A small detail in the cultivation of gentleman orchids, orchids and succulent plants determines whether they can be raised well.

Home breeding gentleman orchids, orchids, succulent plants, usually need to change pots in about two years, just bought these flowers also need to change pots. But it is a small detail in changing the basin, but many people ignore it. It is this small detail that leads to problems with flowers soon after changing pots. Therefore, mastering this detail is the key to raising gentleman orchids, orchids and succulent plants.

Gentleman orchids, orchids and succulent plants, whether they have just been bought or need to be changed, need to be trimmed before they can be put on the pot, that is, the excessive, rotten and withered roots are cut off. After pruning the roots, there must be wounds on the roots. Many people transplant them directly to the flowerpot after pruning the roots, followed by watering, fearing that the flowers they have just planted are dry. But it is this detail that has led to the rotten roots and yellow leaves of many flower friends' cultivated orchids, orchids and succulent plants, and some of them have been raised to death for a short time, which is obviously a wrong way of growing flowers.

As we all know, the root system of orchid and orchid belongs to fleshy root, and there is a lot of water content in the root system, so it is inevitable that the root system will have wounds when changing pots. For example, watering immediately after planting can easily infect the wound of the root, and finally lead to root rot. The correct way to change the basin is to spray the soil with water to make the soil wet. Then transplant, after transplanting can not immediately water, wait two or three days before watering. Because by this time the wound of watering the root system has basically healed, and the same is true for succulent plants. Such as watering immediately after transplanting, the amount of watering is not well controlled, and the wound of the root system has not yet healed, which may eventually lead to root infection and decay. Therefore, whether it is raising gentleman orchids or orchids or succulent plants, we should follow the principle of "dry roots and wet leaves". Only if you raise the roots well first, the branches and leaves can not be wrong, but dry roots do not make the soil very dry, as long as you keep them moist.

In addition, after pruning the root system, you can sprinkle a layer of plant ash or spray some sulfur powder on the root system, which can promote rapid wound healing and prevent bacterial infection. In addition, when transplanting, the gap of the root system must be filled with plant material to prevent the phenomenon of empty root. The environment must be well ventilated.
