The secret of multiple sprouting of orchids, potted soil is suitable to control watering.

If orchids want to sprout more, it is necessary to choose neutral or acidic soil suitable for plant growth, keep light for about 6 hours a day, and maintain the frequency of watering every 10 days in spring and summer. Germination hormones can also be used to improve the germination rate before the plant germinates.

1. Soil selection

In order to sprout more orchids, it is necessary to choose neutral or acidic soil rich in humus, loose air permeability and good drainage, and control the ph value between 5.5 and 6.5. it can be mixed with 6 parts of rotten leaf soil, 3 parts of red soil and 1 part of river sand, which can ensure sufficient nutrients and better plant growth and germination.

2. Proper shading

Orchids mostly like semi-overcast growth environment, avoid direct sunlight, when the light is too strong, they need appropriate shade. The plants can be grown under scattered light in spring, autumn and winter, and the light can be guaranteed for about 6 hours a day, which can promote plant germination and exuberant growth.

3. Control watering

If you want more orchids to sprout, you must not water them frequently or too much. It is difficult to absorb nutrients in a too humid environment, which is disadvantageous to germination. It is best to maintain the frequency of watering every 10 days in spring and autumn, once every 2 days in summer, and less or no watering in winter.

4. Rational fertilization

Orchids should be fully fertilized in late autumn and fertilized properly in the early spring growth period. Before the plant germinates, some germination hormones can be used to improve the germination rate of orchids. Commonly used agents are oxytocin, Huabao, blue fungus king, etc., according to the instructions can be used, but pay attention not to use too much, otherwise it will have a certain impact on the later growth.
