Generally speaking, the orchid needs to change the soil once a year, so some flower friends have asked that the best season to change the soil for the orchid is spring and autumn, especially after the flowering period of the orchid. Because of consuming a lot of nutrients, changing the soil in time is not only conducive to timely nutrition, but also makes necessary preparations for the hot summer.

After a long summer, the basin soil nutrition is consumed greatly, and the permeability decreases. If the soil is not changed in time to replenish the nutrition, it will affect the flowering of the orchid in winter. Therefore, after entering the autumn, the northeast region is generally in mid-late September, and the North China region can generally change soil basins from late September to early October (other areas can be determined according to the local temperature).

Winter is the blooming season of Cymbidium, and it is also the time of New Year's Day and Spring Festival, and the market is busier. If the temperature can be maintained above 10 ℃, the pot on the purchased orchid will not have much impact on the normal growth of the plant, so there is no need to buy it home to change the soil.

The summer temperature is higher, the bacteria multiply quickly, the gentleman orchid is mostly in the dormant period, if change the soil and change the basin in this season, it is easy to cause root system injury and rot. Therefore, do not easily change the soil to change the basin.
