How to bind the scape during the flowering period to protect the shape and color of the flower?

Orchid racemes with several or many flowers, the colors are white, pure white, white green, yellow green, light yellow, yellowish brown, yellow, red, cyan, purple, but in the actual cultivation management, because of the wind and rain, the orchid ornamental effect is poor, so today the editor will talk about the orchid florescence management measures, hoping to be helpful to everyone.

First, tie up the scape in time

During the uplift of the cymbidium scape, because the orchid has phototaxis, the scape often tilts to one side, and after changing the direction of the basin, it tilts and grows to the other side, resulting in an "S" shape of the scape. In view of this situation, flower friends can insert a support rod into the basin when the scape is high, and tie it up to make it grow straight up. It should be noted that when binding, do not be too tight, because at this time the scape is still rising, too tight binding will affect the uplift growth of the scape.

Second, avoid the wind and rain

After the orchid flowers bloom, do not let the strong wind blow wantonly, one is afraid of the dry wind blowing wilting petals, the other is afraid of the strong wind blowing off the scape. After the flowers bloom, they should not be caught in the rain or spray water, otherwise the flowers will wither easily and lose their ornamental value.

Orchids can not be drenched in the rain during flowering, but it is beneficial and harmless for orchids to be drenched in rain. There are three main benefits: first, being exposed to rain can wash the dust of orchid leaves, which is conducive to photosynthesis and respiration of orchids; second, Rain Water moisturizes the plants in the basin, which is beneficial to the growth of orchids; third, Rain Water can improve air humidity and promote the growth of orchids.

Third, safely bring flowers to the exhibition

Orchids with good opening products should participate in the orchid exhibition as far as possible. if you are close to the site of the orchid exhibition, you can participate in the exhibition without taking off the pot; if you are far away from the site of the orchid exhibition, you should take it off the pot and take it with you. Pay attention to the following points in the process of de-potting and carrying:

1. Take off the pot carefully so as not to damage the orchid.

2. Carefully wrap the flowers with soft high-grade napkins or silk cotton to separate the flowers from the leaves.

3. Soak the moss with water and squeeze out the water to wrap the orchid root so that the orchid plant will not lose water and the flowers will wither.

4. Roll the whole orchid into a tube with a newspaper to avoid being injured by friction with other orchids. Then put the packaged paper tube into a cardboard box with a vent to avoid squeezing each other and damaging the orchid.

5. Handle it gently in the process of transportation, not upside down. After arriving at the destination, use water moss or moist soft plant material on the basin.
