How hot it is to water the orchid

Water is the source of life for orchids and is the root of orchid growth. Watering orchids is the most important part of orchid cultivation and management. The ancients said: "A little blue-green breeding, watering three years of work." This statement is quite reasonable. It shows that watering orchids is a deep knowledge and it needs to be mastered through long-term practice and exploration. The accumulation of previous experience and the exploration of modern science provide us with a short cut. Their knowledge of the problem of watering orchids is very worthwhile for us to learn, think, and study.

First, water is the source of life for orchids

First, water is an important component of the protoplasm of orchid plants. The water content of the original strain of orchids is generally above 80%. If the water content is reduced, life activities will be affected. If the protoplasm loses too much water, it will cause destruction of the protoplasm and cause the plant to die.

Second, water is the raw material for the metabolism of orchid plants. The assimilation and dissimilation of orchid plants requires the participation of water molecules, such as photosynthesis, respiration and hydrolysis.

Again, water is the medium for the metabolism of orchid plants. The nutrients in the cultivation matrix can only be absorbed by the orchid roots if they are soluble in water, and various metabolites must also be transported with water to all parts of the orchid plant.

Fourth, water can keep the orchid plant in its proper shape. Only a large amount of water is contained in the blue strain cells, so that the cells can be expanded and the plants stand upright, which is convenient for receiving light and gas exchange. The blue strain will wilt if it loses water.

Fifth, water regulates the body temperature of orchid plants. Water has a high heat of vaporization and specific heat, and has a higher thermal conductivity, is conducive to maintain the body temperature and emit heat, orchid watering, one of the important role is to adjust the body temperature of orchid plants.

In short, water is the source of life for orchids and is the basis for the growth of orchids. Properly meeting the needs of blue plants for water is the most important condition for the growth of orchids.

Second, two ways to supply water to orchids

There are two ways to supply the water needed by the orchid plant: one is to absorb the moisture in the plant material through the root and transport it to the whole plant through the vascular; the second is to rely on the blue leaf to absorb the water in the air to provide the metabolism of the orchid plant. Knowing this truth, you will know how to supply water to orchids.

Third, to blue watering method

The method of supplying water to the root of orchid plant is as follows: irrigation, sprinkle (leaching), and soaking. "Irrigation" is the use of a kettle to inject water along the edge of the basin. The advantage of this method is that water will not be poured into the heart of the leaf. The disadvantage is that the watering speed is slow and it is difficult to saturate. "Sprinkling" means watering with a watering can or a shower, spraying the entire blue environment, letting the water seep from the soil surface to the blue root, and moistening the blue pot. The advantage of this method is that the water can be poured through the entire blue pot. The disadvantage is that the water is easy. Splashing into the heart of the leaf, use it carefully, otherwise it will be bad. "Baptism" means immersing three-quarters of the blue pots in the water together with the planting material. The advantage is that the water is permeable. The disadvantage is that it is easy to spread bacteria, and it takes time and labor. Raising blue masters often mix these three methods, the effect is very good.

There are two methods for supplying water to Lanyin: spraying and humidifying. "Spray" is to use a sprayer to spray a fine mist, directly scattered on the blue leaves, so that blue leaves through the pores into the body. "Humidification" is to increase the humidity of the air and let it absorb. There are also several ways to humidify: First, use a humidifier to increase fog, increase the space humidity; second, increase the surface of the water, set up more basins under the blue shelf, rely on the evaporation of water to increase the space humidity, and third, artificially simulate rainfall. Splash water mist, increase air humidity; In addition there are also oxygen pump to help discharge water vapor inside the basin and so on.

IV. Water quality for watering orchid plants

Wild orchids grow by rain, so the water used to cultivate orchids should be natural and pure. It should be clean and slightly acidic (ρ η is about 5.5). Usually, rainwater is preferred, river water is excellent, tap water is second, well water is not. use. "Rainwater" has many and complete fertilizer components, of which spring rain is particularly good, thunderstorms are preferred, autumn rain is second, artificial rain is used, and acid rain is harmful. “River and Tangshui” is a collection of rainwater, which is good for orchids, but river water contaminated with industrial waste water is not available; “tap water” cannot be used if it is taken from the ground. If it is taken from the river, its essence is still rainwater, but After the waterworks are processed, there are disinfection and clear preparations, which are harmful to orchids and cannot be directly applied. There are two solutions: First, use several cylinders to fill with tap water, open air, store for several days, and turn them around; Put a small amount of peels such as orange peel, apple peel, etc., store them for a day or two, which is effective in changing the quality of tap water. "Well water" belongs to groundwater. First, the temperature is low, sudden watering is unfavorable to the growth of orchids, and the second is alkaline. Well water contains more calcium and magnesium salts, and frequent watering is harmful to orchids.

