The culture method of tiger skin orchid

When plant family farming was popular, Hu Pilan had a place because of its strong applicability, decoration and applicability. More and more people began to like Tiger Pilan, but because the popularity of Tiger Pilan was still insufficient, many people did not know enough about the breeding methods of Tiger Pilan, which led to many problems encountered by insects in the process of breeding. Today, I would like to focus on telling readers who love Tiger Pilan about the breeding method of Tiger Pilan and other related matters.

Tiger Pilan is a perennial herbaceous foliage plant with heavy roots, linear lanceolate, strong adaptability and lax requirements on the living environment. It is very suitable for decorating living room and study lamp places. In addition to providing viewing, the biggest feature is that it can purify the air. According to experts, Tiger Pilan can absorb more than 80% of indoor harmful gases, especially for formaldehyde, especially in newly decorated houses. And tiger skin orchid can also protect against radiation, in view of these characteristics, we can roughly draw the tiger skin orchid culture method:

First, the choice of soil

Tiger skin orchid soil needs to be loose and needs to be breathable, so when allocating soil for tiger skin orchid, we must pay attention to the rotten leaves of 2 and 3 and the garden soil of 1. Keep in mind that the soil must be loose and breathable, otherwise the water will not evaporate easily and lead to rotting of the rhizome.

Second, the demand for sunshine

Tiger Pilan likes the light, so be sure to let it often come into contact with the sun, it is best to put it in a place where it can be irradiated directly, and if the conditions do not permit, it should also be placed in a place close to the sun and placed in a dark place for a long time. It will cause the leaves to turn yellow.

Third, temperature

Tiger skin orchid requires a high temperature, its suitable growth temperature is 20-30 ℃, the lowest in winter is not less than 10 ℃, so we must pay attention, especially in the north.

Fourth, watering

Tiger Pilan also has a high demand for water. generally speaking, if the soil is loose, it needs to be watered twice a week, while in winter, it only needs once because of the climate.

Fifth, pruning

The growth rate of tiger skin orchid is faster than that of other domestic green plants, so when the basin is full, it is necessary to carry out artificial pruning, mainly to cut off the old leaves and places that are too lush to ensure its sunshine and growth space.

Sixth, change the basin

Tiger Pilan is a perennial plant, generally speaking, it is necessary to change the basin every two years, and pay attention to adding nutrients to the new soil when changing the basin, so as to ensure its nutritional supply.

Seventh, planting methods

Tiger Pilan is a root plant, generally speaking, only a few plants need to be planted, and after a year, the whole basin will be harvested. When planting, you should first put part of the soil under the basin, then plant it from one side of the basin and plant it evenly in the basin.

Eighth, fertilization

Tiger Pilan does not have high requirements for fertilizer, it only needs to be fertilized twice a month in the growing season, pay attention to the application of thin fertilizer liquid, so as to ensure luxuriant growth.

Ninth, the threat of disease and insect pests

The common diseases of tiger skin orchid are leaf spot and anthracnose, which can be treated by spraying more than 50% carbendazim; common insect pests are harmful to weevil, which can be sprayed with 1000 times of fenitrothion EC.

Reproduction of Phellodendron amurense

There are two common propagation methods of tiger skin orchid: cuttings and ramets.

First, cut in

Tiger skin orchid is usually inserted in May-June, the main method is: cut the leaves into small segments of 5-6 square meters, and then directly inserted into the sand, the one-month effect can take root, but this method is not suitable for some special species, such as Phnom Penh tiger skin orchid, when it is necessary to use the split method.

Second, ramet

The method of dividing plants is also very simple and useful, which is generally carried out when changing pots in spring, mainly cutting the overgrown leaves into several clumps, each of which is not only with leaves, but also has a section of rhizome and sucking buds, which can be planted in the pot at this time.

Analysis on the reason why tiger skin orchid is not tall

First of all, look at the varieties. Some varieties themselves do not grow very tall. For example, some dwarf varieties are only 20 centimeters high. If it is not the problem of varieties, it is necessary to find the reasons for their daily maintenance. The main reasons are:

First, the temperature is too low or too high, if you put it below 10 degrees or above 30 degrees for a long time, you will not be able to grow well, and naturally you will not grow high.

Second, root rot, which is mainly caused by improper watering. If there is too much water, root rot will naturally affect growth.

Third, the light is unreasonable, some people grow flowers never let it see the sun, this is not conducive to the growth of tiger Pilan, naturally does not grow tall.

Fourth, the shortage of fertilizer, which is a common problem, even if there is not enough fertilizer, fertilizer is mainly nitrogen.

In a word, as long as there is suitable light, moderate watering, reasonable fertilization and suitable temperature, the breeding of tiger skin orchid can be very good.

If it is not a variety problem, it is necessary to find out the reasons from its daily maintenance, which mainly include:

First, the temperature is too low or too high, if you put it below 10 degrees or above 30 degrees for a long time, you will not be able to grow well, and naturally you will not grow high.
