The family has a flower friend of Junzi orchid, and the most anticipated thing in winter is that Junzi orchid can bloom as scheduled. Junzi orchid is a kind of green plant with beautiful flowers and leaves, the leaves are green and fat, neat like a sword, there is a gentleman's style, it is particularly pleasing to the eye, even so, everyone is looking forward to it to flower.
The flowers of Junzilan are full, bright and delicate, meaning auspicious, it is said that the flowering of Junzilan is a sign of "annunciation", symbolizing family harmony, and everything will go well in the coming year.
First of all, everyone must know that Junzilan will only flower after "adulthood", and Junzilan without adulthood will never flower, so don't have expectations.
How to judge the "adult age" of Junzilan? We can judge from the number of leaves, when the number of leaves reaches more than 6 pairs of age, there are conditions for flowering, as to whether it will flower, and maintenance has a lot to do with it.
Will your junzi orchid blossom this year? In fact, Junzi orchid blossoms, and the mother conceives the baby, there will be some external performance, if carefully observed, it can be found, this time in the maintenance must be more careful, it can smoothly pull out the flower arrow, bloom beautiful flowers.
I summarized the "small performance" of 2 Junzilan flowering, is to prepare the characteristics of flowering, as long as it meets 1, it means that your Junzilan may be ready to draw flower arrows, be sure to take good care of it.
Performance one, junzi orchid, which has been growing well, no longer grows new leaves
After entering the autumn, the gentlemen orchid that likes cool and afraid of heat begins to enter the vigorous growth period, properly maintained, the new leaves will be drilled out in the middle of the leaf core one by one, under normal circumstances, when a new leaf grows to about 6-8 cm, the next new leaf will emerge.
If the Junzi orchid, which has been growing well, has a relatively long period of time, and no new leaves grow in the middle of its scaly leaf sheath, if there is no problem with health, it is likely to be ready to draw arrows.
The long leaves of Junzi orchid are vegetative growth, while the flower arrow is reproductive growth, and these two cannot be carried out at the same time, so it will certainly not smoke flower arrows when it grows on long leaves; in the same way, if it is ready to smoke flower arrows, it will not grow new leaves.
Realization two, the false bulb becomes thicker
The false bulb of Junzi orchid is the lower part of the leaf, which is in contact with the soil. If this position becomes thicker and fatter, it is most likely to smoke arrows.
When Junzi orchid grows leaves, the false bulbs will basically not change anything. If you want to smoke the flower arrow, its flower arrow will now grow in the false bulb area for a period of time, this time you carefully observe, found that this part will gradually become thicker, in fact, it is quite obvious, and then wait for 10-15 days, the flower arrow will appear.
However, Junzi orchid is different from other flowers, it is from the flower arrow to the flower, this process is a very difficult process, if the maintenance is not proper, it is easy to clip the arrow situation, that is, the flower arrow can not be drawn, in the leaf center part of the flower, very ugly.
When it is found that Junzilan is ready to draw flower arrows and flowering performance, maintenance must keep up, in the light, watering, temperature, fertilization should be paid attention to, let the flower arrows slowly draw out, grow to a certain height and then flower, so that the plant type is also beautiful, the flowering is also beautiful.
Illumination: Junzi orchid is a green plant that likes light, whether in the growth period, or in the flowering period, it should be placed in a position with sufficient light, so that it can be fully photosynthetic, so that the leaves that grow out will be wide and thick, the color is bright, and it is also very helpful for flowering.
When placing Junzilan, we must pay attention to the placement position, let the leaf tip face the position of the light source (facing south), after 2 weeks, give it another turn direction, so that the leaf tip on the other side is facing the light source, which can effectively avoid the long crooked blade.
Watering: Junzi orchid is a drought-tolerant green plant, even if it is already in the critical time of drawing flowers and arrows, do not increase the frequency of watering. Its root system is typical of fleshy roots, drought-tolerant and afraid of standing water. In particular, the potted soil should be permeable and breathable, and it is difficult for ordinary nutrient soils to raise Junzilan, the loose and breathable is not enough, and the oxygen content in the soil is low, which is not conducive to the growth of the root system.
The high-quality Junzilan soil is made of rotted bark, rotted peanut shells, or rotted pine needle soil, and then mixed with some perlite, planted with carbendazim solution for half an hour, slightly dried into a slightly damp state, and then potted. If you are troublesome, you can also buy ready-made Junzilan growing medium to raise fat white roots.
Temperature Difference: You know what? It is more difficult for Junzilan to flower in the warm south, the main reason is that the temperature difference between day and night is not enough. Want to let Junzilan flower, the temperature difference between day and night should be about 10 degrees, that is, 10-15 degrees at night, 20-25 degrees during the day, this is because Junzilan makes organic matter in a warmer environment during the day, and stores and consumes these organic matter at low temperatures at night.
The northern heated building should also pay attention to the gentlemen orchid, do not keep it in a constant temperature environment for a long time, otherwise it will inhibit its flowering.
Fertilization: Flower growth and flowering need to consume a lot of nutrients, Junzi orchid is not unexpected, the elements consumed during the growth period are mainly nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium three elements; and the largest consumption during flowering is phosphorus and potassium.
If your Junzi orchid is not yet old and is a critical period for long leaves, then it is necessary to supplement nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium compound fertilizer to supplement nutrients and promote leaf growth. Many old flower farmers use organic fertilizer, if it is indoor maintenance, organic fertilizer will inevitably have odor, you can use microbial agents, regulate soil vitality while also increasing nutrients, promote leaf growth.
If Junzilan has reached adulthood, on the basis of ensuring light, ensuring light and temperature difference, we must supplement it with phosphorus and potassium fertilizer and prepare it for flowering at any time. The most used is Huaduoduo No. 2, blue powder, when used and water in accordance with the ratio of 1:1000 mixed, each time watering instead of water to water the pot soil can be.