Fifth, the timing of watering orchid plants

Lan's “his wet and damp-weak, hi dry and chilly” is a scientific saying. "Wet", "Run", "Dry", and "Dry" are different in degree, wet and moist, "wet" is too much water, will make Langen suffocate and rot to death; dry and dry, " "Dry" is an over-watery condition that causes blue plants to wilt, grow frustrated, and even dry to death; while "dry" and "run" are moderately watery, it is a favorite condition for orchid growth. To understand the key issues of "dryness" and "runness" must be carefully observed and experienced in practice. Gradually accumulating experience can only be truly grasped. There is no quick-fire approach and no "three-year work" is required. In general, when the potted plant material is dry and not dry, the pelvic floor hole is moist and not wet, which is the best time to water the orchid plant. It is not necessary to wait until the basin soil is completely dried and then poured, otherwise it will have an adverse effect on the growth and development of orchids.

Sixth, watering orchids should be based on natural factors

Watering of blue plants depends on various natural factors such as humidity, temperature, light, wind force, season, and weather that affect the transpiration of blue plants, so that different water management measures can be made.

First of all, it depends on the humidity. If the humidity in the air is low and the transpiration is strong, it is necessary to water more; on the other hand, if the humidity is high or even saturated in the air, the transpiration is almost stopped, and less water or even watering is required.

Second, it depends on temperature. The high temperature and transpiration accelerates, the water demand is large, and the number of watering increases accordingly. On the contrary, at the end of the temperature, the water molecules move slowly, the spreading force is weak, and the water requirement is small.

Again, look at the light. Strong light transpiration accelerates, accelerates the diffusion of water molecules and requires more water; on the contrary, it requires less water, so the light is different, the degree of shading is different, and the management of water is also different. It is more poured by Yang and less poured by Yang.

Fourth, it depends on the wind power. Strong winds evaporate quickly; weak winds evaporate slowly; dry southwesterly winds will increase evaporation, whereas wet southeast winds will cause transpiration to weaken; winds in the bays tend to be more evaporating, and winds are less affected by winds. The water in the orchids evaporates slowly.

Fifth, depending on the season, the temperature, humidity, and illumination of the season are all different. The transpiration of the orchid plant varies greatly. The hot and dry summer season is more than watered; in the rainy season, there is little or no pouring; cold and cold winters do not pour; lower temperatures are less poured in the early spring; mild spring climates have more germinating periods;

Sixth, depending on the weather, weather in the natural world is volatile, with different weather, light, temperature, and humidity. The transpiration of orchids varies widely. The basic approach is: sunny days, more pouring, cloudy, less pouring, it will not rain more rain, rain (snow) days without pouring.

Based on this, it is difficult to have an accurate and unified management method for watering orchid plants. The so-called “watering for a few days” is a lack of scientific basis.

Seventh, watering orchids should be based on orchids

To water orchids, the general principle is "do not do not pour, pouring will be drenched." However, in the daily management, the situation is complicated and it must be analyzed and treated according to the specific situation of orchids.

First of all, according to the growing season of orchids. Orchids should be watered during the growing season or the bud stage. Dormant period should be less or no watering. Germination period should be poured more. After germination, less watering can be done. When flower buds appear, they should be poured more. Flowering period should be less to extend flowering period. Stop pouring for a few days and allow it to sleep and then pour.

Second, according to the growth of orchids. The orchids grow stronger and more poured. Poor growth is less. The diseased plants do not pour. The orchids that need to be rescued have little or no irrigation. The plants in the pots are more poured and less poured.

Again, it depends on the moisturizing condition of the cultivation substrate. Substrates with fine matrix and strong water-holding capacity have slow water consumption (such as mountain wood chips, etc.) and need to reduce the number of watering; on the contrary, the coarser matrix has weak water-holding capacity (such as immortal earth), and the number of times of watering needs to be increased.

Fourth, it depends on the texture and size of the pots. The gas-permeable pots should be poured more, the zisha pots and plastic pots with poor air permeability should be less poured, the small pots should be easy to dry, the pots should be difficult to dry, and the number of waterings should be different.

In general, the watering of orchids should be treated in a concrete and concrete manner, and it should not be simplistic and simplistic.

