This pot of tiger orchid, is from the flower market to pick up the Phnom Penh tiger orchid, there are many varieties, but still Phnom Penh is better, originally placed in the north window, the two years have also grown taller, it was placed in the living room, as a decoration.
In autumn, the new leaves, like withered yellow leaves, are densely spread all over this small flower pot. In autumn, the tiger pill orchid will rejuvenate and if it is well raised, it will not only grow vigorously, but also give birth to a large number of small cubs.
1. Controlled temperature
Based on its growth habits, it was determined that its optimal growth temperature was between 15-25°C. Therefore, the optimal temperature is 10 degrees, i.e. 25 degrees during the day and 15 degrees at night. This is good for the growth of Tiger Piran.
Therefore, in the fall, we want to give the tiger orchid a "move" to make it grow well and blow up a whole bunch of small seedlings. The rising temperature, humid air, and airflow can all stimulate the rapid growth of the tiger pill orchid, which can break out of the shell in minutes and burst out with amazing power.
2. Improve the temperature difference
In autumn, there is a large temperature difference between day and night, so the high temperature required for the growth of tiger piran is very important under natural conditions. That was in the wild, though. If you plant it in the living room, then you can open the window at night so that it can adapt to its desired temperature.
(1) Tiger Piran should choose a location close to the window to avoid direct sunlight, because it prefers autumn light, at least 6 hours a day, during which the leaves should be constantly turned to ensure that each leaf has sufficient light.
(2) When the sun sets, the temperature will slowly decrease, at this time, you can spray water around the tiger pill orchid to increase the temperature difference, if the temperature difference is not large, open the window to maintain the temperature of its growth at about 10 °C.
(3) In autumn, when the temperature gradually decreases, when it is lower than 15 degrees Celsius, you should pay attention to lighting during the day and cold protection at night, so that you can't and don't need to open the window, and the temperature difference is definitely above 10 degrees Celsius.
3. Increase nutrients
In autumn, in order for the tiger pill orchid to grow faster, in addition to raising the temperature and promoting photosynthesis, it is also necessary to provide sufficient nutrients. After all, a naturally nutrient-deficient plant like Tiger Piran, even if it has enough temperature and sufficient nutrients, may not be able to grow so quickly.
In addition to this, it is also necessary to pay attention to fertilization, in autumn, the bluegrass does not grow well and cannot be fertilized. The best fertilizer is "Hua Duoduo No. 1", which is not only suitable for tiger piran, but can also be used for other flowers, such as "Hua Duoduo 2", which has a flowering effect.
(1) Tiger pill orchid can inhibit dust to a certain extent, which is because the leaves of tiger pill orchid need to be wiped continuously to better carry out photosynthesis. Orchids on windowsills, in particular, need to be cleaned frequently.
(2) The chemical fertilizer "Hua Duoduo No. 1" is divided into two kinds, one is to dissolve "Hua Duoduo No. 1" in water, adjust it into 1000 times liquid, and spray it on the root system. The second way, much faster, is to use the leaves and let the leaves absorb nutrients, so as to complete photosynthesis. To use, you only need to use a piece of wet cotton, dip 1000 times of "Hua Duoduo No. 1", and evenly apply it to the leaves of the tiger tail orchid, so that it is easier to be absorbed by the skin, and the effect is much better.
(3) After watering, the roots of the tiger tail orchid can not be irrigated, and the potting soil should be dried before irrigation, which can accelerate the absorption of nutrients and avoid the damage of fertilizer.
4. Check the status
After these tasks are completed, all that remains is the control of the heat, and if nothing else, this orchid will re-germinate, but how many roots can grow depends on its own growth.
But there are also some people who say that their tiger orchids are very beautiful even though they have no children, what is the situation?
(1) Tiger orchid is likely to be buried in the ground, if buried too deep, after the tiger orchid breaks out of the shell, it will die from various reasons without waiting for germination. It will grow, but you don't know it, you can strip it of its topsoil, or replant it.
(2) There is also a possibility that the tiger pill orchid is not fertile at all, and it is now in a stage of "non-growth and non-growth", that is, it has had problems and has become a zombie seedling, so it is unable to have children. This may be related to the soil, the environment, the plant itself.
End:
In autumn, if you want to raise tiger piran and "pop cubs", you can't forget the "one action", which is the key to popping cubs. Even if it is the only tiger orchid, it can grow a small old seedling, but once it is not raised well, it will become bare by the end of autumn, of course, this is another "story".
