What are the vernalization steps of orchids?

The Winter Solstice after the bud of Cymbidium and Cymbidium began to vernalization, Cymbidium and Cymbidium have grown buds, when the flower bud grows to three or four centimeters high, the growth rate obviously slows down or stops growing, vernalization should be carried out in the environment of 2-10 degrees, vernalization time should not be less than 30 days, for orchids that do not have buds, low temperature vernalization should be carried out before and after the Winter Solstice, vernalization time should not be less than 30 days, not more than 60 days.

Cymbidium and Cymbidium do not have to go through vernalization to blossom, but the vernalization of Cymbidium and Cymbidium are of much better quality and bloom neatly without arrows.

If orchids want to produce high-quality flowers, they must go through a period of continuous low temperature before they can change from vegetative growth to reproductive growth. to put it simply, vernalization of orchids means to change orchids from vegetative growth to reproductive growth.

Orchids almost stop growing due to low temperature dormancy, and the main thing to do at this time is to accumulate nutrients, which are mainly provided to the buds of orchids.

The purpose of vernalization of orchids is to let dormant orchids accumulate nutritional stimulation for reproductive growth, and then transfer nutrients to the bud for flower bud differentiation, and have enough nutrition for bolting and flowering to get a good opening.

Supplement nutrition for orchids before vernalization at low temperature, apply foliar fertilizer to supply nutrients in advance, the more energy accumulation, the fuller the flower buds in the later stage, the more bright and beautiful bolting and flowering.

The potted soil should be kept dry and not too wet, because at this time the orchid is in a dormant state and its living activities are weak. if the potted soil is too damp, it may break dormancy and release low-temperature vernalization ahead of time.
