How can an orchid become an old hot duck without gaining half a jin of meat for a year?

Orchid is a very delicate flower, that is, beautiful at the same time, but also a little delicate, carelessly easy to rot roots, yellow leaves, or do not grow, do not blossom, and so on, this orchid has not been raised for a year has become an "old hot duck", "half a jin of meat" has not grown, but worried the baby.

Perhaps speaking of this, some flower friends want to laugh, what is called "old hot duck"? Huahua grows in the countryside. In the past, people in the village would raise ducks. What they were most afraid of was the old hot duck, which was fed every day, but did not grow meat. Other ducks can be sold in 4 months. The old hot duck is still small and does not gain weight, but it eats a lot of food, so you can't throw it away.

So how can we change the state that orchids, such as old hot ducks, do not grow?

Give the orchid a sour bath

We all know that to grow well, orchids need not only good roots, but also leaves to absorb nutrients. Usually, there are more ash layers in the air, which can easily lead to clogged pores in leaves, and leaves cannot carry out photosynthesis, so they can not loosen water and nutrients. Metabolism is not exuberant, of course, can not make the plant thrive.

At this time, we can use vinegar with water to clean the leaves, generally choose less salt vinegar, about 200 times the water, can be sprayed on the leaves with a spray can, one is to play a clear role in the ash layer, another aspect is to play a role in sterilization, to prevent black spots on the leaves and other phenomena, generally spray once a half a month.

Feed the orchids and stay away from the "old hot duck" state.

The old hot duck does not grow up, on the one hand, it is the reason of the breed, and the other is the problem of absorption. The same is true of conserving orchids, providing them with nutrients that are easy to absorb. Vinegar contains more acetic acid, lactic acid, amino acids, calcium, phosphorus and other elements, which can not only supplement nutrients, but also play a role in sterilization and disinfection, preventing orchids from black spots, scale insects, or powdery mildew and so on.

The role of vinegar is so great that it is not necessary to buy fertilizer and water flowers directly with vinegar. The answer is no, because long-term use of vinegar will inhibit the growth of microorganisms. Generally, we recommend using orchid-specific organic fertilizer. Nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium content is rich and balanced, adding a variety of organic matter, minerals, amino acids, and pure plant fermentation, there is no stimulation to orchids, you can rest assured to use.

Orchids become "old hot ducks", be careful of disease attack

Sometimes we always complain that orchids do not grow and grow slowly, so we suddenly want to fertilize and water them, but we do not think that others may get sick. While treating diseases, we also have to think about how to prevent diseases and insect pests for orchids. Usually, we should do a good job of sterilizing and disinfecting orchids, that is, to disinfect the pots, flowerpots, or the surrounding environment by mixing vinegar with water 100 times. Do not underestimate this small amount of vinegar. Can well reduce the occurrence of diseases and insect pests.

In short, if you want to stay away from the orchid to become an "old hot duck" state, the above aspects must be done well.
