1、 Pruning time

A leaf orchid is usually pruned in winter and spring. Spring is its growth period. At this time, pruning helps to recover quickly and shape better. It grows slowly in winter. Proper pruning can reduce the consumption of nutrients and water, which is more conducive to overwintering

2、 Appropriate thinning

Too much leafy orchid will lead to poor air circulation inside. So as to breed bacteria and cause various diseases and insect pests, so appropriate thinning is needed. At the same time, the branches and leaves that grow too fast should be cut off to avoid consuming too much nutrients and stunting other leaves

3、 Timely leaf picking

After the orchid grows poorly or is attacked by diseases and insect pests, the yellow leaf should be removed in time. On the one hand, it can promote the growth of new leaves, on the other hand, it can prevent the expansion of diseases. In particular, aging leaves are easy to attract pests and must be cut off as soon as possible

4、 Short cut branch

If the branches of monophyllum are too high, it will often make the plant look less beautiful and affect the germination of new leaves. Therefore, the higher branches will be appropriately cut short, which is more conducive to its overall growth
