Raising Crab claw in autumn. No matter how busy you are, you have to do this, otherwise it will affect the blooming
is about to enter October. The Crab claw lanyard at home has resumed normal growth and has begun to sprout new buds. After a period of time, buds will grow on the top of the leaves.
However, many flower lovers' leaves are still soft, thin and thin, and are growing new leaves. This situation will definitely affect the growth of the flower buds at that time. So how can we make the plants grow vigorously and breed flower buds in large quantities?
Pick the new buds early and
Autumn is the peak season for crab claws. At this time, the plant resumes normal growth and begins to grow new buds on the top of the leaves. In fact, the new leaves that grow at this time cannot grow buds at that time, and it will consume a lot of nutrients, making other bottom leaves thin.
Generally, after October, these newly grown leaves must be removed from them for 2 to 3 sections, so that the plant will grow the bottom leaves to store nutrients, and soon the leaves below will become full and thick, laying a solid foundation for the later breeding of buds.
If the leaves are picked too early, many will continue to grow new buds. When new buds grow, pick the leaves again. In short, at this time, you cannot let them grow new buds until they know that buds form at the top of the leaves.
Abstract moisture should be sufficient
If the leaves of the crab claws at home are still soft and the plant is listless, it means that it has not fully recovered. At this time, the weather has become cooler. You can increase watering appropriately and you can no longer make the pot soil too dry, otherwise the leaves will grow thin and have no nutrients, which will affect the formation of flower buds.
Raising crab claws does not require watering too frequently. In fact, just follow the principle of "dry and wet". Every time you water it, observe the pot soil first. The surface soil is also dry, and then water the pot soil at one time. Remember not to water frequently to avoid the pot soil being moistened for a long time and causing root rot.
Ensure sufficient nutrients
When the weather is hot, the plant enters a dormant state and cannot fertilize it all summer, otherwise it will easily cause fertilizer damage. After autumn, as the weather cools down, the plants begin to resume normal growth. At this time, you can also fertilize it and supplement nutrients.
In early autumn, the plant has just resumed normal growth, so thin fertilizer should be applied and thin fertilizer water should be poured every half a month to make the leaves grow strong and full, laying a solid foundation for the cultivation of buds later.
When entering October, when maintaining crab claw orchids, you must start to apply nitrogen fertilizer , and supplement it with fertilizers that promote the blooming of buds, that is, fertilizers for phosphorus and potassium. You can apply potassium dihydrogen phosphate once a week, dilute it at a ratio of 1:1000, and water it into the flower pot, which can encourage the plant to grow buds as soon as possible.
See the sun more often
In different seasons, the demand for light of Crab Claws is different. For example, in summer, it is very afraid of strong light exposure, and it is easy to wither the leaves in the sun. However, after October, if you don’t let it see the sun, the plant will grow only leaves and affect the growth of the buds.
Now, the potted plants of Crab Claw Orchid should be moved out and placed in a place where the sun can shine, so that it can see the sun more, increase its photosynthesis , and can better promote the plant to nurture buds. If the crab claw orchids raised at home continue to grow new sprouts, they should start picking new leaves, and then supplement phosphorus potassium fertilizer and increase light, so that buds can grow on the leaves soon.
