Orchid grass, also known as orchids, has soft and green leaves, white and delicate flowers, and fresh and long-lasting fragrance, giving people a sense of elegance and nobility, and has high ornamental value. When cultivating orchids, it is necessary to use the correct cultivation methods, especially focusing on soil management, lighting, and fertilization, and it is also necessary to know the precautions. Here is a detailed introduction.
I. Cultivation Methods
1. Soil and Pot
Orchid grass prefers loose and fertile soil, and also needs to have good drainage and breathability. When choosing a pot, it is necessary to pay attention to whether there are small holes for drainage. The peat soil, garden soil, and moss can be mixed in a certain proportion.
2. Lighting
Orchid grass likes a growth environment with sufficient light but avoids direct sunlight. It should be cultivated in a place with plenty of scattered light. In the hot summer, the sunlight is too strong and needs timely shading. In autumn, winter, and spring, the light is weak, and it should be ensured to have 5 hours of sunlight every day.
3. Fertilization
Orchid grass enjoys fertilizer and requires a certain amount of nutrients. During the growing period, the plant consumes a lot and needs timely nutrient supplementation. During cultivation, it is necessary to ensure the supply of fertilizer. When fertilizing, the fertilizer should not be too concentrated and should be applied frequently with a thin solution, such as diluted liquid fertilizer.
II. Precautions
When cultivating orchids, it is necessary to prune regularly, promptly cutting off the withered and diseased leaves of the plant to avoid nutrient consumption, which is beneficial to the growth of the plant. In winter, it is cold, so pay attention to keeping warm. The plant can be moved to a plastic greenhouse to prevent freezing.
