Lan is very strict with the soil.

We all know that orchids are fleshy roots and symbiosis with orchids, so the natural humus soil for orchids is the best. Orchid mud (humus soil of origin) is commonly used to raise orchids in the south, and perlite and vermiculite and humus soil can be artificially prepared into culture soil in the north. The principle is: loose, permeable and ventilated. As the saying goes, bluegrass is well raised, but the wind blows just like that. Orchids avoid alkali, so use soil to be slightly sour.

The fertilizer of orchid must be light.

Orchids and orchids symbiosis, nutrient self-sufficient, coupled with their own slow growth and other reasons, nutrient consumption is low, so basically no basic fertilizer, topdressing, experts generally use potassium-containing plant ash water, adhere to the principle of frequent application of thin fertilizer, must not be concentrated; unrotten fertilizer will cause corrosion to the rotten roots of orchids, which should be avoided. In addition, the cultivation of orchids must cultivate orchid bacteria, and the two are symbiotic and indispensable, so the new orchid uses the old soil, and the old orchid can establish a new symbiotic mechanism with the new orchid.

Watering is the key to orchid cultivation.

As the saying goes, it takes ten years to water orchids. The key to orchid cultivation lies in root cultivation, and the key to root cultivation lies in watering. The orchid water is big and the root is rotten, the water is small and the root is empty: the water is big and scorched leaves, the water is small and the leaves are shrunk. Watering generally follows the principle of not seeing the soil dry and not watering, and should not be half-dry and half-wet. Those who raise orchids for the first time need bamboo sticks to measure soil moisture. If the bamboo sticks are wet, the orchid roots are wet; when the bamboo sticks are dry, the orchid roots are dry. After watering, there is also dehumidification treatment and so on. Therefore, the watering of Lan can not just talk on paper, it takes time to practice.

Lighting needs attention.

Orchids come from deep mountains and valleys, naturally like shade, direct sunlight will affect the growth of orchids, so orchids are suitable for ventilation under eaves and in the study.
