What to do when the orchid survival rate is low? Practical methods to help you improve the survival rate

Methods to improve the survival rate of orchids: ① Pay attention to the planting season. Different types of orchids have different planting seasons, and when dividing them you must pay attention to the season. Cymbidium goeringii (spring orchid) is best divided and planted in late autumn, while Cymbidium ensifolium (two-stem orchid) is best divided and planted in spring before the new buds emerge.

② The soil of a good bed must be acidic and have good drainage and aeration. A mix of peat, river sand and mountain soil is suitable.

③ Water and fertilize reasonably.

④ The planting environment for orchids must be good and must suit the ecological habits of orchids, so as to favor healthy growth.

⑤ Choose orchid seedlings with complete, robust root systems. The orchid clump should have several generations of pseudobulbs, "old, medium and young"; such seedlings are easy to keep alive.

⑥ Pests and diseases should be prevented and controlled in time. When pests or diseases are found, promptly spray the targeted pesticide.
