1、 Curing method

1. Temperature: Bletilla striata is suitable for growing in a warm environment. Under normal circumstances, the temperature suitable for its growth is about 20 degrees, and its cold resistance is very poor. Therefore, it is not recommended to breed outdoors in winter. The ambient temperature must be kept above 5 degrees. If it is too low, it is easy to frostbite the stems of the plant, so it can not grow better in the coming year. Pay attention to the high temperature in summer

2. Watering: the normal growth of Bletilla striata needs to maintain sufficient water, and the soil must be kept wet. If the soil is not wet enough, the plant will not grow well, but there can be no ponding. Drainage needs to be done well in rainy seasons. However, watering should be done frequently, and watering can not wait until the soil is completely dry, which will make the plant dehydrated

3. Light: Bletilla striata has a certain shade resistance, but it is not suitable for long-term exposure to dark environment. It needs to receive warm sunshine. It needs to receive at least six hours of light every day, so as to ensure normal flowering and full fruit. However, in summer, the exposure of strong light should be reduced as much as possible

4. Fertilization: for the normal growth of Bletilla striata, some thin liquid fertilizer can be applied, almost once every half a month. It is not recommended to apply too much fertilizer each time, just let it absorb normally, which is determined according to the specific growth status of the plant

2、 Breeding skills

1. Propagation: stem block is its main propagation mode. Generally, it is necessary to select robust plants, and then dig out the stem block of the mother plant and cut it into some small pieces. Each piece must have buds on it, and then pay attention to expose the buds when planting, so as to ensure normal rooting

2. Pruning: the growth speed of Bletilla striata is relatively fast, so pruning is indispensable. It is necessary to cut off some branches and leaves that have no ornamental value to reduce the loss of nutrients. Moreover, annual plants should pay more attention to pruning and cut off some crazy side branches

3、 Diagnosis and treatment problems

1. Disease: root rot usually occurs when the ventilation does not meet the conditions, so pay attention to the spacing during planting, and then spray wettable powder to control it

2. Insect pests: the ground tiger may bite its tubers and can be eliminated with trichlorfon solution

4、 Other issues

1. Toxicity: there is no poison, and the effect of beauty is still very strong, so you can breed safely

2. Whether it can be raised at home: Yes, but in order to ensure normal ventilation, you can open the window during the breeding process
