What soil is the best to grow orchids and how to prepare them?
First, what soil?
1. The drainage capacity of soil should be strong. Because if there is no drainage, slightly inadvertently will accumulate water, then the consequence is that the leaves of the light plants wilt yellow, and the heavy ones die directly, so this is very important and must be used as the standard of selection.
2. The air permeability is also good. Why do you say so? if the air permeability is very poor, it means that the soil is hard and hardened, so that if the root system cannot be extended, it also hinders the growth of the plant. In addition, it is impossible to carry out gas exchange. The plant will not grow very well.
3. It has to be fertile. Only fertile soil can cultivate delicate and beautiful flowers. If it is too barren, not to mention growing well, normal life activities are difficult to maintain, and some humus can be added appropriately to enhance fertilizer efficiency.
2. Preparation
1, you can use the vegetable garden soil at home plus rotten leaf soil to configure these natural nutrients, only need to simply mix it, it is not complicated.
2, you can also use humus plus some fine river sand and laterite, the three can be used evenly, pay attention to care.
