1. Can pure soil cultivate orchids

Whether orchids can be raised in pure soil depends mainly on the quality of the soil used and the variety of orchids raised. If the ground orchid is raised, and the soil used has good air permeability and drainage, then pure soil cultivation is also feasible. However, if they are epiphytic orchids, they cannot be cultured in pure soil, otherwise they will grow poorly. It needs to be raised with a mixture of plants with good air permeability, so as to provide them with root attachment points for their attachment and growth.

Second, what is the stress of raising orchids with soil

1, good air permeability: orchid roots also need to breathe, so it should be better internal air circulation of the soil to raise. Therefore, the soil used for breeding orchids must have a certain permeability, so as to ensure that their roots can grow healthily.

Fertility: In order to provide sufficient nutrients for orchids to thrive, it is necessary to plant them with soil with higher nutrient content. If it grows for a long time in poor places, it will grow poorly and appear yellow leaves.

3, not easy to accumulate water: it is more afraid of waterlogging flowers. If there is water in the soil where it is raised, it will cause its roots to be soaked and rotten. Therefore, the soil that raises it should have certain drainage, and the water can be discharged in time after watering.
