The temperature drops in October, do you move or not outdoor exposed orchids?
In fact, when the temperature drops in October, do orchids need to be moved indoors or not? actually depends on the variety, because the variety of orchids is different, and the ability to withstand cold is also different. Just like cymbidium and morsel , these orchids with larger leaves will have much lower cold resistance. When the temperature drops to about 5 degrees, you need to move it indoors for maintenance.
. For orchids with narrow leaves such as Chunlan and Cymbidium , the cold resistance will be stronger. When the temperature is around minus 5 to 8 degrees Celsius, it does not have much to do with it.
So is it to move or not to move or not? It also needs to be determined based on the variety, and more importantly, it is determined based on the orchid's cold resistance, and cannot be generalized.
is like Chunlan and Cymbidium. If you move indoors too early, it is easy to disappear. In fact, it is mainly because of the indoor temperature that causes the orchids and cymbidium to begin to germinate and grow, which will cause the orchid buds to begin to grow. However, the orchid's root system does not grow, so after the orchid buds expand, there will be insufficient nutrient supply in the later stage, resulting in the orchid's disappearance. So Chunlan and Huilan should not rush to move indoors.
How to raise molan and cymbidium after moving indoors?
1 More sunshine: Cymbidium and molans that are moved indoors in October can be kept in a place with more sunshine. Although cymbidium and molan do not like too strong sunlight, they need appropriate shade in summer.
By October, the sun is still very warm, which can be said to be very conducive to the growth of cymbidium and molan, so there is more sunshine required. However, the sunlight at noon is still a bit strong, so it is necessary to provide appropriate shade at noon. It is best to dry it in the morning and in the morning. mainly because there is an old saying in orchids, "I like the morning sun and fear the sunset."
2 Watering should be done appropriately: The roots of orchids belong to fleshy roots , which contains a lot of water. If watering too much, it is easy to cause root rot. For orchids moved indoors, watering needs to be watered in the morning to prevent the temperature from dropping at night, resulting in water accumulation in the flower pots and causing the orchid to rot.
However, there is an old saying in growing orchids, called "Dry roots, wet leaves", which means that if the soil is dry, it is conducive to the growth of orchid roots. If the soil is slightly moist, it will be beneficial to the growth of leaves. But watering too much is not conducive to growth.
Although orchids do not like too moist soil, orchids like moist air. After October, as the temperature drops due to strong winds, the air becomes dry. Therefore, when moving indoors orchids, you also need to spray water frequently on the leaves and around the flower pots. If the buds have grown, do not spray water on the buds. Just spray water around to prevent the buds from rotting.
3 Fertilization needs to be thin: The large-leaf orchids moved indoors need to be properly fertilized when they grow vigorously, so that the orchids can grow stronger, bloom more and more vividly.
fertilizes orchids, mainly using potassium dihydrogen phosphate or Huaduoduo No. 2, because both fertilizers contain phosphorus and potassium, which not only makes the orchids stronger, but also allows the orchids to grow buds earlier and then bloom.
10 fertilize the orchids. If the leaves of the orchid grow fatter, you only need to use potassium dihydrogen phosphate. , that is, fertilize orchids in the evening about 10 to 15 days. When applying fertilization, you need to apply thin fertilizer, that is, 0.1% potassium dihydrogen phosphate is used. The next morning, water the orchids again to prevent the orchids from becoming fat.
4 Do ventilation: Orchids like a good ventilated environment, especially orchids moved indoors. If the ventilation is not good, pests and diseases are prone to occur.
So the orchids that are moved indoors need to be opened to ventilate at noon. It is mainly because the temperature drops in the morning and evening, and people will feel very cold, and it is even more impossible to open the windows for ventilation.
Orchids that are not moved indoors, and when breeding, you also need to pay attention to bask in the sun properly and shade appropriately at noon. Also, reasonable watering and the use of potassium dihydrogen phosphate can also make the orchids grow buds earlier.
