Is fertilization in spring orchid bract good for orchids? Do a good job and grow more and stronger in the coming year.

How to fertilize spring orchids is a problem that bothers many novice orchids. Good farmers generally don't apply fertilizer, because my plant material had a long-lasting fertilizer effect that year. But I also tried to fertilize the spring orchid at the budding stage, and the effect was good.

Fertilization in the bract stage of spring orchid has two advantages: one is to provide the energy needed for orchid flowering, so as not to consume too much bulk nutrients and cause seedling weakening. Second, it can lay a solid foundation for seedlings in the coming year, and the seedlings after flowering in the next year are faster and stronger than those without fertilizer. Therefore, if the fertilization of spring orchid is done in the bract stage, raising seedlings in the coming year will get twice the result with half the effort.

Chunlan usually begins to conceive flower buds at the end of August, when the flower buds are mostly under the soil. The newly sprouted flower buds are very young, and if they accidentally come into contact with fertilizer, they will easily rot to death. From the end of September to the end of October, the flower bud breaks the soil and becomes a real bud, and then the fragrant orchid can be produced after vernalization at low temperature. Fertilization in the bract stage of spring orchids refers to the period from the end of August to the end of October, when the temperature is still warm, Langen absorbs fertilizer well and will not cause fertilizer to rot.

What kind of fertilizer should be used to fertilize in the flower bract stage? The good farmer thinks that it is mainly organic fertilizer, which generally refers to all kinds of rotten cake fertilizer, farm manure and so on. Combined with foliar spraying of phosphorus and potassium-based foliar fertilizer, up and down to comprehensively replenish fertility.

Of course, urban Lanyou can also apply chemical fertilizer for convenience. The good farmer has stressed many times that none of the chlorinated fertilizers can be applied to orchids. We commonly use potassium sulfate ternary compound fertilizer, conditional orchid friends can also use orchid special slow-release fertilizer, relatively safe.

In short, no matter what fertilizer is applied, remember that a principle is not to touch the bud, be sure to keep the bud in a safe range. Foliar spraying potassium dihydrogen phosphate, do not have to worry about the bud, good photographer has tried many times, as long as the concentration of fertilizer solution is safe, it will not cause fertilizer harm to the bud.

Spring orchid bud stage in addition to fertilization, but also pay attention to the need for light, no light bud is very difficult to produce orchids, even if the flower is not fragrant for a long time.
