Don't underestimate the golden age of orchids in summer

Orchids, with green and evergreen leaves and fragrant fragrance, are courtyard and indoor flowers that flower friends like to plant. However, Ailan should be able to raise orchids, and raise orchids should be able to manage. If raising orchids can not be managed, then, in the end, only money will be paid to buy sadness. Summer is the golden time for orchids to take root and grow leaves. How to make the orchids in the pot thrive? Here are three summer management methods for flower friends.

1. Prevention of fertilizer damage

Orchids originally grew in deep mountains and dense forests and had no demand for fertilizer. But after transplanting into the pot, the flower friends are afraid of losing the orchid, so they often apply fertilizer, resulting in the death of the orchid. The leaf tip blackened and extended day by day until the whole plant withered. Therefore, flower friends who raise orchids, especially those who are beginners to raise orchids, should not be keen on fertilization, which can keep the foundation of orchids. If fertilizing improperly, it will cause many problems of orchids.

It is generally recommended that flower friends fertilize orchids in summer and use special liquid fertilizer for orchids. They are rich in nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium, and only need 500 times water to water the roots of orchids. The frequency of use is about 7 days.

2. Prevention of water disasters

Orchids originally grow in places where the tide is dry, and there is little demand for water. But after transplanting to the basin, especially in the balcony, room breeding, because the plant is separated from the ground, lost the moisture of the surface supply, so it needs to be watered.

However, some flower friends are afraid of drying orchids and uncontrolled watering, resulting in overweight water in the basin soil and rotten roots and dead seedlings. Its performance is that the unearthed seedlings lose color and become soft and die, the young leaves of the plant-the corrugated leaves become withered, the growing points rot, endangering the survival of the whole orchid. Therefore, watering should be based on the moist degree of basin soil varies from basin to basin. The effect of watering orchids with Rain Water in summer and autumn is the best.

2. Pest prevention

Orchids originally grew in a clean and dust-free natural environment and were not disturbed by insect pests. However, after being transplanted into the basin, the environment has changed, and it is impossible to avoid the invasion of plant pests, such as shell insects, red spiders, flower lice and so on. These pests suck nutrients on the plant leaves, resulting in white spots or whole pieces and scorched black of orchid leaves. In serious cases, the orchid plants become thinner and weaker, and the seedlings do not grow long after they are unearthed, resulting in long-term lack of nutrition supply and death.

Pest prevention methods: you can smear and spray diluted dimethoate lotion or beer, the two methods are good pest control effect. According to the growth law of orchids, orchids sprout in spring, orchids are protected in summer and autumn.

Due to the high temperature in summer and autumn, improper fertilization will lead to fermentation temperature increase, improper watering will lead to heavy dampness of stagnant water, and failure to kill pests in time will lead to the increase of pest density. Therefore, flower lovers who raise orchids should make orchids spend the summer and autumn through "three defenses" and realize their desire to blossom in spring in the coming year.
