There is a difference between different varieties of orchids and more fertilizers.

The orchid has a large color and a flowering period of several months. it is the mainstream variety of Lantern flower in recent years. As there are many varieties of Cymbidium, the fertilization methods of several main varieties are introduced as follows.

1. Cymbidium can be fertilized in the following three ways: first, the fertilizer is proportioned and mixed with the substrate for plant growth and development. The second is to mix the proportioned fertilizer into a solution and pour it into the matrix step by step. Third, the proportioned fertilizer is made into solid: bulk particles or blocks of fertilizer, which can be applied to the surface of the matrix. Fertilize more in sunny seasons to ensure exuberant plant growth, while in dark, cold or rainy weather, fertilize less or not at all.

Second, Phalaenopsis Phalaenopsis needs less fertilizer, and generally should master the principle of thin fertilizer, small amount and diligent application. The spring and summer season is the peak growth period, and the thin liquid fertilizer based on nitrogen fertilizer can be applied every 7 days; the autumn and winter season is the flower stem growth period, and the dilute liquid fertilizer based on phosphorus and potassium fertilizer or 0.5% superphosphate solution should be applied every 10 to 14 days; after budding, it is necessary to stop fertilization, otherwise it is easy to drop buds early.

Third, Cymbidium is the most fat-loving of all kinds of orchids. In the peak growth period, thin fertilizer, water and callose fertilizer should also be applied every 14 days), or solid granular fertilizer should be applied into the substrate in spring and summer to release nutrients slowly for long-term root absorption. In seedling stage and low temperature season, N, P and K compound fertilizer with the ratio of 7 ∶ 6 ∶ 19 can be used for foliar spraying.

Fourth, Dendrobium Dendrobium likes fertilizer, but should apply thin fertilizer and fertilize frequently. The rarefied liquid fertilizer with high nitrogen content should be applied at the seedling stage, and the concentration should be 20%. It should be applied once every 7 days. After the seedling stage, the plant growth is accelerated, and the dilute liquid fertilizer containing more nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium can be applied every 14 days; the concentration is 20%. Be careful not to apply it to the leaves when fertilizing.

Fifth, Cartland timely fertilization can make Cartland seedlings grow strong and colorful. The methods are as follows: (1) it is appropriate to apply light fertilizer, and the fertilizer concentration is 50% to 80% of the general flower fertilizer. The new buds can be fertilized 7 days after they are unearthed, and the principle of small amount and diligent application should be grasped. (2) the fertilizer and water of extremely thin pancakes which are fully mature can be applied every 10 to 15 days during the growing period. Be careful not to apply it to leaves and buds when applying fertilizer. (3) plants of flowering age should be properly applied more phosphorus and potassium fertilizer during flower bud differentiation so as to raise roots and promote flowers and improve the efficiency of photosynthesis.

6. Paphiopedilum: Paphiopedilum needs less fertilizer, so it can only be fertilized during the growing period. After the new buds germinated in the growing period, thin cake fertilizer and water could be applied every 21-28 days to make Ye Maohua gorgeous. During the dormant period, fertilizer should be stopped to make it fully dormant.
