Raising flowers is a very profound knowledge. Beginners will raise some good ones at the beginning. But with the growing time of flowers, you may want to challenge yourself and raise some beautiful but delicate flowers, such as orchids. Orchid has been deeply loved by people, we all love its integrity and quality, but orchid is not easy to raise oh. Let's have a look.
Orchid plant shape compact, tall and straight leaves, evergreen, until after flowering, sending out bursts of fragrance, can make people relaxed and happy. However, the high temperature in summer makes it very difficult to cultivate orchids, especially if the novice is a little careless, it will make them go directly. However, as long as we do the following, we can make sure that orchids can safely spend the summer and the flowers will burst in pots.
water content
In summer, the temperature itself is relatively high, so the evaporation of water is faster, so we need to increase the frequency of watering orchids, and keep the soil slightly moist, but when watering, we need to pour along the edge of the basin soil, otherwise it will be easy to rot on the top of the orchid. We can also spray some water around the orchid to reduce the temperature.
illumination
In summer, the light is strong, it is more shade resistant. If it is cultured in the place with strong light, it will burn the leaves, and slowly it will make the leaves wither and fall off, and even die directly. So in summer when the cultivation of orchids, we must give it a shade, when the light is weak, we can properly irradiate a little light.
improve air circulation
Summer is not only high temperature, but also sultry. If it is cultured in a poor ventilation environment, it will be very harmful to the growth of orchids. So in summer, you can open more windows, when it's very stuffy, you can use an electric fan to blow, which can speed up the air circulation.
apply fertilizer
In summer, when the temperature is high, do not fertilize the roots, otherwise it is easy to burn the roots of orchids, which is not worth the loss. You can use 0.2% potassium dihydrogen phosphate to spray wet the leaves of orchids, which can also supplement nutrients to orchids. We can also give more soil to the orchid pine to avoid root rot.
Many people raise orchids often have some problems, especially in summer, the leaves are easy to dry and yellow. Today, floret will tell you about the prevention and control method of this situation, as long as the following points are done well, there is no problem basically!
1. Avoid exposure to the sun
Orchid is more delicate, its quiet and beautiful is people's favorite place, and this appearance doomed it can only be gentle care. Therefore, don't put it in the strong sunlight, otherwise the plant can't stand it. The first reaction is that the leaf tip withers. In fact, usually only need to be placed in a cool place, can enjoy a little scattered light to maintain normal growth on the line, it is not beautiful in the sun.
2. Control temperature
Orchids are not resistant to cold and heat, so if you want to grow well, you must keep a certain temperature. It should not be lower than 10 degrees in winter, otherwise it will be frostbite if it is too cold. In summer, it should not be higher than 30 degrees, otherwise the temperature is too high, the leaves are easy to dehydrate and become withered and withered. So don't put it in too hot place in summer. If it doesn't work, you can often spray water in the air to keep the leaves moist.
3. Thin fertilizer is frequently applied
Orchid is still relatively large demand for nutrients, in the process of its growth must absorb enough nutrients, otherwise not only slow growth, leaves will also appear withered. Therefore, it is necessary to supplement fertilizer in time, and some organic fertilizer can be used. However, when applying fertilizer, it should be a small amount and many times, which can make the plant absorb better and avoid fertilizer damage caused by too much fertilizer.
4. Reasonable watering
The root system of orchid is a fleshy root with good water storage capacity, so watering should not be too frequent. It is best to wait until the soil is completely dry before pouring, otherwise it is easy to appear ponding, so the big white root can not be preserved, it will be damaged, which will affect the growth of leaves. Therefore, when watering in summer, we must pay attention to keep the soil moist. We don't need to water too often, but we can often spray water around to keep moisture.
5. Disease prevention
There will be more pests in summer, in order to ensure the normal growth of orchids, prevention work is indispensable. We can spray carbendazim every month to kill bacteria, so that some common viruses and pests can be effectively prevented.
In this way, the orchid can maintain its vigorous vitality, and when the weather turns cool, it can open beautiful and fragrant flowers, isn't it very much to look forward to?
