The egret orchid, with its unique beauty and elegant form, has become a favorite among flower lovers and gardening enthusiasts. Whether it is used to decorate the garden or decorate the interior, it can add a touch of natural and pure beauty to your living space.
The following is a detailed method of raising seedlings:
1. Preparation
Substrate selection: Choose a substrate with good air permeability and good drainage. You can use a mixture of moss, peat soil and perlite in a ratio of 2:1:1.
2. Sowing steps.
Sowing method: Spread the treated seeds evenly on the surface of the substrate. There is no need to cover the soil, but you can lightly compact it to ensure good contact between the seeds and the substrate. After sowing, spray water evenly with a sprayer to keep the substrate moist.
3. Germination and seedling management
Germination time: It takes 3-4 weeks for Egret orchid seeds to germinate. During this period, it is necessary to keep the substrate moist and the humidity of the environment.
Seedling management: When the seedlings grow 2-3 true leaves, the covering plastic film can be gradually removed to adapt to changes in the environment. At this point, you can start fertilizing in an appropriate amount, once every two weeks.
4. Transplanting
Transplanting time: When the seedlings have grown to 4-5 true leaves and have developed root systems, they can be transplanted. It usually takes 6-8 months.
Transplanting method: Carefully remove the seedlings from the substrate, trying to keep the root system intact. Transplant into a larger pot or flower bed, choose a similar substrate, and maintain good drainage.
5. Post-maintenance
Light and temperature: Egret orchids prefer diffused light and avoid strong direct sunlight.
Watering: Keep the substrate moist but not too wet to avoid standing water. To increase air humidity in summer, you can spray the leaves frequently.
Fertilization: During the growth period, you can apply diluted orchid-specific fertilizer once a month, and increase the proportion of phosphorus and potassium fertilizer appropriately before the flowering period.
With careful care and the right environment, you can successfully grow beautiful egret orchids to add a unique touch of natural beauty to your garden or indoors.
