Cultivation methods and precautions for potted orchids in summerOrchid lovers will know that in the hot and humid summer, with the temperature reaching over 35 degrees, many measures must be taken for the daily management of orchids to cool down and increase air humidity. You must be careful when growing flowers, otherwise it is easy for orchid potted plants to be damaged in the hot summer weather. When growing orchid potted plants in high temperatures in summer, you should pay attention to the following aspects of maintenance. First, strengthen ventilation and prevent heatstroke and cool downThe high temperature and humidity in summer are the biggest enemy of orchids, so be sure to pay attention to ventilation. Orchids outdoors can be moved to a well-ventilated, cool place. For indoor orchid pots, open windows for ventilation and cooling on balconies. We can also use physical cooling methods such as fans or water curtains. Good ventilation is the first thing to pay attention to when helping orchids survive the summer . Second, increase air humidityThe temperature in summer is dry and hot, and water evaporates quickly, so it is necessary to spray water around the orchid pot to cool it down. You can spray water on the ground during the day, and fill the basin or sink with water around the pot to increase the air humidity and lower the temperature . Watering should be done in the morning and evening. It is best not to spray too much water on the leaves to avoid water accumulation and rot. In summer, the orchid planting material should be kept moist and not dry to avoid withering. Third, apply thin fertilizer frequently to promote growthHigh temperatures in summer affect the growth of orchids. Early summer before the arrival of midsummer is the growth period of orchids, and it is best to use thin fertilizers and apply them frequently during this period . Giving orchids appropriate top dressing can promote their growth and make them grow stronger so that they can successfully survive the hot summer. Fourth, avoid heavy rain and prevent diseasesSummer is a hot and rainy season, so be sure to pay attention to orchids to prevent them from getting wet in the rain . Especially in areas with poor air quality, rain should be strictly avoided to prevent orchids from being infected with diseases. At the same time, we must take the initiative to prevent and control diseases, promptly remove dirt around orchid pots, and properly disinfect orchid stands and surrounding grounds to reduce the occurrence of bacteria and viruses. Fifth, shade and anti-corrosionWhen growing orchids in the summer, be sure to provide shade and prevent direct sunlight. Even if you keep them indoors, you should place them in a balcony that blocks strong light. If this is not possible, make a shade net. If it is exposed to the sun, it is easy to be ruined. In summer, the high temperature and improper watering can easily cause root rot. The most common is root rot, and it is more likely to rot in rainy seasons under outdoor conditions. Therefore, preservation is very important, especially for orchid potted plants that have just been repotted. It is recommended that every time you water the orchid, you should add a fungicide, such as methyl thiophanate, to dilute the water . |
