Matters needing attention in Phalaenopsis Culture

1. Some friends are always worried about the lack of water in Phalaenopsis, regardless of whether the cultivation medium is dry or not, watering every day, resulting in serious root rot. Although water is the source of life, it can be puffy if you soak in it all day.

2. Some friends apply fertilizer as soon as they have it, and do not pay attention to the concentration. They think that if they apply fertilizer, they will grow faster. It should be noted that Phalaenopsis should be fertilized with thin fertilizer, a small amount of fertilizer for many times. Keep in mind that "replenishment" should not be excessive, or it will be counterproductive.

3. Some friends think that using a large basin can give Phalaenopsis a relaxed environment and sufficient materials. In fact, after using a large basin, the water plant is not easy to dry, it is important to know that Phalaenopsis likes ventilation, ventilation is comfortable.

After introducing the culture methods and matters needing attention of Phalaenopsis, let's take a look at the value and use of Phalaenopsis.

Matters needing attention in how to cultivate Phalaenopsis

Raising some flowers and plants at home is the preference of many friends. Many delicate and beautiful flowers will make life full of hope. Phalaenopsis is one of the most popular potted plants in our daily life. Phalaenopsis is graceful and gorgeous. It has the reputation of "queen of orchid". But many people are not very familiar with the breeding methods and matters needing attention of Phalaenopsis. Below, I would like to tell you about the breeding methods and matters needing attention of Phalaenopsis. I hope it can help you.

Brief introduction of Phalaenopsis

Phalaenopsis likes the environment of high temperature, high humidity, ventilation and ventilation, can not tolerate waterlogging, semi-shade environment, avoid direct sunlight, avoid stagnant water, fear cold, the suitable temperature for growth is 22: 28 ℃, and the overwintering temperature is not lower than 15 ℃. Phalaenopsis is a tropical plant, and the cultivation temperature should be maintained between 15 and 34 ℃. The required temperature is also different in different growth stages.

The growth stage is 26 ~ 27 ℃ and the flowering stage is 19 ~ 21 ℃. In order to get more pedicels, the temperature can be maintained at 18 ~ 20 ℃ for a total of 4 weeks. When the light is insufficient or the daily temperature is too high, it should be maintained at 18 ℃ to strengthen flower induction (induction of flower buds). Because the flowering period should also maintain the growth of leaves, the period of low temperature should not be too long. In the case of insufficient light, if the temperature is more than 23 ℃ for more than 24 hours, it will lead to too much vegetative growth and the loss of buds.

Culture methods of Phalaenopsis

1. There is a natural sowing method, which is to sow the seeds from the cracked capsule in the flowerpot of the parent plant. This method is simple and easy, does not need complicated aseptic procedures and operating tools, and is suitable for ordinary family Phalaenopsis growers. However, this method has little chance of success and is rarely used.

2. Another method is aseptic sowing, in which the uncracked mature capsule is washed, then soaked in 75% 90% ethanol or chloroform for 2 seconds, and then soaked in 5% 10% bleach solution or 3% hydrogen peroxide for 5 minutes for 20 minutes. Take out the seeds and soak them in the same disinfectant for 5 minutes, then remove the solution by filtration, take out the seeds, and spread the seeds evenly on the surface of the culture medium in the prepared bottle with fine needles.

The culture conditions were as follows: light intensity 2000-3000 lux, 10-18 hours a day, and the temperature was kept at 20-26 ℃. After 9-10 months, the seedlings can grow 2-3 leaves and then be planted in pots.

In order to cultivate Phalaenopsis, aquatic plants and moss are generally selected as the cultivation substrate. The principle of fertilization should be less fertilization and light fertilizer. In the normal growth period, 2000 times of special orchid fertilizer was applied to fertilize the roots, once every 2-3 weeks, depending on the growth. Before flowering, we can choose the water-soluble high-phosphate fertilizer 15Mu30 / 15 1000-2000 times, spraying once in about 10 days, and stop applying fertilizer at flowering stage and in the season with low temperature.

1. First, we should spend the summer smoothly. If possible, try to keep it in a place where there is bright light but not direct sunlight; reduce the water supply (although the summer temperature is high, but if the water is too high, it is easy to rot roots and cause plant death); if you think you don't know how to fertilize, you can keep it with clean water all the time, especially in summer, try not to apply fertilizer or apply less. To be on the safe side after summer, the root system and plant materials can be checked again to ensure the basic elements of normal plant growth.

2. Temperature: no less than 15 degrees at night and no less than 18-20 degrees during the day. It is better to have a larger temperature difference. Air humidity: higher air humidity is better, but in home cultivation, the air humidity is difficult to adjust, so that the flowers can slowly adapt to it. At the beginning, you can do foliar spray every day, and the amount should not be too large. Soak the leaves on the line.

3. Observe the growth of root system at ordinary times. The vital root system is the basic element to maintain plant growth. The root color is green, robust, sturdy, and the root tip is red, showing exuberant vitality; if a jailbreak root is found, it means that there is something wrong with plant material or maintenance, and it needs to be adjusted; if the root system is black and rotten, it means that the water is too large, and if some roots have symptoms of dryness, it means excessive lack of water.

Under normal condition, the leaves of Phalaenopsis are bright, shiny, thick and stiff, indicating that the growth condition is good, and the new buds will continue to grow.

The above is for you to talk about the breeding methods of Phalaenopsis and points for attention, is everyone clear? Please pay attention to more knowledge of home decoration.

Culture methods of Phalaenopsis matters needing attention in Phalaenopsis Culture

Phalaenopsis is a beautiful flower, many people like to raise a pot of Phalaenopsis at home, it looks very elegant, but it will also bring a good mood, but Phalaenopsis is also a delicate flower, so the breeding method of Phalaenopsis, matters needing attention in Phalaenopsis culture.

