Why do wild orchids rarely get sick in large areas? In this way, you understand that the reason is very simple.

Domestic orchids are prone to diseases, which is also the biggest headache for many Ailan people. And once some viruses are infected, if they are not treated in time, they will spread rapidly in a short period of time, seriously wiping out all orchids. It is not that we do not take good care of orchids, but things often go against our wishes. What is the reason for this?

But the strange thing is that wild orchids are rarely infected with bacteria in a large area, even if a few trees are occasionally infected with bacteria, they often heal themselves. In fact, we can look at this problem step by step, but it is not so complicated. Good farmers often go up the mountain, come into contact with wild orchids at zero distance, and make some simple records of their growth and health.

First of all, it is the principle of natural selection. Wild orchids (including other animals and plants) only thrive in an environment that suits or likes them. We often see wild orchid seeds blown away by the wind, but not many of them can actually sprout into seedlings, this process is a kind of natural selection. When it falls in a place suitable for its own growth, it is possible to grow into a strong orchid seedling. We can't see that there are actually more seedlings.

It's a bit like we only focus on the glory of successful people in society, but we don't pay attention to those who fail to do the same work as them.

Even if the wild orchids live in the same mountain, the trees grow in each layer of the mountain are different, and the trace elements in the soil are not exactly the same. That's why we can find wild orchids of different varieties and colors in a mountain.

And different trace elements have different anti-bacterial effects, to put it simply: the bacteria that are easy to breed on the hillside may not survive on the top of the mountain, while the bacteria that may harm orchids on the top of the mountain are not a threat to orchids on the hillside.

Most of the orchids raised at home are raised in the same environment, the same plant material, the same watering mode, and the same fertilizer. Too much unity has lost the wild nature of the orchid itself. This loss of wildness greatly reduces the resistance of orchids. It is a common phenomenon that once an orchid is infected with bacteria, it can quickly spread to other pots, or even be wiped out.
