What is the best soil for orchid cultivation and what soil allocation schemes are there?

Loam is very important for plant growth, orchids need to be breathable, hydrophobic, will not produce stagnant water, but also have certain nutrients, the pH value should be on the low side. The soft matrix is mainly composed of rotten leaf soil, adding granular soil, sawdust, coarse sand and so on. The main component of the hard matrix is granular matter, mixed with a certain loam. Can also be mixed with soft and hard, pay attention to the lower layer of larger particles.

What kind of soil should be used for cultivation

Loam is very important for plant growth, is the basis of growth, its requirements for soil need to be breathable, hydrophobic, will not produce stagnant water, but also have certain nutrients to maintain growth, pH value should be kept small, not too sticky, hardening, otherwise water is difficult to penetrate, nutrients can not be guaranteed, so that the root system can grow healthily in it.

II. Soil allocation scheme

1, soft matrix: the main composition is rotten leaf soil, which can be added with granular soil, sawdust, coarse sand, so that the preparation can ensure soft, breathable, and certain nutrition. In this way, it is necessary to ensure that the hand is clenched, and it can be dispersed automatically after releasing the hand.

2. Hard matrix: the main component is granular material, which can be mixed with pebbles, broken bricks and rotten wood blocks with certain loam, which can fully ensure the effect of air permeability and drainage, and will not produce stagnant water.

3, soft and hard mixture: add broken brick grains to rotten leaf soil and sandy loam soil, pay attention to the use of larger particles below and finer matrix above.
