As a popular orchid variety, Phalaenopsis is loved by flower lovers for its gorgeous and colorful flowers. However, sometimes we may encounter a situation where Phalaenopsis does not bloom for a long time, and spraying an appropriate amount of potassium dihydrogen phosphate may be an effective solution. This article will ** how to correctly use potassium dihydrogen phosphate to promote the methods and precautions of phalaenopsis.
1.Effects of potassium dihydrogen phosphate:
Potassium dihydrogen phosphate is a common flower fertilizer, which contains phosphorus and potassium, which play an important role in the growth and development of plants and the formation of flower buds. In the maintenance process of Phalaenopsis orchid, appropriate spraying of potassium dihydrogen phosphate can promote the flower bud differentiation of plants and improve the flowering rate.
2.Method of spraying potassium dihydrogen phosphate:
Dissolve an appropriate amount of potassium dihydrogen phosphate in water and spray it on the leaves of Phalaenopsis at a frequency of every 10 days. Since the root system of Phalaenopsis is mainly aerial roots, the stomata on the leaves are one of the important ways for it to absorb nutrients. Therefore, leaf spraying can allow plants to absorb potassium dihydrogen phosphate more effectively, so as to promote flower bud differentiation.
3.Notes:
Use a diluted solution of potassium dihydrogen phosphate for spraying to avoid leaf burns caused by excessive concentration.
For a few hours after spraying, try to avoid direct sunlight to avoid light burns on the leaves.
Regularly check the leaf and root condition of your plant to ensure its healthy growth.
Conclusion: Appropriate spraying of potassium dihydrogen phosphate can effectively promote the flower bud differentiation and increase the flowering rate of Phalaenopsis orchid. However, it is necessary to pay attention to the dilution concentration and spraying frequency during use, as well as the growth state of the plant. With the right way to use it, combined with sufficient light, it can help phalaenopsis form buds as soon as possible, bringing us more flowers and beauty.
