How to judge whether orchids are short of water

Orchids are terrestrial plants that like moisturizing and waterlogging. Many beginners, for fear of lack of water, ended up watering too much water and rotting away the fleshy roots of orchids. The watering principle of Tupi orchids is "better dry than wet", as long as the orchid soil is kept moist. On the contrary, orchids cultivated in soilless culture are "better wet than dry".

Orchids should not look at how often they are watered, but mainly depends on whether the soil is thirsty or not.

The dry humidity of orchids is more difficult to master, especially for beginners. Now most of us use hard particles to plant orchids, which is even more difficult to master. The basin looks dry, but the bottom is still wet. How to master it? There is a small way to observe, with a small toothpick (preferably wooden), inserted into the edge of the basin, 1-2 hours later pull out observation, if the toothpick is wet, do not need to water, if the toothpick is dry, water thoroughly, by observing the dry humidity of the toothpick to determine the amount of water in the basin, decide whether to water or not. This can generally meet the water needs of orchids without getting too wet and dry.

It is better for orchids to be watered with Rain Water and spring water, and tap water or rice water should be used overnight. When watering, pour from the edge of the basin, not into the bud. The amount of watering should be determined according to the air temperature, the degree of dryness and humidity of the basin soil and the growth of bluegrass. The leaves are mostly watered, but the leaves are thinly watered. From April to May, the new bud has not yet grown soil, the basin soil should be dry, too wet new bud is easy to rot; June-September is the orchid bud growth period, the amount of water should be increased, every sunny morning or watering once, do not water at noon hot sun. To reduce the amount of water in autumn, foliar spray water can be used to keep the basin soil moist, and the amount of water should be controlled in winter to keep it "80% dry and 20% wet".

The right way to water orchids

When watering orchids, be sure to water the soil thoroughly, but do not pour water into the center of the leaves, because if the water does not evaporate, it will harm the growth of the plant. You can use spray cans and other tools to water it, or you can use the soaking pot method, that is, put the flowerpot in the tray and wait for half an hour to take it out. In addition, spray bottles should be used to sprinkle water to the plants, which can increase the air humidity very well.

People summed up several methods of watering orchids, such as perfusion, sprinkling, infiltration and so on, each of which has its own advantages and disadvantages. If the family grows orchids, perfusion is the best choice.

The pouring method is to inject water along the edge of the orchid basin until the basin bottom overflows and then irrigates a part of the water, and the watering work is over.
