How to maintain butterfly orchids after they are withered

After the butterfly orchid blossoms again, if you want to make it blossom again, you can maintain it normally after cutting off the flower stem, but it should also be noted that after a long time of growth, the culture medium of Phalaenopsis will age and need to be changed in time, otherwise the air permeability of the soil will become worse, the root breathing will be poor, resulting in its rotten roots and even death.

After the butterfly orchid is shedding, you can change the basin in May, pay attention to sterilization and disinfection, trim the root, and put it in a cool place with good ventilation, which is beneficial to its growth.

The cultivation of flowers and trees not only needs to master certain technology, but also needs your meticulous care. The above Phalaenopsis culture methods and flower care measures for your reference, more about Phalaenopsis content, please pay attention to the four Seasons Plant Network!

How to deal with butterfly orchids after thanks

After the plants bloom, they always wither. How to deal with the flowers after they fade? Today, let's take a look at how to deal with butterfly orchids and how to deal with butterfly orchids to blossom in the coming year.

How to deal with butterfly orchids after thanks

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 from 4 to 5 nodes at the base, it can blossom again after 2 to 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.

Notes for growing Phalaenopsis:

1. Cultivation media: the common cultivation media of Phalaenopsis are mainly aquatic plants and moss.

2. Temperature: the temperature of Phalaenopsis should be guaranteed first. 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 ℃ to 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 ℃.

3. Watering: Phalaenopsis is native to the primeval forest, with more fog and higher temperature. Phalaenopsis does not have thick pseudobulbs to store nutrients, and if there is not enough temperature in the air, the leaves are wrinkled and weak. Therefore, Phalaenopsis should be cultivated and maintained in an environment with high ventilation and humidity. Phalaenopsis is suitable for growing air humidity of 50% to 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. The principle of watering is to see dry and wet, and when the surface of the cultivation substrate becomes dry, water should be watered again, and the water temperature should be close to room temperature. When the indoor air is dry, sprayers can be used to spray directly to the leaves, and you can see that the leaves are wet, but be careful not to spray water spray on the flowers during flowering. Tap water should be stored for more than 72 hours before watering.

4. 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 and make the flowers gorgeous and long-lasting, which should be placed indoors where there is scattered light, so as not to let the sun shine directly.

5. 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.

6. Nutrition: 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, it is appropriate to use organic fertilizer, 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 to 3 weeks. The time of fertilization is after watering in the afternoon, and after several times of fertilization, orchid pots and orchid plants should be washed with a lot of water to avoid residual inorganic salts harming the roots.

The specific method of how to deal with the butterfly orchid has been introduced here in detail, the butterfly orchid cut off the base of the flower stem to reduce the consumption of nutrients. After watching the treatment of butterfly orchids, when Phalaenopsis withered, you can try to deal with it!

How to cut the butterfly orchid after thanks

Many flower lovers do not know how to cut butterfly orchids after they are withered. Generally, there are two ways to cut them. One is to blossom twice that year, and the other is to blossom again next year. When the butterfly orchids wither, we should cut off the withered flowers as soon as possible, so as to reduce the consumption of nutrients.

1. If the flower stem is cut from 4 to 5 nodes at the base, the advantage of this cut is that it can blossom again after 2-3 months. The disadvantage is that the nutrient consumption of the plant is too high, which is not conducive to the growth of the coming year.

two。 If you want to bloom again in the coming year, you'd better cut the stem from the base.

In addition, when the flower-cutting rod is located, we also need to pay attention to that when the Phalaenopsis matrix is aging, 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 when the new leaves grow in May (late spring and early summer). When changing the basin, cut off the rotten roots, sterilize, micro-dry, plant them in the new water moss and put them in a place with good ventilation and astigmatism. After a month, you can start applying thin fertilizer, and orchid fertilizer can be used.

Here are some key points about the conservation of Phalaenopsis (from: Phalaenopsis):

1. Phalaenopsis likes high humidity, but avoid stagnant water in the basin. Lack of water is easy to cause yellowing of leaves, difficult to save, and stagnant water is easy to cause rotten roots. Avoid stagnant water in the heart of the leaves, otherwise it is easy to break the heart, you can sprinkle water around the basin to improve the humidity, use a spray can directly watering the root, the bottom of the basin can flow out, see dry and wet, avoid large water. Do not spray water after the flowers are in bloom.

two。 Butterfly bogey direct sunlight, like to scatter light. I usually move it to the north balcony in summer and to the south bedroom one meter away from the balcony in winter. The sun can shine for a while from 9 am to 11:00, and the winter sun is harmless and non-toxic.)

3. Although Phalaenopsis likes warmth, it avoids boredom. Keep it well ventilated in spring, summer, autumn and winter, and don't keep it indoors because of the low temperature in winter. In winter, I usually open the window for one or two hours when the sun is sunny at noon, and avoid facing the orchid plant directly.)

4. Raise butterfly orchid must avoid large water, low temperature, stuffy, basin soil permeability is poor.
