When families raise orchids, there are often different neat leaves with long and short leaves, mainly due to the untimely supply of nutrition and the gap between supply.

For example, at the beginning of the spring growing season, its leaves and its plants get more nutrients, it grows very fast, its leaves grow very long. But the middle nutrients are not in time, lack of nutrients, its leaves will grow shorter due to the lack of nutrients, and when we find that it grows slowly, and then go to fertilize it, the third leaf comes out again to get enough nutrients. It is longer than the previous blade, so the continuous cycle will cause this situation. The uneven supply of nutrients is one of the main reasons for the uneven length of its leaves.

Another situation is that we don't water it properly. For example, it grew better in the early stage, but suddenly rotted in the later stage, the root system could not absorb nutrients, and no root system absorbed nutrients to supply its growth, which depended on the nutrients in the plant. When the nutrients in the plant are exhausted, it stops growing for a period of time. If you do not find that it is a lack of nutrients, in fact, it is rotten roots. Its rotten roots are completely rotten and empty in the soil, and then it grows new roots, which does not completely rot the plant, nor does it show on the leaves, but only slightly part of the root system is rotten. After we found that, it has resumed growth, so the leaves vary in length.

Another situation is that our light is uneven. In the process of raising a gentleman's orchid, it must be regularly turned into a basin of 180 degrees, which is conducive to the uniform growth of its leaves and is not prone to tilt. If you are facing in one direction for a long time, the leaf behind it, the backlit leaf, will cause it to be shorter than other leaves due to lack of light, or in bad condition. In the process of maintenance and growth, we should often turn it into a pot, because any plant has phototropism. Including when we go to plant other plants, it will grow a little bit in the direction of light. The same is true of the gentleman orchid, effective rotating basin, can promote it to use the role of light to make its leaves grow neatly, there will not be uneven, or irregular leaves.

In general, the leaves of gentleman orchids are irregular, only for these three reasons. Pay a little attention to it during maintenance, fertilize it regularly, and don't stop fertilizing at intervals. The configuration of loose and breathable soil, loose and breathable soil, watering too much, it is not easy to appear rotten roots. In the process of maintenance, often give it 180 degrees to turn the basin, once a month or once a month, let it get balanced light supplement, in order to make its leaves neat, flat, and thick.

Raised in the greenhouse, they are separated by a plastic film, and then they will be shaded in summer. They also often turn it to 180 degrees, and their light is very full. Therefore, the leaves of raising orchids in the greenhouse are flatter and neat than those raised in the family.
