How to grow clivia in summer

Magnolia is a favorite plant for many flower friends and belongs to mid-light flowers. It takes some thought to raise a good gentleman orchid in summer. The following is how to raise the summer gentleman orchid.

Light

Due to the high temperature in summer and strong ultraviolet rays, putting it in the hot sun will burn the magnolia. Give the magnolia proper shade, or receive the light sooner or later. This not only solves the problem of lighting, but also does not delay the continued growth of photosynthesis in Magnolia. Put the magnolia in a ventilated place in summer.

Growing environment

If the ambient temperature is above 35 ℃, the water in the soil evaporates too quickly, which will make the supply and demand of water and nutrients out of balance. Therefore, it is best to plant Magnolia in the pool or basin (with red brick pad up), and appropriate around the plant and foliar spray water, improve the temperature and humidity of the orchid, (pay attention to the foliar water do not flow into the leaf core, lest the leaf core rot) so that it can grow in about 25 ℃, in order to ensure the safety of summer and the summer growth of Magnolia.

Watering

In the hot summer, the gentleman orchid should adhere to the principle of semi-dry watering, watering thoroughly, watering in the morning or late. It can not be watered as soon as the topsoil is dry, it will cause the basin soil to be too wet and not breathable, and it is easy to have rotten roots or yellow leaves. And when watering the magnolia, we must be careful not to let the water flow into the heart of the leaves, so as not to cause rotten heart disease. The summer temperature is high, the gentleman orchid is mostly in the semi-dormant or dormant state. Be sure to control fertilization and try not to apply fertilizer. If the temperature of the growing environment of Cymbidium is reduced to about 25 ℃, some dilute liquid fertilizer can be applied properly to shorten its dormancy period; if the temperature drops below 20 ℃, then fertilize normally.

Prevention of diseases and insect pests

Due to the high temperature and muggy heat in summer, bacteria and other things are also easy to infect, in the maintenance process to avoid injury to the magnolia, bacterial infection. Some pesticides and other drugs can be sprayed to prevent it in advance. In addition, we should also pay attention to ventilation to avoid the occurrence of scale insects.
