Sword orchid

The conventional cultivation of sword orchid refers to the cultivation under natural conditions, and the bulbs with a diameter of more than 2.5 cm are generally selected. There are two planting methods: ridge planting and border planting, with a depth of 5cm and 10cm. When the second leaf is produced, it is the time of flower bud differentiation, and it is particularly sensitive to environmental factors. In case of low temperature and weak light, the number of "blind flowers" increases. Generally, when preparing the soil, nitrogen 6kg, phosphorus 6kg, potassium 7kg are applied per mu. Topdressing is needed for 3 times in the whole growing season, that is, when the inflorescence is extracted from the leaves and 15 days after flowering, topdressing is needed.

In order to promote the cultivation of sword orchid, it is necessary to break the dormancy of seed ball first. After planting balls, dormancy can be broken under natural conditions from late autumn to early winter under the influence of low temperature. To promote cultivation, dormancy must be broken artificially, that is, after harvest, the bulbs were first treated with 35 ℃ high temperature for 15-20 days, then treated with 2-3 ℃ low temperature for 20 days, and then planted, which could germinate and grow normally. If it is required to supply flowers from January to February, it will be planted from October to November; if it is planted in December, it will blossom from March to May. That is, it takes 100 to 120 days from planting to flowering. The row spacing of 15 cm × 15 cm or 25 cm × 7 cm was 15 cm × 15 cm or 25 cm × 7 cm, with 40 bulbs per square meter. After planting, the temperature should be kept at 20: 25 ℃ in daytime and 15 ℃ at night.
