Fertilization methods for planting Dendrobium

Dendrobium is a very precious traditional Chinese medicine, but there are many kinds of Dendrobium, according to statistics, there are thousands of species, but only dozens of them are of medicinal value. The planting area of Dendrobium has been increasing, but it still can not meet the needs of the market. At the same time, many Dendrobium growers also ended in failure. Today we will focus on learning the fertilization methods of Dendrobium planting. Let's take a look.

1. Topdressing time

The time of topdressing of Dendrobium is usually in spring and winter, and it is best to choose after sunset in the afternoon. Because we fertilize, no matter how careful will cause certain damage to the roots of Dendrobium, so we fertilize at this time, Dendrobium has a certain recovery time, and the absorption of Dendrobium is better. At the same time, we should remember that it is best not to fertilize in summer and autumn, and of course, do not rule out the necessary circumstances, it is better not to apply fertilizer until it is necessary, so as not to affect the normal growth of Dendrobium.

2. The principle of topdressing

The principle of topdressing Dendrobium is to apply thin fertilizer diligently. That is to say, in the period of fertilization, we should master the intensity of fertilization, lower the concentration as far as possible, and apply fertilizer several times, which is much better than applying too much fertilizer at one time. Although it is necessary to apply thin fertilizer frequently, it should also be applied to a certain degree, usually at least every ten days or so, and do not change fertilizer frequently so as not to cause discomfort to Dendrobium.

3. Topdressing condition

We also have conditions for topdressing Dendrobium, which does not mean that it is possible to apply fertilizer directly during the period of fertilization. First of all, we need to grasp the temperature of fertilization. Generally, the temperature of the planting ground is between 15 and 30 degrees. It is possible to apply fertilizer at this time, but if the temperature is lower than 15 degrees or higher than 30 degrees, it is best not to apply fertilizer. The second is to observe the growth of Dendrobium when fertilizing, and not to fertilize scientifically according to the different growth periods of Dendrobium. In the early stage of growth, nitrogen fertilizer is the main fertilizer, while potash fertilizer and phosphate fertilizer are mainly used in flowering stage and bulb stage.

4. Topdressing method

The method of topdressing Dendrobium is simple and not simple, saying that complex game is not complex, as long as you remember the nine principles. They are no topdressing in dormant period, no topdressing in flowering stage, no fertilization in newly planted Dendrobium, no fertilization near roots, no concentrated fertilizer, no mature farm manure, no partial application of nitrogen fertilizer, diseased plants, weak plants, and no fertilization in budding period. If you master these nine principles, it will be easy to apply fertilizer.
