How to raise orchids?

1, suitable soil

Before planting, the soil should be fertile, loose and breathable. Adding proper amount of white vinegar to humus soil can make the soil slightly acidic, and burying diluted nitrogen fertilizer can provide sufficient nutrients for plants and make them grow better.

Step 2 control watering

When growing, watering times should not be too frequent to avoid root waterlogging; In summer, the weather is hot and the water evaporates quickly, so it can be watered once every three days. The soil should not be too dry, and the leaves will curl. In cold winter, water once every half month.

3. Rational fertilization

Mizailan is a fertilizer-loving plant. When plants are in the growing period, fertilization is usually done once a week, which can make rice seedlings flourish. When plants are in flowering stage, it is necessary to use phosphorus fertilizer and potassium fertilizer together to make the flowers of plants more fragrant.

Step 4 control the temperature

Mizailan likes to grow in a warm and humid environment, and the most suitable growth temperature is around 26℃, which will make the plants grow vigorously, the new branches grow faster and produce more buds. If the growth temperature of Eupatorium adenophorum is lower than 16℃ for a long time, it will cause plant withering and frostbite.

5, pest control

Michelia is susceptible to anthracnose, which infects leaves and stems. At the early stage of the disease, the leaves of the plant will turn yellow, and the tip will turn dark brown slowly until the whole plant is infected. When the disease is found, it can be sprayed on the surface of the plant with 300 times diluted depositary gold solution.
