How to raise hanging orchid seedlings
As the easiest indoor green plant for novice flower lovers, spider orchid seedlings are popular for their elegant hanging shape. But in order for these green new lives to grow rapidly and thrive, we need to master a scientific maintenance system. This paper will systematically analyze the key factors affecting the growth of spider plants from environmental regulation to nutritional management. The three elements of environmental control accurately control the golden temperature range of 20-24℃ can activate the growth enzyme activity of spider plants, and the temperature difference between day and night is recommended to be kept at 3-5℃. A timed spray cooling system is used in summer, and an intelligent temperature-controlled heating mat is used in winter to ensure that the temperature is always within the growth safety line (10-30℃). Dynamic adjustment of light uses a 50% sunshade net to filter strong light during seedling stage, and gradually increases to 2000Lux scattered light during maturity stage. Rotate the flowerpot 45 degrees every two weeks and cooperate with the smart fill light to achieve all-round lighting, which can increase the photosynthetic efficiency by 30%. Humidity gradient management is monitored by a hygrometer to maintain air humidity at 60%-70%. A combined moisturizing method of bottom suction basin + surface volcanic stone covering is used, combined with morning and evening leaf micro-spraying to form a three-dimensional humid environment. Nutritional supply dual-engine substrate formula upgrade according to the ratio of peat soil, perlite, and decomposed pine needles of 3:2:1, and add 5% bone meal as base fertilizer. When changing pots every spring, 1/3 of the core soil is reserved, and the new soil is disinfected at high temperature. Fertilization cycle optimization growth period using "3+1" fertilization method: every 3 weeks irrigation diluted 1000 times Huaduo 10, add a month decomposed rice washing water. Potassium dihydrogen phosphate foliar fertilizer was used in winter dormancy period. Special stage management of new seedlings to maintain the substrate semi-dry seedling state, appear after walking stem increase the proportion of phosphorus and potassium. Root irrigation with aspirin solution (1 tablet/500ml) every quarter can enhance stress resistance. Through systematic maintenance, ordinary spider seedlings can form a complete ornamental plant type within 6 months.
