Today, the editor will introduce the Phalaenopsis orchid of the plant world, and what should be done when its leaves turn yellow? Let the editor answer your questions.

I. What to do when Phalaenopsis orchid leaves turn yellow

First, we need to understand the reasons why Phalaenopsis orchid leaves turn yellow. If the top of the new shoot of the Phalaenopsis orchid shrivels, the young leaves are pale yellow, and the old leaves also look dull yellow, this indicates that the Phalaenopsis orchid has been waterlogged for too long, causing the soil to lack oxygen and some roots to have already rotted. At this point, watering and fertilizing should be stopped. If the new leaves of the Phalaenopsis orchid are thick and glossy, but the leaf surface is uneven, and the old leaves gradually fall off, this indicates excessive fertilizing. At this point, fertilizing should be stopped and watering done appropriately. If the top and new leaves of the Phalaenopsis orchid are normal, but the lower leaves of the plant fall off first, this is because the plant has not been watered thoroughly for a long time. At this point, it should be watered appropriately to keep the potting soil moist from top to bottom.

II. How to grow Phalaenopsis orchids

1. Water appropriately to avoid root rot in Phalaenopsis orchids.

2. Temperature affects the flowering of Phalaenopsis orchids. The daytime temperature is best kept between 25-28 degrees, and the nighttime temperature needs to be kept between 18-20 degrees. If the nighttime temperature is below 15 degrees, keep it warm by putting a bag over the orchid plant.

3. For Phalaenopsis orchids, the amount of fertilizer must be especially well controlled to avoid over-fertilizing. 4 From June to September, when it enters the growing period, the orchid plant needs to be fertilized once a week. In summer and autumn, reduce the frequency of fertilizing. 4. Be sure to choose a breathable multi-hole pot.

4. Repot the Phalaenopsis orchid once a year in late spring and early summer. Phalaenopsis orchids like soil with strong air permeability, which can prevent poor growth caused by the rotting of the growing medium.
