It is very important to pot the orchid for four steps, not to rot the roots, not to scorch the leaves, to blossom and fragrance, and to spend less money.

Orchids, from ancient times to the present has a history of more than two thousand years, until now has been deeply loved by flower friends, it can be seen that there must be a lot of conservation experience. Now that the weather is getting cool, many orchid masters have fallen into the pit one after another.

That orchid pot is a technical work, do a good job of this step, the future maintenance will be more smooth. Recently, I specially went to ask an old orchid friend for advice. This pot is good. Bluegrass does not rot roots, less scorched leaves, raise well and spend less money. We must master these four steps.

1. The first step: dry the root. This is just sent from Fujian 3 seedlings, after 4 days of transportation, the state is good, is a relatively strong orchid plant. After the plants are separated, the rotten roots and old roots of each plant are trimmed with sterilized scissors, and then soaked in disinfectant. When Langen is white and soft, it can be put into a place with astigmatism to dry.

Why should we dry the roots? Because the roots of bluegrass will be brittle after several days of transportation, so it is easy to break when planted directly. After washing and disinfection, the fleshy root of the orchid is full of water, and it will become soft and tough after drying, and it can be bent at will and not easy to break when it is on the basin. And after drying the root system, the wound during pruning can accelerate the scab formation and improve the germination rate of orchid seedlings.

Step 2: cushion the basin. Now the basic use of orchids are purple sand basin, shape and material and orchids are very compatible. Then there is the cushion basin, the advantage of which is that it can give the plant loose, breathable and good drainage function. The material of cushion basin Lao Lanyou generally likes to use cinder, or charcoal, these two kinds can play a good role in preventing rotting roots. Orchid friends can also use local materials, such as tiles, peanut shells, melon seed shells are also good cushion materials. Some orchid masters may like to use foam, according to personal preferences, I do not like to use, not only no nutrition, but also poor water permeability.

3. Step 3: put on the basin. Plant materials are all ready, plant materials should be clean, and the principle of use is to go thick to fine. As long as the middle plant material is nutritious and transparent, it plays the role of loose nutrients. For example, medium grain plant material: dry cow dung and grain husk are good choices. As long as the upper layer of plant material is moisturizing and transparent, smaller granular bark can be selected. When putting on the pot, you should move the flowerpot while adding materials, so as to reduce the gap between the planting materials and avoid empty roots.

In order to increase the breathability of the basin soil, you can open a "skylight" for the orchid, that is, add a perforated plastic pipe, and then put on a plastic net. In this way, the plant will not run around when it is watered again, and it can make the rotten root breathe more smoothly. Remember, the whole pot process must not let Langen fold. If it is not covered with a plastic net, a layer of gold planting stone can also hold the plant material. You can plug in a flower and plant detector, and you can check the moisture, fertility, humidity and temperature of the potted soil through your mobile phone. With this flower-growing assistant, combined with your own maintenance experience, orchids are raised well and spend less money.

Step 4: set the root. The fixed root is the first watering after the pot to fix the root of the orchid. Some orchid masters set their roots directly on a good pot, while others pour fixed root water after 2 days, saying that the roots can be absorbed better in this way. Personally, I don't think these 1-2 days have much impact, either.

When watering for the first time, water slowly along the edge of the basin with a small amount of water, and then stop watering when the water comes out of the hole at the bottom of the basin. After 5 minutes, repeat the first action and pour water again the third time. Watering is divided into three times, so that the plant can fully absorb water. Disrelish 3 times troublesome also can use soak basin legal root, the same truth.

If you want to make the orchid grow stronger, give it a special organic nutrient solution for orchids for 10 days of daily maintenance, pure plant fermentation and better root absorption.
