The hanging orchid always wilts and does not grow long. This is the original problem.

Hanging orchid this kind of plant, concise and elegant without losing chic and generous, is very suitable for indoor potted plants planted at home.

And the leaf of hanging orchid is evergreen all the year round, whether it is hanging in front of the window or on the balcony, it can make people feel comfortable and comfortable.

The slender leaves of the orchid can also absorb harmful gases and effectively purify the air, bringing a pleasant environment to the whole family and beneficial to human health.

However, many people have responded that after raising hanging orchids for a period of time, there will always be yellow and withered leaves, or even black zoom at the top of the leaves. Why on earth is this, and how should it be solved?

Reason 1: the area of the basin is too small

Because the growth rate of the orchid is relatively fast, so in the process of cultivating the orchid, it is necessary to change the basin regularly according to its growth situation to create more space for its growth.

If you do not change the basin for a long time, it is easy to cause the root system to be confined in a narrow space and not to stretch, and the growth of the leaves will certainly not be exuberant.

Solution: in this way, the basin must be changed. Take the orchid out of the old basin, cut off the rotten roots and dead branches and leaves, and then change it to a large basin for culture. After changing the basin, put the orchid in a cool and ventilated place and wait for the slow basin to recover.

Reason two: the temperature is too high and the sun is too strong.

Especially in summer, the temperature is too high, the air is muggy, if you do not pay attention to shade, maintain ventilation, it is likely to cause the leaves of Cymbidium to appear burning yellow, leaf tip withered yellow decline.

Solution: immediately move the orchid to a cool environment and cut off the withered and yellow leaves to enhance ventilation. Water can be sprayed on the surface of the blade to speed up the recovery of the orchid.

Reason 3: root rot

There are many causes of root rot, either because the soil is too hardened or because it is overwatered. The root system of the plant is rotten and can no longer absorb water and nutrients from the soil, which can easily lead to leaf withering.

Solution: immediately remove the whole orchid from the flowerpot, clean up the soil above, trim off the festering part, and then plant it in sandy soil. Don't irrigate too much water during cultivation until the new roots grow.

Pre-prevention

1. Keep the environment moist

As the leaves of the orchid are more, and luxuriant, so it needs more water, so we should not only pay attention to grasp the amount of water to ensure the soil moist inside the flowerpot, but also often wipe the leaves of the orchid with a damp cloth to wipe off the dust on the surface to keep it fresh.

In addition, you can often spray some water into the air around the orchid to play the role of moisturizing.

2. Summer shade

Although the hanging orchid is accustomed to the light environment, but avoid strong direct sunlight, do not let it receive strong light in summer, so as to avoid burns on the leaf surface.

3. Change the basin regularly

Hanging orchids should still be matched with flowerpots that match their size. if the pots are too small, it is easy to limit their growth and hinder their extension and development. Generally speaking, it is best to change the basin in the spring and autumn season, replacing the small basin with a larger one.
