I believe that friends who have ever grown phalaenopsis must have encountered the situation where its leaves gradually become shriveled or wilted, which also means that the whole plant starts to decline and even die. If the phalaenopsis you are growing also has such a situation, it may be sending out a "SOS signal" to you. Let's learn about it together below.
What should you do if you encounter the situation of shriveled leaves? At this time, you can prepare some "first-aid water" - nutrient solution. Generally speaking, the nutrient solution contains various nutrient elements and minerals. It can not only provide sufficient nutrients for phalaenopsis, but also improve the pH value in the soil, thus giving phalaenopsis a first-aid treatment.
So how to make the first-aid water for phalaenopsis? You can dissolve compound fertilizer or orchid fertilizer in clean water, and then add some lemon juice to adjust the pH value. The nutrient solution made in this way is the first-aid water for phalaenopsis. Of course, you can also buy phalaenopsis nutrient solution on the market, and the effect is the same.
What should you pay attention to when using the first-aid water? First of all, avoid using it on the soil with salt accumulation. Secondly, it needs to be used regularly. Generally, it is recommended to use it once a week. Finally, observe the growth condition of phalaenopsis and adjust the frequency and concentration according to the specific situation.
At the same time, after using the first-aid water, you should also pay attention to watering phalaenopsis. Don't water it randomly according to your mood. Instead, water it when the surface of the pot soil is dry. In this way, the water demand of the plant can be ensured, and root rot caused by excessive watering can be avoided. Finally, apply fertilizers in a balanced way. During the growth period of phalaenopsis, it is recommended to use special balanced fertilizers and avoid single-element fertilization. Use compound fertilizers containing nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium. This can improve the quality of flowering and leaf growth. Friends who have the conditions can also add an appropriate amount of organic fertilizers to improve the soil fertility.
In general, the leaf condition of phalaenopsis affects its flowering situation. Through the content shared today, I believe you have learned how to use the "first-aid water" for phalaenopsis. Only by mastering the correct production and usage methods and adding careful maintenance later can the leaves of phalaenopsis return to a thick and shiny state again, so that the flowers will be more lush and vivid.
