The posture of phalaenopsis after blooming is truly unforgettable. I believe many flower lovers who have witnessed its flower shape when it is in full bloom will have the urge to buy a pot and raise it at home. However, even if the phalaenopsis bought home is healthy, it will inevitably come to the time when the flowers wither. After the flowers fade, how can we ensure their continued healthy growth? The following text summarizes several treatment methods based on maintenance experiences, hoping to help flower lovers manage your phalaenopsis more effectively.
First of all, when it is found that the blooming period of phalaenopsis is coming to an end, a transparent plastic film can be covered over the flowerpot with the flowers, creating a warm and humid microenvironment. This operation can effectively promote the growth of orchid roots and the formation of new flower buds. In addition, the covered film can also reduce the evaporation of water by the air, thereby keeping the orchid roots moist and conducive to the healthy growth of the orchid plants.
Secondly, when the blooming period of phalaenopsis is coming to an end, it will automatically enter a dormant state. After the flowers wither, excessive watering should be avoided, and controlling the water properly can reduce the damage to the roots. Generally, water once a week, and the soil should be moist and slightly wet. Never let the soil be soggy. Also, be careful not to fertilize anymore because giving fertilizer at this time will only stimulate the growth of the plant and cause the phalaenopsis to neglect the formation of flower buds.
Then phalaenopsis likes sunlight by nature, but it should not be exposed to direct sunlight. After its flowers wither, what remains the same is to give it scattered light. It is recommended to place the phalaenopsis in a sunny place indoors at this time, which can not only provide sufficient light for the orchid plants but also contribute to the formation of new flower buds of the orchid plants.
Finally, after dealing with the phalaenopsis, it is necessary to frequently observe the color and state of its leaves and confirm the situation of its orchid roots sprouting. This can help discover the latest problems and take measures in time. In conclusion, when it is found that the blooming period of phalaenopsis is coming to an end, the correct method is to cover the flowerpot with a plastic film first, then control the amount of watering and stop fertilizing, and then choose a place with good indoor sunlight.
