1、 Fertilization time

The time of fertilization should be determined according to the actual situation of Oncidium. Although there will be differences in varieties and growth conditions, the fertilization principle under normal circumstances can still be followed

Spring, summer and autumn are the growth periods of Oncidium. Liquid fertilizer needs to be applied two or three times a month until the flower stems of the plant begin to draw out. Fertilization should be stopped, and then normal fertilization can be restored after the flowering period has passed. In addition, when the temperature is less than 10 degrees Celsius, fertilization is not allowed

At other times, liquid fertilizer can be applied two or three times a month. Of course, it can also be mixed with solid fertilizer. In addition, according to different varieties, generally tubular and leathery varieties need to apply fertilizer twice a month, but the application of fertilizer should be started in April and once every ten days

2、 Method of fertilization

Proper fertilization is very important for Oncidium. When planting, a small amount of fertilizer should be used as the base fertilizer. Generally, the substrate of potted Oncidium is not easy to maintain water and fertilizer, so some rural release fertilizer should be applied in the basin, which can increase the fertilizer efficiency of the basin soil

After fertilization, you can apply fertilizer according to various conditions. It is generally recommended to apply bean cake water or bone meal once a month. In addition to late autumn and winter when the temperature is too low, liquid quick acting fertilizer should be applied every two or three weeks at other times, which can be applied to the leaf surface or the root. When Oncidium is about to blossom, we must apply sufficient phosphorus and potassium fertilizer once. In order to effectively control diseases and pests, wenxinlan can often be watered with carbendazim or methyl tobuzin

Potted Oncidium is very ornamental, but the fertilization in the maintenance process is not so simple. I hope you can apply fertilizer appropriately according to the method of small editing. I wish the potted Oncidium cultivated by you can be more and more beautiful
