The Culture method of Cymbidium the matters needing attention in the Culture of Cymbidium

As we all know, hanging orchids have a strong function of absorbing harmful gases, if it is a new house decoration, owners will generally be advised to put multiple pots of hanging orchids in the home to purify the indoor air and absorb formaldehyde emitted by furniture. In fact, as long as we take care of it seriously, it is very simple to raise it well.

I. introduction of hanging orchids

Hanging orchid, commonly known as weeping grass, originated in Africa, is now cultivated all over the world, and Europeans call it spider grass or airplane grass. The most important feature of Cymbidium is that the mature plants will grow new stems from time to time, and the new stems will grow into small plants. it likes the warm, humid and semi-shady growth environment, and is suitable for long-term indoor cultivation.

Hanging orchids like a warm, moist, semi-overcast environment. It is adaptable, drought-resistant, but not cold-resistant. Although it is said that Cymbidium has strict requirements on soil, it is found that Cymbidium can grow normally in most soils in practice. However, Cymbidium generally grows better in well-drained, loose and fertile sandy soil.

The flowers and colors of hanging orchids are mainly white, with several flowers in a cluster, which looks clear and pleasant and has high ornamental value. Light requirements are not strict, generally suitable for growth in medium light conditions, but also resistant to weak light. The suitable temperature for growth is 1525 ℃, and the overwintering temperature is 10 ℃.

Hanging orchid has a very strong function of absorbing toxic gases, if the general room raised 1 to 2 pots of orchids, the poisonous gas in the air can be absorbed. According to scientific analysis, the orchid can absorb 95% of carbon monoxide and 85% of formaldehyde in the air. Therefore, the hanging orchid is not only an excellent hanging leaf plant in the room, but also a good indoor air purification flower, so it has the laudatory name of "green purifier".

Second, the culture method of Cymbidium

1. Temperature control

Cymbidium prefers warm and humid climate and is not resistant to cold. It grows fastest at 2024 ℃ and stops growing at more than 30 ℃. The leaves are easy to turn yellow and dry.

2. Light regulation

Outdoor cultivation in summer should pay attention to shade, so as not to make the light too strong, otherwise sunburn can easily occur. Spring and autumn growth season, watering should be adequate, basin soil should always keep moist, and often spray branches and leaves with water close to room temperature, to prevent dry tip, but not stagnant water.

3. Pruning and changing pots

As the plant grows, the old leaves at the base should be cut frequently in order to maintain a good plant shape.

4. Pest control

The dense plant clusters of Cymbidium are poorly ventilated and vulnerable to scale insects, so prevention should be given priority to.

III. Matters needing attention in the culture of Cymbidium

The root system of Cymbidium is quite well developed, and the flowerpot should be changed in time after breeding for a period of time, so as to avoid root accumulation, resulting in yellow leaves, wilt and other phenomena. The following picture shows the root system of Cymbidium which has been cultivated for about half a year. We can see that the root system is very well developed. If the basin is very small, it may cause yellow leaves and other phenomena after growing for a year.

The above is the relevant introduction of this article, I believe you have a simple understanding of this after reading it, if necessary, you can continue to pay attention to the No. 1 home network for more information.
