1. Time to change the basin
If you feel that the orchid is not growing well and has not blossomed for a long time, it is probably because there is something wrong with the soil and you need to change the basin. The temperature is very important when changing the basin, it is best to change it when the temperature is higher than 15 degrees. It is usually chosen in March or April.
2. Trim the root
Before changing the basin, pay attention to trimming the root. In this way, the gentleman orchid will adapt to the new environment more quickly and grow well after that. Cut off the old, intertwined roots, and the weak ones don't have to stay. Generally, 1/3 of the root system needs to be cut off. If there are rotten roots, soak in potassium permanganate for 20 minutes after pruning.
3. Preparation of soil
The choice of soil is very important, and it is best to prepare it yourself. It can mix rotten leaf soil, garden soil, river sand and so on. Can also add some sawdust, rotten bark and other things, so as to enhance the air permeability and drainage of the soil.
4. Whether to change the basin or not

After putting on the basin, water thoroughly first. After that, put the plant in a cool, well-ventilated place. Keep the environment warm and moist until the plant is fully adapted to the new environment.
