Under normal circumstances, it is best to plant only 2-3 crab claw orchids in flower pots with a diameter of 20-30cm. If the flower pot is larger, you can plant 5-8 plants, but the distance between the plants must be controlled and they cannot be too close.

1. How many plants to plant in each pot

Because the crab claw orchid has a strong growth ability, and during the growth process, it will continue to grow new branches and leaves, taking up space. Therefore, if you use a flowerpot of average size, that is, a flowerpot with a diameter of about 20-30cm, you can plant 2-3 plants in each pot. If the flower pot used is relatively large, 5-8 plants can be planted, but the distance between the plants needs to be controlled during planting and they cannot be too close.

1. Easy to root rot: If too many plants are planted in the same flower pot, the air permeability of the flower soil surface will become very poor. In this way, after each watering, the water in the soil will be difficult to evaporate quickly. They will stay in the flower soil and become waterlogged. The root system of the plant is affected by stagnant water and is prone to rot.

2. Easy to get sick: same flower pot The growing space is limited. If too many plants are planted, they will crowd together and compete for growth resources, resulting in poor growth and vulnerability to disease. In addition, they are crowded together and the inside of the plants cannot be ventilated, which can easily attract bacteria or pests and make them sick.
