Can the new buds of orchids grow into strong seedlings? It doesn't have to be more fertilization. these points are not mysterious.

At the end of April this year, before the spring orchid was put on the pot, I sent a picture to the orchid friends. This is a dwarf cymbidium, the whole body is only 20 centimeters, two seedlings (refers to seed seedlings), because carefully observed, there are no signs of aging orchid seedlings (as to whether or not seedlings, just personal judgment).

All you can see before potting is three new bud spots and a little new root crystal head the size of a grain of rice. Many of the orchid friends of the good farmer wanted this spring orchid, hehe, it was the only dwarf tree, so they put it in the pot. This germination rate is still quite high, two seedlings sprouting three bud points, the germination rate is up to 150%. But can all these bud spots be nurtured into seedlings? As a matter of fact, I have no idea.

More than a month later (June 6), the three new buds have grown so big that they still look healthy, so that the seedling rate can be reached 100%. The last picture is on June 27 (that is, today), and the leaves of the new seedlings are much bigger than they were 20 days ago. There is no special care for such farmers, but a large number of orchids are managed together. Today, the good farmer will talk to Lan you about these management processes. in fact, it is very simple.

Raise orchids, good photo farmers personally feel that the most important thing is the environment, the environment, the environment. As long as the environment is suitable for its growth, the management can be more extensive. Of course, this is also the heart of urban Lanyou. This dwarf orchid is always placed in the orchid shed with a shade net on the roof and no shelf for the flowerpot to the ground. The plant material used is pine bark + hickory shell + humus soil prepared by the farmer himself. No fertilizer has been applied, but foliar fertilizer (potassium dihydrogen phosphate + urea) was sprayed only once in May.

Never watered, rainy in the first half of the year, there is no need to water at all. Carbendazim and mancozeb have been sprayed every 15 days since May 5. Now orchid friends can also see carbendazim residues on orchid leaves. Therefore, good farmers believe that the conditions of orchid cultivation are in the following order: large environment, artificial small environment, plant material, water, and fertilizer. I put fertilizer at the end because I think I would rather not apply fertilizer if it is not really needed.
