Daily care for orchids in summer

1. Pay attention to shade

Orchids are afraid of strong light, and the summer sunlight is not suitable for their growth, especially between 11 am and 5 pm, so shade must be provided. If you build a sunshade net, it is recommended to build several layers, which can better block strong light and reduce the temperature to a certain extent.

2. Watering method

When watering in summer, you must choose a good time first. It cannot be done at noon. It is recommended to do it in the morning or after 7 pm. The water used can be river water, rain water or tap water after drying. It is best not to use water from a deep well. If you water the leaves, you need proper ventilation.

3. Temperature control

When breeding in the summer, we will encounter the problem of high temperatures, so we must pay attention to controlling the temperature. You can spray more water or turn on the air conditioner to lower the temperature, but it is best not to place the potted plants in a drafty environment. Of course, don't let it be blown directly by an electric fan, and keep it away from household appliances.

4. Disease and Pest Control

Because the climate in summer is relatively hot and humid, it is easy to be attacked by pests and diseases, so measures should be taken to prevent them. You can spray some medicines to prevent diseases and insect pests, such as carbendazim, every month.
