With the improvement of living quality, more and more people are paying attention to the maintenance of indoor green plants. Among many green plants, hanging orchid is loved by people because of its unique shape and air purification function. Does the hanging orchid盆景 really have the bactericidal effect? This article will reveal the answer for you.
Bactericidal effect of hanging orchid盆景According to relevant research, the hanging orchid盆景 has a good bactericidal effect. The leaves of the hanging orchid contain a substance called "hanging orchid element", which has the effects of bactericidal, anti-inflammatory and analgesic. In addition, the hanging orchid can absorb harmful substances in the air, such as formaldehyde and benzene, thus purifying the indoor air.
Principle of bactericidal effect of hanging orchid盆景The principle of bactericidal effect of hanging orchid盆jing is mainly divided into the following aspects:
1. Adsorption: The surface of the leaves of the hanging orchid has a large number of stomata, which can adsorb harmful substances in the air, such as bacteria and viruses.
2. Photosynthesis: In the process of photosynthesis, the hanging orchid produces oxygen, which helps to inhibit the growth of bacteria.
3. Biodegradation: The root system of the hanging orchid can secrete a special enzyme, which can decompose harmful substances in the air, such as formaldehyde and benzene.
Maintenance skills of hanging orchid盆景If you want to bring the bactericidal effect of the hanging orchid盆jing into play, the maintenance skills are essential. Here are some skills for maintaining the hanging orchid盆jing:
1. Proper watering: The hanging orchid likes a humid environment, but should not be watered too much to avoid root rot. Generally, keep the soil slightly moist.
2. Appropriate fertilization: During the growth period of the hanging orchid, a proper amount of compound fertilizer can be applied to supplement nutrients.
3. Good ventilation: The hanging orchid likes a ventilated environment, so the indoor air should be kept circulating to avoid the breeding of bacteria.
4. Regular pruning: Timely pruning of the withered leaves of the hanging orchid helps to maintain its beauty and growth.
As an indoor green plant, the hanging orchid盆jing has the effects of bactericidal and purifying the air. Mastering the correct maintenance skills during the maintenance process can make the hanging orchid盆jing better play its role. Placing a pot of hanging orchid盆jing at home can not only beautify the home environment, but also bring health to the family.
