2024 New Year Outlook Orchids, belonging to the orchid family, have high ornamental value, and orchids in the narrow sense refer to eight species of spring orchids, black orchids, jian orchids, and orchids.

In the past, orchids, inhabiting the mountains and wilderness, were favored by relevant people because of their unique flower shape, floral fragrance and rich connotation, and became a significant cultural symbol.

Entering the new era, orchids, relying on the east wind of capital, have turned into fragrant and sweet, and millions of orchids have made their best rising tide and being wildly sought after.

Although ** soared, but after all, it was only a bubble, as more and more subjects intervened, a cliff-like *** appeared, and the affected crowd continued to expand.

If you want to understand the market of orchids, you need to correctly understand the value of orchids and the reasons for the price drop, so as to formulate a planting strategy that meets the needs of the times and avoid the risk of price decline due to overplanting.

Orchids, because of their ornamental attributes, cultural attributes and commodity attributes, are welcomed by domestic consumers and become market leaders.

Ornamental attributes. Orchid, unique structure, peculiar flower shape, fragrance fluctuating, quiet and profound, colorful, different varieties of plants have their own beauty, such as the bright beauty of tiger head orchid, the elegance of plain heart orchid.

In addition to flowers, the ornamental value of orchid leaves is also very high, leaf posture, leaf shape, pattern as a foil to each other, thousands of postures, long and short matching, thickness and thickness are in harmony, creating a beautiful picture.

Cultural attributes. Orchid, a symbol of good things, cultivation and planting orchids, since ancient times, is the activity of the Moke literati to nourish their temperament, or a good gift for gifts.

Historically, the orchid relics are dazzling, countless, the Northern Song Dynasty court painter watercolor painting, the Southern Song Dynasty Zhao Mengfu Chunlan ink drawing, the early Yuan Dynasty Zheng Sichun's Chunlan ink painting are all typical representatives.

Product attributes. Because of its high ornamental and cultural attributes, orchids have outstanding commodity attributes and high economic benefits, low-end flowers can be used as potted flowers, and high-end flowers can be used for investment.

In the past, when the limelight was strong, millions of orchids were born at every turn, but now the bubble has dissipated, such as Yonghuaisu, Jinsha chrysanthemum and Suding lotus crown, etc., are all flower species that have fallen off the altar.

More and more orchids, with the passage of time, are being abandoned by capital and become ordinary flowers that can no longer be ordinary, and the emergence of these is the inevitable result of market development.

Science and technology help the wind, and the ability to increase the first. With the rapid development of science and technology, the backward cultivation and planting methods in the past have been greatly improved, and the novel technology has helped the development of the industry, and the speed of capacity expansion has increased exponentially.

The more the best orchids, the more attention is paid to, the more scarce varieties are, the more they can take advantage of the opportunity to rapidly expand the scale of planting, which causes no matter how noble the orchid is, it must be naturalized into an ordinary orchid and cannot become an evergreen tree.

The high-priced bubble is backlashing, and the recognition is declining. Although orchids have a rich and fragrant taste, each with its own form, the value varies from person to person, cognition is different, and the ** that is willing to pay is the difference between cloud and mud.

Therefore, when the inflated pricing bubble is ruthlessly debunked, and the cognition of different groups is different, there will be value differences, pessimism and negative emotions will spread from top to bottom, gradually occupy the market, and high-end positioning will be counterattacked.

The withdrawal of capital promoters accelerates the collapse of the industry. As the commercial value of orchids shrinks and profit margins compress, the behind-the-scenes capital that fueled the flames in the early stage has withdrawn one after another, the purchase and sale have become increasingly dull, and the attention has plummeted.

The orchids abandoned by capital have directly put the industrial chain planting and cultivation in prison, and the midstream brokers have stopped and watched, and at the same time, the downstream consumers have been panicked and dare not take over, and the willingness to buy orchids has been greatly reduced.

Counterfeiting is rife, and the foundation of trust is collapsing. The increase in the value of orchid commodities has given rise to a complete industrial chain of counterfeiting and counterfeiting, and some of them are cleverly used to use the Internet platform to act recklessly, and low-end orchids have flooded, resulting in the collapse of the trust bridge between purchase and sales.

Orchids, a variety of species, different ecological habits, coupled with the cultivation area and climate differences, resulting in different management methods, the management process, not only to have the overall scientific management model, but also to study the natural conditions of cultivation, appropriate improvement and upgrading.

Preparation for cultivation. Seedlings can be purchased directly from professional stores online for transplanting, and the planting environment should choose an environment with good ventilation and lighting, convenient irrigation and drainage, and suitable temperature and humidity.

The container and the substrate can be freely matched and randomly selected: the container is selected as purple sand pot, tile pot, porcelain pot and plastic pot; The substrate is selected in the form of blocks, such as bark, fern roots, tiles and coconut shells, etc., and non-blocks, such as moss, cow dung, humus, feathers, etc.

Moisture management. In the watering process, the watering strategy should be flexibly adjusted according to the substrate, season, temperature and humidity and variety, and the moisture and growth should be inspected regularly

The growing period, high temperature, sunny days, good growth, poor water retention should be watered more, dormant period, low temperature, rainy days, poor growth, good water retention should be watered less principle management.

Nutrient management. Natural ecological environment, orchids are rooted in barren rock wall trunks, nutrients are scarce, can not take in sufficient nutrients, so thick fat is harmful and useless, nutrient management should be scientific and reasonable, should be diligent and light, avoid sudden and thick.

That is, the reasonable combination of slow-acting organic fertilizer and fast-acting inorganic fertilizer can effectively supplement the constant and neutral trace elements; The fertilizer should be appropriate, and the dosage and concentration should not be too high, which is easy to damage the plant and hurt the seedlings; And it is necessary to adjust the amount of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium fertilizer according to the seedling situation.

Pest and disease control. Pests and diseases are the common natural enemies of flower and vegetable crops, especially in artificial cultivation, the self-resistance of orchids is weakened, and they are more likely to be threatened by pests and diseases, such as thrips, red spiders, scale insects, nematodes, etc.

In the prevention and control, it is necessary to strictly prevent and defend, eliminate sick and weak seedlings, and strengthen the inspection and disinfection system; It is necessary to comprehensively manage, improve cultivation methods, strengthen light, water and fertilizer management, and improve stress resistance; It is necessary to spray pesticides preventively, alternately use drugs, and eliminate insects.

Finally, I want to say that the ups and downs are all illusory, the thunder and rain are natural, and the fall to the origin that is touted is a return, and it is a great thing for the noble orchid to enter the homes of ordinary people.
