two。 Light

We usually put Phnom Penh orchids indoors in the process of family care, but don't forget that this kind of plant also needs sunlight. Phnom Penh hanging orchid placed in a serious lack of light, perennial lack of light, irrigated water can not be absorbed or evaporated in time, it will lead to rotting roots.

1. Slightly rotten root

If the Phnom Penh orchid starts to rot, you'll find it. This situation can be alleviated if you take good care of it. Reduce the number of watering and the amount of each watering. Slowly you will find that the rotten roots are healed by themselves.

two。 Partial rotten root

When Phnom Penh has some signs of rotting roots, give it the sun properly, but do not sun it for a long time, let alone when the sun is very strong. In addition, the time spent in the sun should be strictly controlled, not more than two hours a day. After this treatment, the situation of some rotten roots of hanging orchids will be improved. But the rotting root situation may continue, at this time we should consider the use of nutrient solution. At the same time, do not use too much nutrient solution to make the orchid get better quickly. It must be patient to restore the rotten root. Don't act too hastily. When spraying nutrient solution, do not spray it directly into the soil because it is closer to the root, but spray it on the leaves as much as possible. So it can be absorbed more quickly.

If the rotten root and the unrotten part of Phnom Penh happen not to be together, they can be separated directly and ensure the healthy growth of the plant.

3. Serious rotting root

If the rotten root of Phnom Penh is very serious, the rotten root should be removed directly. But the knife should be disinfected before cutting, and the cut root can be thrown away directly. Apply a little rooting agent to the rest of the root, and it will soon return to the way it used to be!

4. Completely rotten

It is impossible for Phnom Penh hanging orchids to survive after completely rotten roots. However, we can make use of the strong reproductive ability and strong vitality of Cymbidium, and directly change a section of the better-growing aboveground part to a new soil for cultivation, thus becoming a brand-new Phnom Penh.
