When growing orchids in autumn, avoid these 4 "risks" to prevent yellowing leaves and root rot, and let the fragrance fill the garden!

The first risk: buying fake flowers

Everyone may not be familiar with this, and many people directly exclaimed: Can you buy fake orchids? Yes! In fact, orchids are not just the ones we usually see. There are also many rare varieties of orchids. Some orchid lovers will buy some rarer and more expensive ones to cultivate.

Once the price is high, it is inevitable that some unscrupulous merchants will take advantage of the situation and use fake expensive orchids to defraud people of their money. So if you have chosen a certain type of flower to grow and the price is relatively high, it is best to pay close attention and not be cheated.

Second risk: pest risk

Compared with other plants, the more precious the orchid is, the more delicate it is and the more susceptible it is to diseases and pests. No matter what variety of orchid it is, as long as you grow orchids, there will be problems with diseases and pests. In the future growth process, the more serious the diseases and pests are, the greater the degree of damage to the orchid and the higher the amount of loss will be.

In order to effectively avoid diseases and pests, we must cultivate orchids scientifically and reasonably to prevent them from being invaded by insects.

The third risk: the risk of decay

In the daily cultivation process of orchids, we must not only prevent orchid diseases and pests, but also prevent orchid root rot. Many friends feel that the air humidity is not enough in autumn, or they have not changed the habit of watering more in summer. Excessive watering of orchids causes the orchid's moisture to fail to evaporate and slowly accumulate in the potting soil, gradually causing the orchid's roots to rot.

Although this phenomenon is often encountered, the problem is indeed difficult to deal with. It requires changing pots and soil, as well as pruning the roots, which is quite troublesome, so it is best for everyone to change their daily habits.

The fourth risk: pesticide risk

When orchids are infested with insects, many people will use pesticides to repel them. However, some friends do not do thorough homework and when spraying pesticides on orchids, they may spray too much, or spray in the wrong place, etc. Huahua would like to remind everyone that no matter what kind of pesticide you use on orchids, it is best to know the effects of the pesticide and the instructions for use.

If you find that something is wrong, stop using it immediately.

The above are the four risks that Huahua has summarized for everyone. I hope everyone can pay more attention to them in daily life, prevent their occurrence, and make your orchids bloom more beautifully!
