The cultivation methods and precautions of Phalaenopsis, the old farmer summed up six basic methods.

You see, these round, round and heart-shaped leaves are like strings of wind chimes swaying in the wind, which are very beautiful. This is Phalaenopsis with very high ornamental value. Some people may find it strange. At first sight, I don't know how to cultivate. So what are the breeding methods and precautions of chlorophytum? Let me introduce you.

Cultivation method of chlorophytum 1 soil

Chlorophytum likes to grow in soil rich in organic matter, loose and fertile, well ventilated and drained. Such as humus soil, peat soil, garden soil and Shahe, and a small amount of base fertilizer can be added as matrix.

2. Temperature

Chlorophytum likes warm and humid environment, and the most suitable growth temperature is 20-30 degrees. When the temperature exceeds 30℃ in summer, it will stop growing, which will easily lead to yellowing of leaves and dry tip. In winter, it is best to keep the temperature at 10℃ and not lower than 5℃, otherwise there will be freezing damage.

3. Lighting equipment

Chlorophytum likes semi-shady environment. If the light is insufficient, it is easy to turn the leaves into yellow-green. Too much light will burn the leaves. Therefore, we should get enough light in the cold winter. In summer and autumn, because the light is too strong, it can be placed in a cool and ventilated place.

water

In the growing season of chlorophytum, due to the large water demand, it can be watered every 2-3 days to ensure that plants have enough water for growth. Because it is dormant in summer, you can water it once a week. Gradually reduce watering after autumn and winter to improve the cold resistance of plants.

5, fertilization

When we fertilize Phalaenopsis, we should save fertilization and be diligent in fertilization. In the vigorous growth period, dilute liquid fertilizer can be applied twice a month, usually mainly nitrogen fertilizer, and wet foliar fertilizer, mainly 1-3% nitrogen fertilizer and potassium dihydrogen phosphate, is beneficial to the growth of green leaves.

6, pests and diseases

There are few pests in chlorophytum. Generally speaking, the most common pests are aphids or mites. When these pests occur, they can be killed with 500 times omethoate or 1000 times dicofol.

Preventive measures of chlorophytum

1. When the weather is dry, you can spray more wet water on the leaves to keep the soil and surrounding air moist. Chlorophytum can be changed once every two years, and the soil can be rearranged.

2. If the stems and leaves of Phalaenopsis stretch for a long time, they should be trimmed. For example, the cut stems can be used as cuttings. When the cuttings are 3-5 nodes long, the core can be removed, which can promote the growth of lateral buds and keep the plants beautiful.
