What should be done after the蝴蝶兰 (phalaenopsis orchid) flowers fade? How to deal with the蝴蝶兰 after its blossoms wither?

How to deal with the withering of Phalaenopsis orchidsFor netizens to explain the introduction of orchid plants, how to deal with the withering of Phalaenopsis orchids. Next, the editor will provide you with detailed answers.Many orchid enthusiasts do not know what to do when Phalaenopsis orchids wither, and some will discard the orchids after they have withered, thinking that they cannot survive in the north. In fact, the management of Phalaenopsis orchids after they wither is simple and does not require much time and effort. Generally, in the north, where there is heating, Phalaenopsis orchids can bloom twice in one spring.1. If your Phalaenopsis orchid was purchased or given by friends around the Spring Festival and was flowering at the time of purchase, there will be no flowers left by now (around the end of March). If you want it to continue flowering, you can choose to keep the flower stem, remove it from the pot to check the root situation, and cut off any rotten or dry roots in time. Check if the sphagnum moss is rotting, mildewed, or in any other poor condition, and consider whether it needs to be replaced. Still use a transparent pot to plant, water normally, keep it moist, and if the humidity at home is higher, it's even better (it's fine if it's not), and if you have liquid fertilizer for orchids, add some, it's fine if you don't. If the plant is very strong, it will quickly grow new flower buds at the front of the original flower stem. If the plant is weak after the flowers wither and consumes more, normal maintenance should continue until May, when a lateral stem will grow on the original flower stem and produce flower buds, continuing to bloom until the end of June (this flowering period will be shorter due to the gradually hot weather). After the flowers wither, cut off the flower stem and maintain it normally.2. If it is cultivated at home, flower stems and flower buds usually start to grow around December of the previous year (in a house with heating), and they generally bloom from the end of February to early March, with the flowering period lasting until the end of May. Then, the method is the same as (1). If you want to see another flower, keep the flower stem and maintain it normally, and soon a lateral stem will grow on the flower stem, produce flower buds, and bloom.3. Whether purchased or cultivated at home, if you don't want it to continue flowering after the first bloom (this can preserve the plant's energy), cut off the flower stem in time, still check the roots and planting material, then maintain it normally, and by the end of the year, new stems will naturally sprout, and flower buds will appear frequently.4. Many people think that it is difficult to care for Phalaenopsis orchids because they believe they need a warm and humid environment, which is indeed the case. Having such an environment is naturally fortunate for Phalaenopsis orchids. However, Phalaenopsis orchids are very tough and can be easily cared for in the north even without such conditions. You can pay attention to the following points:(1) First, you need to survive the summer. If possible, place it in a bright but not directly sunny location; reduce water supply (even though the temperature is high in summer, excessive water can easily cause root rot and plant death); if you feel you don't know how to fertilize (apply thin fertilizer frequently, preferably with liquid orchid fertilizer), you can always use clean water for maintenance, especially in summer, try not to fertilize or fertilize less; after surviving the summer, check the roots and planting material again to ensure the basic elements for normal plant growth;(2) Autumn management is an important factor affecting the flowering of Phalaenopsis orchids. In autumn, apply thin fertilizer frequently to make the plant strong, and at this time, you can increase the light appropriately. The climate in the north has temperature differences between morning and evening in autumn, which is exactly what prompts Phalaenopsis orchids to produce flower buds. Autumn is dry, so maintain proper moisture. If possible, use the method of spraying water to increase air humidity (it's fine if you don't spray).(3) Normally, by the end of December, new flower stems should grow and slowly produce flower buds. When maintaining, do not let the wind blow directly on the flower buds, and it's best to stop fertilizing and control water to prevent improper fertilization and water application from causing bud drop. If the room temperature is too high due to heating, you can increase spraying to maintain humidity (it's fine if you don't spray).(4) Usually pay attention to the growth of the roots. Vigorous roots are the basic elements to maintain plant growth. Green, strong, and firm root color, with red root tips, show strong vitality. If you find roots escaping, it means there is a problem with the planting material or maintenance, which needs to be adjusted; if roots turn black and rot, it means too much water, and if some roots have symptoms of drying, it means excessive lack of water. In a normal state, the leaves are bright, glossy, thick, and firm, indicating good growth, and new buds will continue to grow.The above is the specific content on how to deal with the withering of Phalaenopsis orchids, and copying is prohibited without permission!
