Many people who breed magnolia will encounter the problem of not knowing how to maintain it. If the arrow is not handled properly, it will cause the orchid to wither and wither. Then come with me to see how to raise the arrow.

If you want to know what to do with the arrow, you must first know the reason why. The reason why orchids clip arrows is generally because the growth temperature is not enough, the suitable temperature for the growth of orchids is 20 degrees Celsius, if the indoor temperature is higher or lower than 20 degrees Celsius, it will affect the orchids to draw arrows; the lack of nutrition in the growth of orchids will also lead to arrows caught in orchids; in addition, the lack of water in orchids will also affect arrows.

Gentleman orchid trap arrows may also be due to improper breeding methods. Gentleman orchid should not be placed outdoors by direct sunlight, proper sunshine is fine. Therefore, inappropriate styles and methods will also lead to gentleman orchids caught with arrows. Too much watering, too much fertilization, too high and too low room temperature, so when the gentleman orchid caught the arrow, we have to prescribe the right medicine, so that we can get twice the result with half the effort and save the gentleman orchid.

Understand what to do with the arrow in the orchid, then we should learn how to prevent the arrow in the orchid. To prevent orchids from catching arrows, we must first understand the habits of orchids and breed them according to their habits. The gentleman orchid likes the environment with large temperature difference between day and night, generally does not need to water too much, can be watered properly in the dry season. In addition, it is necessary to fertilize the magnolia properly and ensure that the temperature of growth is not too low or too low.

The reason why the gentleman orchid caught the arrow

1. Temperature discomfort

The suitable temperature range for the growth of Cymbidium is 15-25 ℃, and the temperature is different in seasons and different stages of development. The suitable temperature for seedling stage, arrow pulling stage and flowering stage is 20-25 ℃, 20 ℃ and 15-20 ℃, respectively, and the diurnal temperature difference of 8-10 ℃ is required. If the temperature is lower than 15 ℃ or higher than 25 ℃ or the temperature difference between day and night is less than 5 ℃, the phenomenon of arrow entrapment will occur.

Temperature control: before the orchid blossoms, we should often observe whether the bulb is protruding or not. Once the bulb is found to be protruding, it is possible to shoot an arrow. At this time, the temperature should be adjusted in time to facilitate scape extraction.

Second, insufficient fertilization

During the period of arrow extraction, vegetative growth and reproductive growth are carried out at the same time, which consumes a lot of nutrients, especially more phosphorus and potassium, if it can not be supplied in time, arrows will appear.

Fertilization and maintenance: after the orchid has been raised for 3 years, the number of fertilizers must be increased in autumn. It is best to apply liquid fertilizer with high phosphorus content, and alternately fertilize nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium fertilizer. If necessary, 0.2% potassium dihydrogen phosphate foliar fertilizer can be added to promote the formation of flower buds and early flowering.

Third, improper watering

When the orchid pulls the arrow, the lack of water in the plant will hinder the scape growth and lead to the arrow entrapment, while the basin soil is too wet, which will cause rotten roots and affect the arrow extraction of the orchid. Watering maintenance: when the gentleman orchid draws arrows, the conventional watering method should be used to increase the amount of water properly to keep the basin soil moist, and never wait until dry. The most suitable water content of basin soil is 20%, 40%, and the air relative humidity is 50%, 60%, no more than 80%.

Fourth, lack of light

Magnolia is a medium-light flower, when the light rate is more than 60% or less than 20%, it will affect the growth and development of orchid, especially before flowering, and if the light is less than 8 hours a day in winter, it will also affect arrow pulling. Light regulation: in the winter when the light is weak, the magnolia must be placed in a position where the light is sufficient. If you encounter continuous overcast and rainy weather, you can use a 25-watt incandescent lamp to make up the light regularly.

5. Consolidation of basin soil

Magnolia likes to grow in neutral or slightly alkaline soil that is fertile, loose, breathable and with good water retention. If the soil is hardened, it will cause malnutrition and arrows because it is difficult to absorb nutrients into the soil. Soil treatment: it is necessary to change the basin in time to improve the physical structure of soil, which is beneficial to the growth of root system and the decomposition of soil organic matter and mineral elements.

The above is the whole content of how to deal with the arrow in the gentleman's orchid that I have summarized for you. I hope this article can help you. Please continue to follow us.
