Analysis on the reasons for the non-flowering of ball orchid

Ball orchid is very good-looking after blooming, if the ball orchid you just bought home is blooming, then the appearance of luxuriant leaves is very beautiful. But there are also many friends back to find that the ball orchid raised in the second year will not blossom, what is the reason for this? The editor will analyze it for you.

Ball orchid

Ball orchid is very afraid of people harassing its roots, because the young roots are very sensitive and will affect their absorptive capacity. If it is disturbed before or after flower bud differentiation, it is more likely to lead to no flowers. Another reason is that the planting soil is overconsolidated, causing the roots to rot; therefore, 40% of the planting soil should be mixed with loose peat soil. In terms of fertilization, it should be light and concentrated, mainly phosphorus and potassium fertilizer, followed by nitrogen fertilizer, but insect bacteria should be applied or should not be fertilized in rainy days.

First, ball orchid pruning: young plants should pick the heart early, promote branches, and set up a support in time to make it climb and grow upward. Part of the old root should be cut off when changing the basin. After the flowers fade, they should be allowed to wither naturally, and the stems of the flowers should not be cut off.

Second, the ball orchid changes the pot: the flowerpot should choose the high foot small pot, the young plant should change the pot every spring, and the adult plant can change the pot every 2-3 years. For plants with existing buds and flowers, do not move the flowerpot at will, otherwise it is easy to cause buds and flowers to fall.

Third, ball orchid fertilizer and water management: in the growing season, in addition to watering to see dry and wet, but also often need to spray water on the leaves. Summer watering should be adequate, at the same time, attention should be paid to increasing air humidity to facilitate robust growth. Fertilizer and water combined with phosphorus and potassium were applied once or twice a month in the peak growing season.

Fourth, ball orchid lighting selection: potted ball orchids should be cultivated on the outdoor south windowsill or near the indoor south window in spring and autumn, which can keep the leaves green and bright and bloom well. In summer, you need to move to the shade to prevent the strong light from shining directly, otherwise the leaf color will easily turn yellow. If you put it in the lack of light for a long time, the color of the leaves will become lighter, and the flowers will be less and less colorful.

Ball orchid is very popular because of its peculiar flower shape, so many flower friends have breeding in their homes, but troubles appear in this way.

Analysis on the reasons for the elimination of bulbous orchid

Many flower friends reflect that the ball orchid finally exposed the bud, and then disappeared, hope turned into disappointment, so what are the reasons for the ball orchid to disappear? Let's take a look at the analysis of senior flower friends.

First, the basin is too small, resulting in a lack of moisture and nutrition, the traditional concept of small pots easy to blossom is still very popular. Therefore, the basin selection of ball orchid is very important.

Second, the planting material is not suitable.

I often transplant with a bud, pluck it out to trim the root and then plant it, it is not easy to disappear the bud, why? Many people use bark, orchid stone and other full-grain plant materials, this kind of plant material is originally very dry, plants are thirsty in most cases, you a ladle of water down in the lack of water plants will naturally increase water absorption, as a result, and then soon, the water quickly ran out, so the bud fell, so bark, blue stone and other plant materials watering fluctuations, this kind of water impact is an important reason for bud elimination.

Therefore, good plant materials should have the following characteristics:

1. When just watering, the water holding capacity is appropriate, and it is not suitable to hold too much water.

two。 After watering, the moisture of the plant evaporates quickly, which rapidly reduces the water holding capacity and reduces the incidence of rotting roots.

3. After that, the evaporation rate decreases, the moisture can be maintained for a long time, and there should be a good evaporation curve.

4. The size of the basin should be appropriate, the impact of too small basin water is also large, the smaller the environment, the easier to change.
