1、 Basin soil

Crab claw orchid has strict requirements for basin soil. It requires loose and fertile soil, good drainage and certain water retention capacity

2、 Moisture

Because the crab claw orchid is a cactus plant, it is said that it has the habit of water and humidity intolerance, but it is afraid of drought. In the process of breeding, water management should keep the basin soil moist, not too dry or too wet

3、 Illumination

Crab claw orchid requires scattered light. It is afraid of direct sunlight and is not resistant to excessive shade. If it is too dark, the branches will become thinner and grow thin

4、 Fertilization

During the breeding period of crab claw orchid, the management of fertilizer and water also needs to be careful. Generally speaking, it can be given a thin nitrogen fertilizer every ten days. We should master the principle of applying thin fertilizer frequently and prefer thin fertilizer to thick fertilizer. Otherwise, once concentrated fertilizer or raw fertilizer is applied, rotten roots and leaves will fall off

5、 Temperature

The temperature requirement of crab claw orchid in curing is generally below 30 degrees and above 6 degrees. In this environment, it can grow normally. Freezing injury will occur below 2 degrees, and high temperature above 30 degrees is also bad, so pay attention to temperature control during maintenance

6、 Precautions

It should be noted that the soil is loose and fertile, the water and fertilizer management should be fine, and it has strong phototropism. During the maintenance process, the angle of each pot rotation should not be too large, especially after the emergence of flower buds, the angle of each pot rotation should be small, and if the angle is too large, there will be bud falling
