1、 How long does crab claw orchid bloom

The flowering period of the crab claw orchid lasts for 4-5 months, generally from October to the next spring. Of course, the crab claw orchid does not bloom all the time, but one after another. Generally, after the failure of the crab claw orchid, pull off the residual flowers and the leaves on the top of the branches, and apply some phosphorus and potassium fertilizer. Within a month, the crab claw orchid can continue to bud and blossom wildly

2、 Can crab claw orchid be fertilized during flowering

1. Don't apply fertilizer during the flowering period: don't apply fertilizer during the flowering period. Once you don't grasp the concentration of fertilizer and water, or accidentally splash the fertilizer and water on the flower bud, it's easy to make the crab claw drop the bud or flower

2. Fertilization before flowering: the most suitable fertilization time for crab claw is to apply phosphorus and potassium fertilizer before flowering, such as burying bone meal along the edge of the basin, or watering potassium dihydrogen phosphate and roots every half a month until fertilization is stopped after flowering

3. Inconsistent flower amount: during the period of flower bud differentiation, if the pot is not fully turned in maintenance, the flower buds on both sides of the plant will be more and larger on one side and less and smaller on the other side due to uneven sunlight. At this time, on the premise that the flower bud of crab claw is still small, spray the side with less flower bud with potassium dihydrogen phosphate to make the overall flower amount of crab claw consistent
