Orchid is an elegant flower that is loved by people for its unique form and beautiful flowers. However, for the Monarch Orchid to thrive and bloom into gorgeous flowers, it needs to be properly maintained.
First of all, it is crucial to understand the growth habits of the Gentleman's Orchid. Orchid prefers a warm and humid environment, and the suitable growing temperature is 15 -25 . At the same time, it also needs plenty of sunlight, but avoid strong direct sunlight. Therefore, it is necessary to choose a place with moderate light and good ventilation to place the Monarch Orchid.
In terms of watering, it is necessary to follow the principle of "seeing dry and wet", that is, waiting until the soil surface is dry before watering to avoid root rot caused by overwatering. In addition, the demand for fertilizer is high, and it needs to be fertilized regularly during the growing period. It is recommended to use compound fertilizers rich in nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, and follow the principle of small quantities and many times.
In addition, the maintenance of Junzi Orchid also needs to pay attention to the following points:
1.Repotting: Spring or autumn is the best time to repot. Choose pots that are breathable and use loose, well-drained soil. When repotting, gently pat the walls of the pot to allow the soil to separate from the roots, and then remove the orchid from the pot. Prune off old and rotten roots, and place them in a cool and ventilated place to dry. Finally, replant the orchid in new potting soil, gently compacting the soil and watering it thoroughly.
2.Pest control: Regularly inspect the leaves and roots of the orchid, and deal with pests and diseases in a timely manner. Common pests and diseases are anthracnose, scale insects, etc. For the control of pests and diseases, in addition to strengthening daily maintenance and management, biological control and chemical control methods can also be used.
3.Propagation method: The propagation of Orchid is commonly used by the dividing method. Choose a robust mother plant and separate the side buds, each with at least 2 leaves and 1 bud eye. Apply fungicide to the wound, dry it and plant it in potting soil. Store in a well-ventilated, semi-shady place to keep the soil moist.
To sum up, the maintenance of Junzi orchid needs to comprehensively consider the environment, watering, fertilization and other aspects. Only by giving the right conditions for the maintenance of the orchid can it thrive and bloom into gorgeous flowers.
