Clear the intestines of the blackened orchid so that it can't finish eating and walking around.

To "clear the intestines" for orchids with blackened roots, so that they can't finish eating.

If you want to preserve orchids, you have to give me a word of joy. This is the biggest headache I have encountered in raising orchids for so many years. I wonder if you who like orchids have ever encountered such a similar situation?

The two pots of spring orchids I bought last January will not grow or die after more than a year. And it didn't sprout. Even if some sprouts do not grow, or do not grow up at all. Even one of my friends said it was a pot of orchids.

Is it really nothing? Later, after the guidance of veterans, combined with my many years' experience in orchid cultivation, I came to the conclusion that when orchids were cultivated in your hands, due to improper management, fertilizer damage, drug damage or overdrying of plant materials, suddenly the root tip was damaged caused by excessive concentration of water and fertilizer, which hindered the normal absorption and conduction of orchids.

Then, I turned the basin and found that the roots were OK, but all the root tips had blackened. There is no absorbent root at all. Even close to the new root tip of a few centimeters of Reed head, the root tip is black. But the whole root is stiff, inelastic, and completely loses the function of absorbing and preaching nutrients.

In such a situation, the old driver taught me to use the immersion method, and the problem was easily solved. The method is to first clean the orchid lightly and put it in a basin or bucket with running water. If there is a goldfish aeration pump to increase oxygen, put the whole orchid inside and soak it for 24 hours, then pick it up and dry it so that no clear water can be seen.

Then it is planted with fresh plant material, and then poured with root water. Sure enough, this method is very effective, through this method to deal with the two pots of spring orchids this year issued 5 buds, but also strong seedlings. Therefore, in such a situation, in time for the orchid "clear intestines", so that it can not finish eating around, take away the nutrition, the orchid will be more robust.
