Why are the orchids on the mountain so strong and difficult to raise when they are transplanted home? Let me tell you something.

Orchid friends often complain to me that this orchid is too difficult to grow, either the leaves are yellow and thin, or the roots are burned by fertilizer, and pay attention to more water and less water.

Of course, the wild downhill orchids we are talking about here, those high-grade greenhouse orchids are not discussed. Because the greenhouse orchid has another set of cultivation methods, just like a child who grew up eating foreign fast food, it is obviously too inhumane to ask him to climb a mountain.

Let's first take a look at the environment of wild orchids in the mountains. Most of them grow on slopes. The advantage of slopes is refreshing water. No matter how much rain falls, it won't accumulate water. There are a lot of fallen leaves, year after year, the lowest layer combines with the soil to form humus soil with high fertilizer efficiency, and most of the roots of wild orchids grow in this layer of soil. Look at the trees next to them, they all have fallen leaves after autumn, and these trees can prop up a cool sky in summer, we can see that orchids like shade in summer and sun in winter. Also, we rarely find orchids in the bushes, and there must be some ventilation around where there are orchids, just like the one in the picture.

Wild

Wild orchids grow in these places because they all follow the natural law of elimination, and even an occasional orchid cannot reproduce if it does not adapt. After reading the detailed explanation of wild orchids above, we can roughly come to a conclusion. In fact, we have said this conclusion (or orchid preference) before, but some orchids do not see wild orchids, so they may not understand it if they read the article.

First of all, there is no stagnant water (wild is a slope), the plant material should contain organic fertilizer (deciduous humus soil), overcast and winter sun in summer (reference to deciduous forest), ventilation (look around wild orchids). Master these points, I believe you will also be able to raise orchids, especially wild orchids.

In order to thank all of you for your support to this official account, there is nothing to repay the farmer. I specially took the charcoal fire dried white tribute chrysanthemum planted at home last year as a gift and held a fan raffle draw on the same day in 2018. The number of lottery draw is tentatively set at 80. Each winning fan will receive a chrysanthemum gift from a good photographer free of charge. Welcome to forward and let more friends draw the lottery.
