Crab claw orchid belongs to the epiphytic succulent plant of cactus family, shrubby, stem hanging, many branches without thorns, flowers solitary on the top of the branch, with high ornamental value, loved by many flower friends.

After the crab claw orchid enters autumn, as the weather turns cool, it also slowly resumes growth, but some flower friends reflect that their own crab claw orchid leaves have been weak since the beginning of autumn. How is this going on? Be familiar with these two points and grow up straight and crazy!

The first point: the lack of water causes the leaves to be soft, and the second point: rotten roots cause the leaves to be soft, and die directly in serious cases, so we should first judge what causes the leaves to be weak.

There is some softness in summer itself, but it is only softer in autumn. This situation is easier to solve. This is caused by lack of water. You only need to absorb enough water to restore growth, but remember not to pour it into the head. Let it absorb too much water at once, water it slowly, let it recover slowly, then put it in a well-ventilated place and spray water on the stems and leaves once or twice a day. Increase the humidity, you can make its leaves become straight, green and shiny.

As for the weakness of the leaves caused by root rot, to a large extent, it is caused by excessive watering or accumulation of fertilizer. It is necessary to immediately change the basin for the crab claw orchid, cut off the rotten root system, and choose the stems and leaves properly. Only in this way can it take root faster, soak it in carbendazim for about 10 minutes after pruning, and then put it in a cool place to dry before entering the basin.

If you want the crab claw orchid to take root and recover quickly, it should be irrigated with "pulsating water". The "pulsating water" mentioned here is the aqueous solution of aspirin, which contains salicylic acid, which can promote the rooting and sprouting of crab claw orchid, make it recover quickly, bud and blossom quickly, and aspirin has the function of protecting the root system.

Specific operation: a piece of aspirin is exchanged for 1L of water, ground into powder and fully stirred with water, poured into the basin soil, irrigated every 7 days or so, continuously irrigated 2-3 times.

This is the end of the conservation of crab claw orchids. Flower friends have other additions. You can share them with you in the comments area below. If you want to know more about flower cultivation, you can pay attention to flowers.
