How to raise a gentleman orchid on a balcony with poor lighting

The elegant and straight orchid is a plant that many people like very much. it can not only enjoy the leaves, but also watch the flowers, some netizens asked? Here are some notes.

Basin soil allocation

If the daylighting is not good, be sure to use pots with good permeability. Flowerpots are recommended to use pottery pots, tile pots or plastic pots, and the soil should use loose and breathable nutrient soil. This kind of soil is easier to master watering.

Pay attention to water control

Water is not easy to evaporate in the maintenance environment with poor lighting, and after watering, the soil is not easy to dry, so watering should not be done too frequently. Water is not watered after the basin soil is almost dry. Pay attention to watering thoroughly every time, do not pour half a section of water, otherwise it is easy to appear empty root.

Strengthen ventilation

In the case of poor lighting, ventilation should be strengthened to prevent the soil from drying for a long time after watering, resulting in the rotting of the fleshy root system of Cymbidium. Now that the temperature is gradually rising, windows can be opened for ventilation on a sunny morning to enhance the conversion of air circulation. In addition, if you raise a lot of pots of magnolia, pay attention to the distance between the pots and pots, not too close.

Scientific fertilization

When fertilizing magnolia, we should pay attention to scientific and reasonable fertilization. Use compound fertilizer with high nitrogen content during vegetative growth to promote the growth of leaves, but be careful not to apply only nitrogen fertilizer, which can easily lead to thinning and dull leaves of Cymbidium. Proper application of phosphorus and potassium fertilizer at flowering stage can promote flower bud differentiation and bud pregnancy, which is beneficial to flowering and prolonging flowering period.