Culture methods of Phalaenopsis:

1. Temperature:

The first thing to keep Phalaenopsis at home is to keep the temperature. Phalaenopsis likes the environment of high temperature and humidity, the lowest temperature during the growth period should be above 15 ℃, and the suitable temperature for Phalaenopsis growth is 16-30 ℃. Attention should be paid to warming at the turn of autumn, winter and spring, as well as when the winter temperature is low. In general, rooms with heating equipment in winter are not difficult to reach, but be careful not to put flowers directly on the radiator or too close to them. When the summer temperature is too high, it is necessary to cool down and pay attention to ventilation. If the temperature is higher than 32 ℃, Phalaenopsis will usually enter a semi-dormant state to avoid continuous high temperature. The flowering period is around the Spring Festival, and proper cooling can prolong the viewing time. The night temperature during flowering should be controlled between 13 and 16 ℃, but not less than 13 ℃.

2. Humidity: Phalaenopsis is native to the primeval forest, with more fog and high temperature. Phalaenopsis does not have thick pseudobulbs to store nutrients, and if there is not enough humidity in the air, the leaves are wrinkled and weak. Therefore, Phalaenopsis should be cultivated and maintained in an environment with high ventilation and humidity. The suitable air humidity for Phalaenopsis growth is 60%-80%. The new root of Phalaenopsis should be watered more in the prosperous period and less in the dormant period after anthesis. The plants grow vigorously in spring and autumn around 05:00 in the afternoon, and the plants are watered at 09:00 and 05:00 every day. The light is weak and the temperature is low in winter. Watering every other week is enough and should be carried out before 10:00 in the morning. In the event of a cold wave, it is not suitable to water, keep dry, wait until after the cold wave to resume watering.

3. Lighting: although Phalaenopsis prefers shade, it is still necessary to make the orchid plant accept some light, especially before and after flowering, appropriate light can promote Phalaenopsis to blossom, make the flowers gorgeous and lasting, and should generally be placed indoors where there is scattered light, so as not to let the sun shine directly.

4. Ventilation: the normal growth of Phalaenopsis needs flowing fresh air, so the ventilation of domestic Phalaenopsis must be good, especially in the high humidity period in summer, it must be well ventilated to prevent heat, and at the same time, it can avoid the infection of diseases and insect pests.

5. Fertilization: Phalaenopsis should be fertilized throughout the year and should not be stopped unless the low temperature lasts for a long time. Winter is the flower bud differentiation period of Phalaenopsis, and the cessation of fertilizer can easily lead to no flowers or few flowers. Spring and summer is the growing period, thin liquid fertilizer can be applied every 7 to 10 days, organic fertilizer should be used, Phalaenopsis special nutrient solution can also be used, but do not apply when there are buds, otherwise it is easy to drop buds early. Long leaves in summer (that is, after flowering), nitrogen and potash fertilizer can be applied. Phosphate fertilizer can be used in autumn and winter flower stem growth period, but it should be thin, about every 2-3 weeks.

6. Cutting: the flowering period of butterfly orchids is usually around the Spring Festival, and the viewing period can be as long as 2-3 months. When the flowers wither, the withered flowers should be cut off as soon as possible, which can reduce the consumption of nutrients. If the flower stem is cut off from the base of 4-5 nodes, it can blossom again after 2-3 months. However, the nutrient consumption of the plant is too high, which is not conducive to the growth of the coming year. If you want to blossom again in the coming year, it is best to cut the flower stem from the base, and when the matrix ages, it should be replaced in time, otherwise the air permeability becomes worse, which will cause root rot, weaken plant growth and even die. Generally speaking, it is appropriate to change the basin in May when the new leaves grow.

Matters needing attention in Phalaenopsis culture:

1. Watering too frequently: friends who cultivate Phalaenopsis are always worried about the lack of water, regardless of whether the cultivation medium is dry or not, watering every day, resulting in serious root rot.

2. The temperature is too low: usually the flowering plants of Phalaenopsis are on the market in early spring, and they are generally appreciated in the living room after buying them home. Although the daily temperature in these places is enough, the night temperature is a little too low. On the other hand, most of the professionally cultivated orchids are in well-equipped greenhouses, in contrast, the temperature and humidity at home are not enough, so the growth of the plant tends to weaken day by day. Therefore, sometimes, no matter how well maintained, orchids still do not blossom.

3. Excessive fertilization: apply fertilizer as soon as there is fertilizer, and do not pay attention to the concentration, thinking that if you apply fertilizer, you will grow faster. It should be noted that Phalaenopsis should be fertilized with thin fertilizer, a small amount of fertilizer for many times. Keep in mind that "replenishment" should not be excessive, or it will be counterproductive.

4. Small plants grow large pots: feel that using large pots can give Phalaenopsis a relaxed environment and sufficient materials. In fact, after using a large basin, the water plant is not easy to dry, it is important to know that Phalaenopsis likes ventilation, ventilation is comfortable.

5. Flower dry bag: today's Phalaenopsis is mostly driven by flowers. After leaving the base, it is easy to have a dry bag problem after the environment changes. At this time, do not think it is dry, do not water more, but increase indoor humidity and control the indoor temperature. The temperature should not be too high. Try to buy flowers with thick petals.

6. Common diseases: Phalaenopsis is prone to soft rot and gray spot. Soft rot is very contagious. Once it is found, the diseased plants can be isolated immediately. The diseased plants can be controlled by manganese zinc substitutes or Haoshengling, usually sterilized once every 15 days. The common cultivation medium of Phalaenopsis is mainly water grass and moss, so the potted plant material should not use soil, but should use water moss, pumice, Alsophila dust, charcoal and so on.
