Orchid pruning timeThere is no fixed time for pruning orchids. As long as you see too many leaves or they are yellowing or have diseases or insect pests, you can prune them in time. When you see a lot of flower buds growing, you can prune the flower buds. The specific time is in early summer. After pruning, the orchids can grow more branches and produce more flower buds. How to prune orchids1. Trim the leaves The branches and leaves of orchids need to be pruned during their growth period. When the leaves grow too densely, some weak and old leaves should be thinned out to maintain a good ventilation environment. At the same time, orchid leaves are prone to yellowing and becoming sick, so the diseased leaves should be cut off in time to prevent viral infection and prevent the entire orchid from losing its health. 2. Prune flower buds When too many flower buds grow on an orchid, they should be cut off, leaving only about two buds. This can reduce nutrient consumption. The plant itself has insufficient nutrient supply, and if nutrients are lost, it will affect the orchid's growth next year. 3. Trim the flower stems After the orchid blooms, if you do not want to keep seeds, you can cut off the flower stems. Generally, when cutting the flower stems, you should choose a position about 3 cm away from the flowerpot. After cutting them off, be careful not to let the wound get wet. Wait until the remaining flower stems begin to wither, and then cut them all off. |
