Preparation before putting on the basin

Whether it's the first time to put the pot on or plan to change the pot, it should be in March, April or around October, because the temperature is more suitable for growth at this time, and even changing the pot will not hurt them. To choose a small but relatively high basin, purple sand basin can be selected for those who have been planted for two or three years. The difference between this kind of flower and others is that it needs to wash the roots before changing the basin. You can leave the toothbrush you don't use at ordinary times, brush the roots gently, and then remove the withered and injured leaves. After treatment, you can't change the basin immediately, and you have to dry it again. You can't transplant it until the roots turn white

Basin changing method

Method 1: put it upside down and change the basin

Turn the whole orchid plant upside down and wash it slowly under the faucet, but the water flow should not be too large, which will hurt the root. The same thing is to grasp the head with your fingers. You can fix the root with bamboo chopsticks, but don't let the root contact the basin. Fill 1 / 3 of the height of the mixed sand in the basin, and put the plant material on it to the position of 4 / 5 height. Pay attention to fill it well and try not to leave it blank. At this time, you can pull out the tool for fixing the root, and finally put large-grained plant material in the top layer, which can be fully shaken and compacted

Method 2: replace the basin

This method should pay attention to the drainage of the basin bottom. If you choose a basin made of purple sand, you must use this idea to cover the bottom with perforated nylon sand. Now the basin bottom is covered with 2 / 5 height coarse stone and 35 cm of culture soil. You can put orchids in it. However, when placing, the old grass must be kept to the side, the heart grass should be placed in the middle, and if the root is naturally stretched, it can be put and added with soil. Finally, press the soil tightly and water it immediately after loading, so as to closely combine the root with the soil and put it in a cool place
