Three keys to growing orchids well

Orchids are both easy to raise and difficult to raise. Its vitality is very strong, the need for fertilizer and water is not much, fleshy roots and pseudobulbs are rich in water and nutrients. But it is not easy to raise orchids well and make them blossom and blossom every year. Some orchids often buy orchids, looking at flowers in the first year, grass in two years, and grass in three or four years. In fact, there are three keys to raising orchids.

First, choose a good environment: it is necessary to understand the natural environment and growth habits of orchids in the wild. According to the growth habits of orchids, it is very important to create a good growth environment. Families who raise orchids should find out their own environmental conditions.

First of all, it is necessary to consider good ventilation, fresh air and no pollution. Orchids love to clean and quiet the environment.

Second, match the plant material: after there is a good environment, the plant material is the key. Because the plant materials used in different parts of our country are different, but no matter what plant materials are used, according to the growth habits of orchids, the basic requirements are the same.

First of all, the thickness of the plant material must be appropriate. The plant material is too thick, it flows away as soon as it is watered, and the poor moisture retention increases the times of watering; on the contrary, the plant material is too fine, poor air permeability and poor filtration, which is easy to cause stagnant water and rotten roots. It is best to match the thickness, which is both breathable and moisturizing. Secondly, the nutritional composition of plant materials should be comprehensive.

Third, watering should be done properly: plants cannot grow without water, and so can orchids. The water quality of natural Rain Water is the best, as long as the plant material in the flowerpot has good air permeability, rain is better than artificial watering. Secondly, use the water in the fish pond, if there is no fish pond, you can store the tap water in the sun for a few days and then use the unpolluted spring water and river water. Do not directly water the orchids with tap water.

Some orchid friends often ask: how many days is it better to boil water? This cannot be answered simply. The general principle is that if we do not dry or water it, it will be thoroughly watered. Specifically, it depends on the season, climate, the thickness of the plant, the size and permeability of orchid pots, the strength of orchid seedlings, and so on.
