Growth habits of orchids

To maintain orchids, the first thing you need to know is the growth habits of orchids. If you don't understand the growth habits of orchids, it is difficult to raise orchids well. Orchids like moist, ventilated, semi-shady growth environment, avoid dryness and direct sunlight, and are afraid of stagnant water. I like slightly acidic soil that is fertile, loose, rich in humus and good drainage.

Orchid florescence: February-March.

The flower language of orchids: elegant and indifferent, beautiful, noble and virtuous.

Three key points for the maintenance of orchids

Main points 1. Soil

Orchids like slightly acidic soils that are fertile, loose, rich in humus and well drained. It is generally cultivated with orchid special soil, and flower friends who like their own configuration can also cultivate the soil with their own orchids, which can be mixed with broken bricks, bark, rotten leaves, peanut shells, orchid stone, ceramsite, pine needles and so on.

Main points 2. Watering

Orchids like moist, ventilated, semi-shady growth environment, as the saying goes, "dry orchid wet chrysanthemum". When we water orchids, keep the orchid pot soil eight points dry, two points wet is the best, although orchids like wet but also easy to rot roots, generally watering orchids in the form of spray watering, watering will be more valuable.

Main points 3. Fertilization

Orchids require less fertilizer, the required concentration is also very low, fertilization must be light, nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium can be used, Xiaobian likes to use earthworm dung as fertilizer for orchids, you can also buy some special fertilizer for orchids.

Matters needing attention in Orchid Culture

1. Pay attention to changing the pot soil for orchids every two or three years, which is beneficial to the growth of orchids.

2. Orchids like the growing environment of semi-shade and can not be exposed to direct sunlight.

3. Orchid pot soil should not be too dry or too wet, let alone produce stagnant water.
