Goldfish hanging orchid how to change the basin quickly

Goldfish Cymbidium has well-developed root system and rapid growth, so it is generally recommended to change the pot once a year. In the case of sufficient space and nutrients in the basin, it can maintain exuberant growth for a long time. However, changing the basin is bound to cause some damage to the plant, so the speed of taking the basin will also be affected.

In fact, if we want to make the goldfish hanging orchid serve the basin more quickly and smoothly after changing the basin, we only need to focus on mastering these skills. Today, the editor will share with you the quick way to change the goldfish hanging orchid basin. Let's take a look.

1. Time to change the basin

Because the climatic environment is often different in different seasons, and the effect of different climatic environment on plant growth is often different. Especially when changing pots for flowers and plants, you must choose an appropriate time, and this is also true for goldfish orchids. Generally speaking, changing pots for goldfish hanging orchids is most suitable to be carried out after the end of flowering in March in spring, of course, it can also be carried out in autumn.

2. Preparation of basin soil

Whether the soil is good or not will affect the growth of flowers and plants to a great extent, especially the new soil used to change pots, which should be prepared according to the preferences of plants. Goldfish hanging orchids like fertile and loose, highly permeable and acidic soil, so it is recommended to use rotten leaf soil, garden soil, river sand, and mix well according to the proportion of 4:3:2.

Of course, other better soil allocation schemes can also be adopted, because there are so many soil allocation schemes. When using the new basin soil, it is recommended to mix a little carbendazim into the basin soil, especially if you re-pot it after pruning, this step is even more necessary. This can ensure that the basin soil is clean, free from diseases and insect pests, and is safer to use.

Third, the skills of changing pots

First use a larger flowerpot and make a filter layer, and then put the potted plant together with the flowerpot in the center of the new pot. Then fill the new pot with soil along the perimeter of the flowerpot. Finally, the pot is taken out of the new pot and covered with a thin layer of soil at the bottom of the large groove. Next, after the flowerpot takes the plant together with the persistent soil from the original pot, and puts the whole into the large groove in the new pot, gently compacts the new soil, so that the new soil has more contact with the persistent soil, and replenishes the soil appropriately.

IV. Maintenance and management

After changing the basin, we only need to water the goldfish orchid once to set the root. Of course, when watering, it is recommended to drop a few drops of white vinegar into the water, shake well and then water thoroughly. Because goldfish hanging orchid likes acidic soil, white vinegar can improve the acidity of basin soil, which can make it grow better in the new basin. Finally, put the potted plants in a cool and ventilated place to slow down the seedlings.

In this way, we can change the pot intact without damaging the root system of goldfish Cymbidium. As long as the pot soil is not hardened, we can use this method to change the pot for it, the plant will soon complete the slow seedling, after taking the pot will be able to restore rapid growth.
