Key points of Phalaenopsis (Spring and Summer) Family Care

When the flowering plants are purchased in the spring (March-May)

The higher temperature in spring is a good time to cultivate plants. However, the plants sold on the market during this period were cultivated in production greenhouses with the lowest temperature above 20 ℃ throughout the winter, so the plants were not very hardy.

After purchasing the plant should be domesticated, the method is to put the pot in the lowest temperature at dawn above 10 ℃, if there is a hotbed or air-conditioned room, the pot on the center, and then slightly heated to protect. Within one month of adapting to the environment, no fertilizer was applied. After that, liquid fertilizer is applied once a week. The interval between watering and fertilization depends on the principle of watering or fertilizing immediately after the surface of the cultivated plant is dry. Special attention should be paid to spraying the foliar surface frequently. However, after the plant is purchased in this period, if you immediately apply fertilizer, change pots or water too much, the plant will not be able to adapt well to the new environment, and the growth of the plant will become worse. After the flowering plants fade, cut off all the pedicels and change the pots.

When the flowering plants are purchased in summer (June-August)

Summer is the best growing season for Phalaenopsis. It is the easiest season for plants to maintain. After buying the flowering plant, it can be placed for about a month. If you put it in a room where there is no sunlight at all, the plant will grow worse slowly. Since the original producer cultivated the plant in a place with 50% shade, it should be placed in a place with similar conditions in the family. Watering should only be done after the water of the plant is dry. It is not good to keep the pot moist. The flowering plants should not be fertilized. After the flowers fade, the pedicels are removed from the base of the pedicels, and the plants are taken out for transplanting. The potted plant 5muri, which had just grown from flower buds, was applied with 1500 times liquid fertilizer once a day. The plant should be placed in a place where 50% of the light is shaded (sunscreen can be used). After the flowers fade, move them outdoors and put them in a well-ventilated place to cultivate plants. The light should also be shaded by 50%.

Summer is the season when plants can adapt to the new environment immediately, but special attention should be paid to ventilation.
