1. Orchid pot planting steps
Select seedlings: Divide the orchid plants into several clusters. One cluster should have about three seedlings. The selected seedling bushes should be high or low, long or short, tender or slightly older. The orchid plants grown in this way will have a better layering effect.
Select a pot: You need to choose a pot with a diameter of about ten centimeters, A slightly deeper flower pot, about medium height will do. And prepare a prepared orchid soil.
Packing: A pad is required before filling with soil. You can put a tile on the bottom of the basin to cover the drainage hole, and then put in bricks, tiles, etc. one by one, leaving some gaps. The cushion pot should be approximately one-half to one-third of the height of the flowerpot.
Potting: Potting is usually done in spring. When potting, place the orchid plant directly into the flowerpot, allowing the roots, branches and leaves to stretch out naturally, then hold the plant with one hand and fill in the soil with the other, and gently shake the orchid pot to make the plant's roots and soil closely fit. Finally, compact the soil with your hands, but be careful not to damage the roots. After planting, you can also spread a layer of pebbles or moss on the surface of the pot soil, which can not only enhance the appearance but also regulate moisture.
2. Precautions
After paving the orchids, you need to water them once to moisten the soil and provide sufficient water for the plants to resume growth. Then move the orchid pot to a shaded place for maintenance.
