What kind of pine bark is good for orchids?

Usually the common pine bark can be used to grow flowers, which may be known to many flower friends, but after picking it up and returning home, the pine bark still needs to be mature before it can be used. Here's how to ferment the nutritious pine bark.

1. Direct fermentation

Put the pine bark directly into a clean plastic bag, add a little water to it, then tie the mouth tightly, put it in a place with enough light and warm to fully ferment, and wait for a month or so to fully mature. If you want to speed up the fermentation, you can pinch the pine bark into pieces, so that the fermentation speed will be faster.

two。 Fattening fermentation

After the pine bark is fully crushed, it is mixed with certain fertilizers such as chicken dung or rice washing water, cake fertilizer water, and then normal fermentation. generally, it can be fermented completely after two or three months of ripening fermentation. the pine bark fermented in this way is more nutritious and easy to use.

Pine bark is brown before it is fully ripened, and becomes darker and scorched black after full ripening and fermentation. After years of accumulation under the pine tree, there is also a lot of naturally mature and complete pine bark, so we can go under the pine forest to dig some blackened pine bark to use.

However, the pine bark dug from under the pine tree needs to be fully disinfected and sterilized, and it can be soaked in carbendazim solution or fully exposed to the sun, so that it can kill eggs and kill bacteria, and then it can be used.
