Temperature is important

The optimum temperature for the growth of crab claw is about 20 degrees, and if it exceeds 30 degrees, it will enter a semi dormant state. In winter, the indoor temperature is maintained at about 15 degrees, and lower than 10 degrees will lead to falling flowers and buds. It is advisable to keep the temperature at about 10 to 15 degrees during flowering

Proper light promotes flowering

Crab claw orchid likes to scatter light. Plants with short sunshine can bloom in two or three months after 8 hours of sunshine every day. You can also use this method to adjust the flowering time of crab claw orchid

Change basin every year

In order to make the crab claw blossom every year, it is necessary to change the pot. The pot change time is generally in March and April. Choose loose, fertile and slightly acidic soil with good permeability, and lay a layer of sand at the bottom of the pot to facilitate water permeability. Cut off the dense and weak branches and cut them short appropriately, so as to facilitate the germination of tender branches and promote the flowering and prosperity of crab claw orchid

Regular pruning

After the flowers wither, cut off the remaining flowers in time, cut short from the 3 ~ 4 stem nodes under the remaining flowers, and drain some old stems and over dense stem nodes for ventilation

Too many weak flower buds on the stem nodes should also be picked in time, which can promote the same size and vigorous flowering of flowers

Maintain a certain humidity

Crab claw needs 50% ~ 60% air humidity. When the environment is dry, you can spray water on the plant or the ground near the plant to increase the air humidity. The number of pregnant buds can also be increased by spraying more water on the leaf surface

See dry and wet for watering

Crab claw orchid doesn't like water. Watering too much can easily lead to root rot. watering should be done after the basin soil is slightly dry. When the crab claw orchid has a bud, it is necessary to control the amount and frequency of watering. When the basin soil is dry, water it again

Don't move the flowerpot easily

During the bud pregnancy and flowering period, the flower bud and root system are very fragile. At this time, we must not easily determine the flower pot, which is easy to cause rhizome fracture, falling flowers and buds. During the flower bud formation period, fix the crab claw to the place where the light is scattered, and do not move the flower pot
