Orchids are beautiful flowers loved by many people. After an orchid blooms, how should we handle it? To allow orchids to bloom for a longer time, we need to master the correct handling methods. Here are some methods that may help you.
I: Remove Wilted Flowers Timely
After orchids bloom, some flowers begin to wilt because their growth period has ended. At this time, we should remove them promptly. This allows the orchid to continue growing while also enabling other flowers to receive nutrients better.
II: Maintain Appropriate Temperature and Humidity
The environment where orchids grow needs to maintain certain temperature and humidity levels. In summer, we can use air conditioning to regulate the temperature; in winter, we can use humidifiers to increase humidity. This allows orchids to grow in a comfortable environment.
III: Provide Adequate Water to Orchids
Orchids need adequate water to grow vigorously. We can supplement water by watering. However, it should be noted that orchids cannot be immersed in water, otherwise it will cause root rot. We need to master the method and amount of watering.
IV: Keep Orchids Ventilated
Orchids need fresh air to maintain healthy growth. We should keep the air around the orchids circulating and avoid stuffy conditions. At the same time, avoid direct wind blowing on the orchids.
V: Fertilize to Provide Nutrients to Orchids
Orchids need adequate nutrition to grow vigorously. We can provide nutrients by fertilizing. However, it should be noted that the method and timing of fertilization need to be mastered, otherwise it will adversely affect the growth of orchids.
VI: Provide Proper Light to Orchids
Light is crucial for the growth of orchids. In summer, we can place orchids in a cool place to avoid direct sunlight. In winter, we can let light shine on the orchids so that they can grow better.
VII: Avoid Cold Wind Blowing on Orchids
Orchids need suitable temperatures to grow. When the outdoor temperature is low, we need to avoid letting cold wind blow directly on the orchids. Otherwise, it will cause wilting and injury to the orchids.
VIII: Prune Timely
During the growth period of orchids, some branches and leaves may show poor growth. At this time, we need to prune timely to allow the orchids to grow and bloom better.
IX: Prevent Pest Infestation
During the growth process of orchids, they are prone to pest infestation. We need to take measures to prevent pests, such as using insecticides.
X: Avoid Excessive Handling
Orchids grow relatively fragile and are easily affected by excessive handling. We need to minimize moving, shifting, or fiddling with the orchids.
XI: Regularly Replace Soil
The roots of orchids need new soil regularly. This ensures that orchids can continue to absorb nutrients and prevents bacterial growth in the soil.
XII: Deal with Diseased Leaves and Branches Promptly
During the growth process of orchids, diseased leaves and branches may appear. At this time, we need to deal with them promptly to avoid adverse effects on the overall growth of the orchids.
XIII: Avoid Over or Under Irrigation
The irrigation of orchids needs to be properly controlled. Both over-irrigation and under-irrigation will affect the growth of orchids. We need to master the method and amount of irrigation based on the growth condition of the orchids.
XIV: Regularly Observe the Growth Condition of Orchids
During the growth process of orchids, problems may arise. We need to regularly observe the growth condition of orchids and take timely measures to solve problems to ensure healthy growth of orchids.
