Simple Oncidium Cultivation Method
Today, I will introduce you to the content about the orchid plant Oncidium, specifically the simple cultivation method of Oncidium. Details are as follows:
There are several articles on the website about the care of Oncidium. The reason for compiling this article is that it is relatively simple and suitable for novice plant enthusiasts to refer to. I hope this simple Oncidium cultivation method is helpful to plant enthusiasts!
1. The planting material is sphagnum moss, with some bark and stones at the bottom of the bottle. The key is to have some space at the bottom, with larger cavities. This can create a relatively humid and stable micro-environment, which is beneficial for the growth of aerial roots of this type of orchid.
2. The water level in the water-filled bottle should not be too high. The water should just cover the cap of the upper bottle. (There are holes in the cap.) Generally, it is enough to replenish the water every two months. It's fine if the water is occasionally low, as long as the bottom of the upper bottle remains moist.
3. Fertilization is almost never done. Every 3-4 months, a slow-release fertilizer granule is placed in the water-filled bottle.
4. It is usually placed in a south-facing balcony with diffused light.
I feel that for this type of orchid, as long as a suitable method and environment are set up, the less you disturb it, the less you interfere, the better it grows. Plants will self-adapt, and they often die from over-attention.
The above is the specific introduction of the simple Oncidium cultivation method. I hope you will like it!
