After entering the winter, it is necessary to "enrich and nourish" Junzilan 4 musts
Junzi orchid, also known as Fu Magnolia, is one of the indoor foliage plants, also known as sword-like orchid because of its leaf shape. The ornamental value of junzi orchid is high, but it is also relatively difficult to plant and maintain. After winter, because the indoor temperature decreases, the growth rate of junzi orchid will slow down, at this time we should carry out "rich nourishment" to ensure the ornamental effect of junzi orchid, the following 4 musts.
1. Control temperature and humidity
The suitable temperature of Junzilan is 15 °C ~ 25 °C, but in winter, the indoor temperature drops greatly, in order to maintain the growth rate of Junzilan , some insulation measures can be used, such as using plastic bags or transparent paper to accompany it, establish an artificial small environment, and maintain a relatively stable temperature. In addition, because the temperature is drier in winter, it is also necessary to strengthen ventilation and humidity management, we can set up a humidifier at home, or place the potting soil in a place with higher humidity.
2. Prevent over-pouring and drying
Junzi orchid is a moisture-loving and stain-tolerant plant, but it also has certain limits. In winter, the metabolic rate of monarch orchids decreases due to insufficient light and low temperatures, so watering needs to be controlled to prevent excessive moisturizing or excessive drying. Usually, watering needs to keep the soil slightly moist, but do not water too much, so as not to cause the soil to be too moist and lead to the growth of germs. Correspondingly, the concentration and quantity should also be controlled in terms of fertilization to avoid burns caused by excessive enthusiasm.
3. Proper pruning, training
The leaves of the orchid are usually wider, and for better viewing, proper pruning is required. In winter, if the leaves of the junzi orchid grow fast and are too long, we can prune appropriately to ensure the balance of the whole plant and promote secondary bud differentiation. In addition, in order to ensure the natural form of the orchid, it is often necessary to correct it and grow it into an aesthetically pleasing plant.
4. Pay attention to pest control
In the process of enriching Junzilan orchid, it is necessary to pay attention to pest control. Common pests and diseases include aphids, powdery mildew, striated blight, black root disease, etc. These pests and diseases will obviously affect the growth and ornamental effect of Junzi orchid, so we need to pay close attention to the development of Junzi orchid and take timely control measures. Commonly used control methods include low-concentration pest agents, copper acetate, sulfur fumigation, etc.
End section
After entering the winter, the process of enriching Junzilan is very important, if you can master the above four precautions, you can ensure that Junzilan survives the winter smoothly, and at the same time, you can better protect and play the ornamental effect of Junzilan .
