintain orchids, according to the specific situation, orchids should not choose too large flowerpots, because if you use large pots, you will not be able to absorb enough water from the roots if you water less. If the soil surface is dry and the inside is still wet, if you continue to water it, it is easy for the roots to rot.

The second is the problem of reasonable fertilization. Whether it is to grow flowers and grass, fertilizer is indispensable, good fertilizer can make orchid branches and leaves grow well, flowers bloom, but some novices will not fertilize, fertilizer should be used in an appropriate amount. If you don't have a good grasp, you can apply light fertilizer.

Third, the problem of proper watering. Some novice florists are in a hurry, always thinking about making the flowers bloom, so they water them every day, but everything should be moderate, and watering is no exception, if you think there is enough water, but the orchids are dehydrated, either the roots are broken, or the air is not moderate enough. The principle of watering: if water is found to flow out from the drainage hole at the bottom of the orchid basin, it indicates that it has been watered through. When should I water it? It can be tested by inserting a toothpick into an orchid basin. Determine whether to water or not by observing the humidity on the toothpick.

The fourth is the problem of pot planting. Planting orchids too deep is a common mistake made by many beginners, thinking that buried deep can better absorb nutrients, this concept is wrong, the head of the orchid plant should be higher than the pot noodles, so that it will not be smoldering and new buds wet. At the same time, when putting on the pot, the orchid plant material should reveal a little bit of orchid root. Don't ask Langan to cover it all.
