Material air permeability: air permeability flower soil should be used for breeding Cymbidium. Fertilizer content: fertilizer should be applied in time, with the emphasis on P and K fertilizer. Less turning basin: it's better not to turn basin after planting. Suitable for deep planting: large basin and deep planting shall be selected for planting. See more sun: it is suitable for more sun, except in summer, do not need shade. Appropriate ventilation: the growth conditions for ventilation.

according to the characteristics of Cymbidium, the cultivation methods can be roughly summarized into six aspects: material ventilation, including fertilizer, less turning basin, suitable for deep species, more yang, suitable for ventilation.

Material air permeability

In order to raise the root of Cymbidium, its planting material is the key point. Now, most of Cymbidium cultivation is in the way of granular planting material, and the problem of air permeability and water drainage can be solved basically. However, for Cymbidium, it is more important to emphasize that the planting material for the regeneration of Cymbidium is coarser than that of other Cymbidium species. Please follow the steps below to make the formula:

(1) Xiantu 60%, zhijinshi 20%, huoshaotu (Maifanshi can also be used to protect and promote the art of art grass) 10%, snakewood (willow bark) 10%;

(2) 80% of LAN Zhiyou's planting materials and 20% of Xiantu's.

Fat content

The growth of Cymbidium pseudobulb is not obvious. The growth of Cymbidium is basically dependent on the absorption of nutrients in the plant material and the characteristics of its thick root and tall grass. It is better to plant Cymbidium than other Cymbidium species. The leaves of Cymbidium are firm, thick and hard, so the application of P and K should be emphasized in the process of fertilization.

Less turnover Basin

It's better not to turn the basin after the middle and lower parts of Cymbidium. The leaves of Cymbidium are sometimes pulled out two or three years later, which shows that the growth cycle of Cymbidium is relatively long. It often takes several years or even up to 4-5 years for Cymbidium to grow in pots, roots, seedlings, and flowers. Turning the pots less is to strengthen and strengthen Cymbidium in a stable growth environment. It can be proved by time that Cymbidium can be strengthened after taking the pot again, and the seedling rate is considerable in two or three years after strengthening.

Culturing Cymbidium hybridum with less pot turning

Suitable species

The false bulb of Cymbidium is not obvious, the root of Cymbidium is thick and long, suitable for deep planting and large pot. The pseudobulb of Cymbidium is not obvious. In order to strengthen and strengthen the cymbidium seedlings, we should choose a larger pot to meet the growth of Cymbidium root.

Seeing more Yang

According to the theory that the leaf vein of Cymbidium is transparent and can accept the short-time strong light, Cymbidium should see more sunlight. In the four seasons of the year, only in summer, according to the weather conditions, can shade properly. In the other three seasons, the sun can be freely accepted. However, if there is a burning point or the old grass is falling fast, it means that the light is super strong, so we need to increase the shade.

Suitable ventilation

In view of the fact that most of Cymbidium is native to mountains with high altitude, it is objectively required to have better ventilation and a certain theory of temperature difference. It is better to pay more attention to the importance of ventilation than other Cymbidium species. The leaves of Cymbidium are closely bound, leathery, firm and fleshy, with relatively low requirements for air humidity, drought resistance and flood resistance. It is more suitable for balcony cultivation. In spring, summer and autumn, balcony windows should be fully opened to increase the air replacement capacity.
