Raise orchids to use these three pots to explode the balcony into a garden.

Many people like to raise orchids and hope to make their orchids graceful and blossoming through their own efforts. But the reality is often not so good, because there is a difference between "like to raise" and "can raise well", and the most important thing is the grasp of some details. In the past, I was full of warm-blooded orchids. As a result, it was described as a "chic-looking leek" by a florist friend. Later, after careful study, it was found that there were three areas that could be improved. So today I will sum up these three points. If your orchids are not very beautiful, then it may also be one of these reasons.

Don't ignore the planting environment.

In the face of their ultra-low-looking orchid potted plants, such a question always pops up in the minds of many friends: "obviously I planted it in accordance with the strategy, but there's nothing wrong with fat and water." If this is the case, then the problem may come from the environment mentioned by the potted plants. you should know that the plant growth environment includes various indicators such as sunlight, temperature, humidity and so on. If one or more of these are not suitable for the growth of orchids, it is even more difficult to change their lives through acquired efforts, according to their habits.

The most suitable environment for orchid growth should be that the temperature is about 25 degrees Celsius, the air humidity is about 30%, and the light is preferably scattered light, which is very important, because people tend to walk into two misunderstandings when growing orchids, one is to be afraid of the sun, and the other is to sunbathe and bake the orchids in the sun every day. The best way is that the sun shines for 6 hours a day, and the evening period is the best. if the conditions do not permit, you can put it on the balcony but pay attention to building a sunshade.

Be careful of watering problems

This is a clich é, but it is also the one that is most easily overlooked. In fact, in addition to the principle that we should avoid waterlogging in the basin, there are many doorways. For example, the best watering time should be in the evening. On the one hand, the temperature will be lower than that during the day, and the sun is not so strong. Watering at this time can reduce evaporation and avoid burning leaves because of the hot sun. In addition, the whole night is also conducive to the absorption of water by the roots. It works better this way.

At the same time, we all know that watering should follow the principle of seeing dry and wet, but how to judge the dry and wet of basin soil? Many people will insert toothpicks or chopsticks into the soil to observe. In fact, this method is not necessarily accurate. If it is necessary to do so, then go deeper in order to understand the situation in the deep soil.

Of course, you can also judge whether there is a lack of water by observing the state of the leaves of the plant. in the absence of strong light and excessive fertilization, if the leaves are still wilting and yellowing and there are signs of whitening on the surface of the basin soil, then it means that the roots are short of water. just water once.

Don't be careless in fertilizing

The replenishment of fertilizers is the key to whether the flowers bloom well or not. we have reached a consensus on the use of different fertilizers in different growth periods. for example, the use of nitrogen fertilizer should be increased during the leaf growth period in spring, and when it comes to the flowering period of orchids, phosphorus and potassium should be replenished in time, and the amount of fertilizer required in different seasons is also different, which I believe you should be very clear about.

Finally, we recommend that you use self-made organic fertilizer or directly buy brand orchid special nutrient solution, do not buy inferior fertilizer casually because of greed for small and cheap, this is not only a kind of harm to flowers, but also likely to affect your own physical monitoring!
