Many flower friends have been raising crab claw orchids for several years, but they haven't seen their own crab claw orchids bloom, so why? Next, Shuai Shuai will tell you what to do if the crab claw orchid does not blossom.

The reasons for the non-flowering of crab claw orchid and its solution

1. Lighting

People who have raised crab claw orchids all know that crab claw orchids have very low light requirements, and it does not belong to the all-day type of plant. If it has too much light every day, it will affect its flowering, making it difficult to form buds, so it cannot blossom. Not only does the outside sun bring light, but even indoor lights illuminate crab claw orchids will have the same impact as daylight. Some breeders like to put the crab claw orchid close to the light at night, so the differentiation of the crab claw orchid will be affected because the light time is too long, so that the crab claw orchid can not bloom. We should put it in a dark environment with light during the day and dark at night, so it can blossom.

2. Temperature

The best temperature for crab claw orchid growth is between 18 and 25 degrees, the flowering temperature is between 10 and 15 degrees, and it should not exceed 25 degrees, and it is best to maintain 15 degrees. In winter, the temperature of crab claw orchid growth should be kept above 10 degrees before it can blossom normally, otherwise it will frostbite its flower buds, and it is easy to cause dumb buds of flower buds, so when the temperature is too low, crab claw orchids should be moved to the greenhouse, and then move out of the greenhouse after flowering. After moving out of the greenhouse, we should always observe the temperature. Once the temperature is not up to the standard, we should immediately adjust the temperature to prevent frostbite if it comes out.

3. Watering

Crab claw orchid growing environment of the soil should be semi-overcast, the soil is moist, in the rainy summer season to put the crab claw orchid back indoors, to ensure that its flower buds will not be hurt by rain, usually less watering, because crab claw orchid will not die because of lack of water, its cold resistance is still there, but stagnant water will lead to its death, so watering should be careful and delicate. Be sure to spray irregularly during the flower bud and keep the environment slightly wet.

4. Fertilization

When you choose to fertilize it, you can choose phosphorus and potassium fertilizer and nitrogen-rich fertilizers, such as horseshoe slices and ammonium sulfate, and control a certain amount. Many people may not control its amount when fertilizing, which leads to excessive fertilization and inhibit its development, thus can not blossom, so nitrogen fertilizer should be applied a little less.

The above is the reason why the crab claw orchid does not bloom and the solution. Do you know how to solve it here? The fact that the crab claw orchid does not bloom in most cases has a lot to do with the light, because it is different from other plants, it is not a full-day plant, so we should reduce the light time as much as possible but make sure that it receives enough light.
