The cultivation of orchids is most afraid of the skillful treatment of five kinds of airtight things.

Since joining the army of raising orchids, I often see flower friends in the community talking about all kinds of things about orchids. I feel that I can't finish talking about orchids. Today we talk about the exuberant growth of orchids in our house, and tomorrow we talk about how your orchids are in pots. The day after tomorrow, it is another new topic, very lively.

Recently, due to repeated torrential rains, the air is hot and humid, so flower friends have a heated discussion about how orchids are hydrophobic and breathable. In fact, it is not difficult to solve this problem, put five things in the orchid pot bottom can skillfully "manage".

1. Sand particles, inconspicuous breathable artifacts

Sand and stone particles are used to put the bottom of the basin, which is commonplace. I believe many flower friends know this method. However, the editor still wants to remind us that we should be careful in choosing sand and stone. Particles should not be too thick or too fine. In terms of species, they can be wind fossils, volcanic rocks, perlite, river sand, and so on. It is very economical to use sand and gravel, and the key is that it is better to breathable and hydrophobic.

2. Plastic particles are economical and hydrophobic.

Plastic particles are also a very good base material, air permeability, good hydrophobic, no bacteria, the key is economical and affordable. However, plastic particles can not be used too much, because it can not give any nutrition to orchids. At this time, it is necessary to fertilize orchids. After diluting 1000 times with water, the orchids will certainly grow healthy and beautiful after being diluted with water.

3. Broken tiles, forgotten breathable objects

Orchid pot bottom also put a little broken tiles, oh, increase the water permeability and air permeability of orchids. However, this method is a bit limited, because tiles are not available everywhere, and there may be more tiles on the outskirts of the city or in the countryside. Flower friends who have the conditions to find tiles can try this method. After the tile is taken back, it will be broken a little bit, and then it can be put on the bottom of the basin after antivirus.

4. Loofah collaterals, breathable and fattening

Flower friends living in rural areas may be more fond of loofah, which is widely used in daily life. Washing dishes is easy to use, cleaning the table is clean, washing your face can exfoliate.

In fact, loofah can also pad the bottom of the basin, cut the sun-dried loofah into small pieces, and when changing the basin, you can put the loofah on the bottom of the basin, and the drainage effect is very good. And loofah will be turned into fertilizer after decay in the soil, killing two birds with one stone.

5. Pine needle, breathable and nourishing at the same time

Maybe we all know that pine needle soil is very fertile and is a natural nutrient soil. But in fact, pine needles can also be directly put on the bottom of the basin, oh, the effect of air permeability is incomparable to some particles.

Choose the pine needle from the lower layer of the surface layer of the ground from the mountain, take it back, sterilize it at high temperature, and dry it, you can pad the bottom of the pot. After padding the pine needle, the drainage of the orchid flowerpot will become better, and it can absorb the nutrition of the pine needle for a long time, which is undoubtedly a happy event for the orchid.

The above five solutions to the problem of hydrophobic and breathable orchids, I do not know which one you agree with, if there is any better way, you can leave a message to let me know.