VIII. Time for Watering Orchid Plants

Watering orchid plants also has certain scientificity in time. In general, it is better to water in the morning. Generally speaking, when the spring and summer autumn orchids are outdoors, watering in the morning is appropriate: First, after overnight cooling, the temperature of the planting material in the basin in the morning is low, and watering will not hurt the seedlings. Second, it is drenched in the morning. Turning to the evening, there is no water in the empty basin at night, the air circulation in the basin is conducive to Langen breathing and circulation, which is conducive to the growth of orchids. The third is that if watering in the evening, the evaporation of water at night is slow, and it is easy to cause waterlogging. In the daytime, when the transpiration is fast, the pot has been turned, resulting in a situation in which the water in the basin must be dry and the water in the basin must be dry. Fourth, the temperature is still high in the evening when the temperature in the blue water is suddenly high, sudden cooling with cold water will affect the water absorption in the roots and interfere with the physiological balance. The fifth is the nighttime temperature at the end, the blue cell activity will be weak, too much water will cause the disease to multiply, and it will breed snails. , oh. When winter and early spring orchids are indoors, the time for watering is appropriately delayed, and it is better to water at around 9:00 or noon after the temperature rises in the morning.

Regarding the timing of watering, the general principle of grasping is: the orchid is best for watering in the morning, when the temperature is high, it is poured earlier, and when the temperature is low, it is poured later.

Nine, to the amount of watering orchid plant

“Pour it with water” is a measure of how much the orchid is watered. What is "drenched"? The standard of “drenching” is to not only allow water to flow out of the bottom of the basin, but also to soak all the plant material in the basin. The water is often poured once. Although the water flows out from the bottom hole, it still does not reach the “permeability” standard. In order to make the plant pots soaked in the pot, it can be poured several times or watered by dipping method. For dry pellets Non-dip pots cannot be used, but do not use them continuously. Use a certain interval to allow the orchids to breathe. In addition, in the winter and early spring, the amount of water should not be too large.

Ten, pay attention to the blue watering plant

There are many things to note when watering orchids:

First of all, pay attention to the water temperature. Do not use cold water to water in the winter, the water temperature should be similar to the room temperature, 8-10c is appropriate. Do not use hot water in the summer, such as water storage towers, water temperature and high damage to the orchids, orchids, water temperature can not exceed 25-28c, can not be used to irrigate with cold water, so as not to hurt the blue plant.

Second, pay attention to humidity. If the air humidity is too high, when it reaches 90--100 degrees, it must not be watered or sprayed. The humidity in the day should be 70-90. If the humidity is too high, it will weaken the effect of water absorption in the roots, affect the amount of rooting, and cause the orchid plant to lose its driving force.

Again, pay attention to protecting sprouts. When the new shoots break open, it is advisable to carry out watering the roots. Sprinkle water and spray water as little as possible. Otherwise, water irrigation leaves the heart to cause water rot and cause losses.

Fourth, pay attention to not pouring half a drop of water. Some people mistakenly believe that orchids can't be watered, so they don't dare to water, often pouring half a piece of water. The pots are wet and dry for a long time, causing the roots to dry out due to lack of water.

Fifth, pay attention to less water. Water towers store water. The standing time is too long. Water molecules form chains. The longer it is, the more difficult it is to disassemble, and it is difficult to participate in metabolic activities, which is unfavorable for absorption by orchids.

Sixth, pay attention to pouring "refreshing water." After fertilization in the evening, the blue strain absorbs most of the nutrients through one night's absorption. At this time, the most water is needed, just like people want to drink tea after a meal. Therefore, it is necessary to pour “refreshing water” the next morning. Its role is two: First, wash off the leaves on the stained fertilizer; Second, wash the pot of residual fertilizer to prevent fertilizer.

Seventh, pay attention to watering not too hard. Orchids are very tolerant of water, and they are more drought-tolerant plants. Doing a little bit has little effect. On the other hand, if it is wet, it will not work. If water accumulates for 24 hours, it will cause suffocation. In daily cultivation, the vast majority of people are lovelantos, and watering is too hard, causing the roots to rot and the plants to die.

Eighth, pay attention to "acid rain." If rainwater is used, there are two kinds of rainwater that cannot be used. First, the acid rainwater cannot be used to pour blue. The so-called "acid rain" is sulphur, fluoride, and other acidic substances suspended in the air, and falls with rainfall to form "acid rain". This water must not be used to irrigate orchids; the second is artificial rainfall, and rain bullets contain water. Chemicals, these substances are dissolved in rainwater. The use of blue orchids will also corrode orchid roots.

Ninth, pay attention not to spray water arbitrarily. "Water spray" is necessary, in addition to supplementing water, but also to keep the blue leaves fresh, is conducive to blue leaf breathing and photosynthesis, but it can not spray: strong sunlight can not spray; high temperature weather can not spray; When there is no wind and hardship, little spray is required; water with impurities cannot be sprayed;
