Cultivation methods and precautions of yellow horn orchid

Cultivation methods and precautions of yellow horn orchid

1. Breeding methods

1. Pot soil selection

If it is a domesticated yellow horn orchid, when choosing the potting soil, try to choose one that is loose and breathable, and it is best if it contains rich humus. Then choose a clay pot, purple clay pot or a plastic pot with many small holes at the bottom with good ventilation, put the soil in it, and the potting soil is ready.

2. Change the pot at the right time

When repotting, we need to choose the correct pot size based on its crown and age so that it can grow vigorously. When repotting, it is usually best to wait until the soil in the pot is slightly dry. First, slowly turn the pot upside down, hold the pot with one hand, and hold the plant with the other hand, then take it out and put it in the new pot.

3. Suitable breeding location

In March and April every year, we can move it outdoors to receive sunlight. When the temperature is high in summer, it is appropriate to build a shed to provide shade so that it can receive the morning sun while avoiding the afternoon sun to prevent sunburn.

4. Watering

It is very afraid of moisture and not very resistant to drought, so it should be watered in moderation. Each time you water, you should water it thoroughly, just keep the soil in the pot moist, and never water it every day. In addition, after each rain, drain the accumulated water in the pot in time to prevent root rot.

5. Suitable temperature

It is very afraid of cold, so if you are not growing in the south, you should move it indoors as much as possible in winter, and the temperature should be kept at least above 5 degrees. If it is hot in summer, you should cool it down in time so that it can grow normally.

6. Suitable lighting

It loves sunlight very much. In summer, we can put it in a shade shed, open the curtains every morning, let it receive the sun before 9 o'clock, and then cover the curtains. If you move it indoors, place it in a sunny spot.

2. Precautions

When raising it, we will always encounter some diseases and pests, so we should try to ventilate it more, control the amount of watering, and loosen the soil appropriately to prevent diseases. If insect pests occur accidentally, you should spray them with pesticides in time to suppress the pests as soon as possible.
