As we all know, watering every day is essential for flowers to grow healthily. However, some flower lovers always neglect this because of forgetfulness. In the long run, most flowers will wither or wilt quietly, or even die directly. Therefore, there is a saying that immersing phalaenopsis in a basin to replenish water once. But is this correct? Let's take a look below.
As we all know, friends who can grow phalaenopsis well must have many years of flower cultivation experience themselves. Because phalaenopsis is an extremely delicate flower, taking good care of it requires adhering to the appropriate range of temperature and humidity, and the same is true for water requirements. To make it grow well, the amount of water should not be too much or too little. Therefore, for phalaenopsis, as a way to quickly replenish water, immersing it in a basin can be done like this, but it must not exceed half an hour. Otherwise, the leaves of phalaenopsis will start to turn yellow, and then the flowers will lose their former vitality and finally die.
How to master the technique of soaking in a basin? The key is to control the time. Because the root system of phalaenopsis is relatively fragile. If it is soaked in water for a long time, it will cause oxygen deficiency in the root system. After oxygen deficiency, it will cause decay and even die directly. The correct method is to strictly abide by the time within 10-15 minutes. Doing this can not only quickly make it absorb the lost water, but also prevent the root from being damaged due to lack of oxygen. Secondly, when soaking, the water used must be clean and clear. Do not use water mixed with chemicals, otherwise it is easy to cause the opposite effect. Finally, after soaking in a basin, it should be placed in a place with good ventilation immediately to let the excess water evaporate into the air as soon as possible to avoid the roots being in a wet state for a long time. During this period, do not expose it to too much sunlight. Gradually increase the light after slowing down the seedlings for about a week.
All in all, when novice flower growers need to replenish water urgently when caring for phalaenopsis and use the method of soaking in a basin, they must pay attention to controlling the time within 10-15 minutes. In addition, it should be noted that try to use one basin and one water as much as possible to avoid the growth of bacteria.
