The hanging orchid raised at home is still rotting its roots secretly. Pay attention to these points to turn the home into a secret garden.

Flower recommendation has long become a hobby of many people. It not only decorates our whole room and decorates our lives, but also keeps some flowers and plants at home to make them pleasing to the eyes. And green plants in the sun can release more oxygen. Many people will choose to keep some hanging orchid plants at home, which are not only beautiful, but also will not take up too much area.

Cymbidium belongs to fleshy root, so its root is easy to rot, because its nutrition is absorbed from the outside through its root. If the root of Cymbidium is rotten, its life will not be too long.

1. Cymbidium of soil culture

Generally, the hanging orchid planted in the basin is the most likely to rot the root, because when some people are watering, most of them are over-watered, so that the water in the basin is not removed in time and remains at the root of the hanging orchid. When the root of the orchid is soaked in water for a long time, it will slowly blacken and rot.

In this case, watering should be controlled, and we can move the orchids to a place where the sun is sufficient, so that they can absorb more nutrients, which also makes the water in the basin evaporate quickly. Or make a few more holes around the basin where the orchid is planted, which is more conducive to drainage.

In addition, the root of the orchid may rot because of the nature of the soil, because if the soil is not changed for a long time, the soil is easy to agglomerate and the soil permeability decreases, which is not conducive to the timely material exchange between the root and the outside world. it is not conducive to the extension and growth of the roots.

We can regularly replace the soil with new soil, or loosen the soil, and add some substances that can increase the permeability of the soil, so that the soil becomes loose, so that the roots of the orchid will have better growth space and are not easy to rot.

2. Hydroponic Cymbidium

The roots of hydroponic Cymbidium can be seen visually. We only need to pay more attention to observe the roots of Cymbidium regularly. If we find that the roots of Cymbidium have blackened in the water, we can cut off the damaged roots in time.

If the root rot of Cymbidium is due to a problem with the water quality of the cultured Cymbidium, or the water level added to the bottle is too high, we should change the water in time. And for people who can not grasp the water level, it is best to expose half of the roots of the orchid to the air and the other half to stay in the nutrient solution, which greatly increases the chances of getting oxygen from the roots of the orchid.

The water quality, temperature and water level of hydroponic culture of Cymbidium are several important factors that affect the root of Cymbidium. Once the root system of Cymbidium is blackened and rotten, we should deal with it in time. Only in this way is conducive to the healthy and upward growth of Cymbidium.
