1、 When does it bloom
If you have raised it, you know it can bloom twice a year. Generally, the flowering time is from June to October. During this period, it will open twice, with an interval of about one month. The first flowering time is in early July, and then the second flowering time is in early August. In the middle of August, it is the best time for it to open. All this shows that its flowering time is divided into two periods p>
2、 Maintenance during flowering
1. Nutrients
When it blooms, that is, when the nutrient consumption is the fastest, so we must keep up with the nutrient and not lose it, otherwise the flower will fail early. When it blooms, apply more fertilizer to it, but make the fertilizer as thin as possible and the concentration should not be too high. As long as the frequency is diligent, it can grow very strong and bloom in time p>
2. Illumination
Among many orchid varieties, it likes sunshine best. Therefore, before flowering, we can let it bask in the sun as much as possible, and then wait until after flowering, do not go to shade. At this time, we should let it enjoy enough light, so as to make the color of the coming flowers more beautiful and lasting p>
3. Appropriate bud thinning
Before it blooms, it must grow a lot of flower buds. Some people think that the more flower buds, the more flowers will bloom in the future, so they haven't managed much. In fact, this is wrong. Sometimes, some of these flower buds grow very weak. If they are not removed in time, they will consume some nutrients, while other normal flower buds will not have enough nutrition, and the flowers will not look good at that time. Therefore, we must sparse them in time, so as to produce more beautiful flowers p>
4. Pay attention to diseases and pests
As we have said above, it blooms from June to October, which is the highest temperature, so it will be vulnerable to diseases and pests, resulting in short flower buds and even withering. Even the barely blooming flowers will be eaten by diseases and pests, seriously affecting the ornamental. Therefore, we must give it timely prevention of those diseases and insect pests during flowering to prevent them from being damaged by insects p>
