The soil requirement is acidic, nutrient soil can be cultivated, and a little calcium carbonate can be added to change the acid-base balance of the soil. After adding the mixed configuration of peat soil and vermiculite, the soil of the lipstick is ready to be completed.

Illumination: Lipsticks prefer the semi-yin land, while the illumination requires an average temperature of 15-25 degrees Celsius, while the average daily sunshine ratio can be controlled to about 50%, not more than 70%. However, if the lipstick is planted, the illumination time is too long, or the light intensity is insufficient, it will affect the growth rate of the lipstick.

Humidity: Lipstick is a kind of plant that can be watered daily, but it is often sprayed with water, a small amount. On a daily basis, the lipstick should be placed in a ventilated environment. The indoor planting humidity should be controlled to about 25 degrees Celsius, while in cold winters, the humidity can be kept above 12 degrees Celsius.

For the cultivation of cuttings, the daily sunshine should be kept at not less than 50%. Avoid placing in sweltering, ice room, strong sunlight, maintaining humidity, and germination time is about 40 days. If it is vigorously germinated, it can be transplanted.

4. Planting steps

1 Potting soil selection: Firstly, it should be considered as open-air planting or potted planting. If you choose potted plants indoors, you can prepare pots or plastic bottles. Put the prepared nutritious soil into it and add appropriate amount of calcium phosphate to keep it. Soil acidity.

2 transplantation: In the spring, you can take out the transplanted lipsticks, and transplant them. Then, compact the roots, pour the root water, and place them on the balcony to ensure proper humidity and temperature control.

3 watering: lipstick soil, should be kept semi-moist at any time, but can not accumulate water, easy to cause root rot, the growth of lipstick sapphire, 3 to September need a larger amount of water, and after autumn, the air humidity is strong, visible water Watering amount. Therefore, it can be selected mainly by spray watering, which can enhance the humidity and accurately grasp the wettability of the soil. According to the seasonal environment, the number of watering can be accurately reduced and increased.

4 pests and puddles: the plants of the lipstick plant are relatively strong, so it is difficult to cause pests, but it is easy to cause root rot due to watering. At this time, you can choose to spray more than 40% of the roots and spray them by spraying. You can also choose 402 emulsifiables with a difficulty of about 1500 times.

5 pruning topping: the growth of lipstick red orchids, in the first year will be in the vigorous growth period, appropriate picking, can keep the plant robust, to achieve the purpose of branching. After the winter, the lipstick stems should have residual stems, which can be cut off to promote sprouting and buds.

How to do the yellow tip of the spider

(1) Due to excessive fertilization, the yellow tip of the leaf tip will appear after the nutrient demand for the cultivation of the lipstick.

After the nutrients are reduced, the yellowing, dryness and thinning will naturally occur. . At this point, a new map can be properly cultivated, or an appropriate amount of water can be poured.

(3) Lipstick spider orchid has higher requirements on temperature and humidity, and insufficient light will cause the leaves of the lipstick spider to yellow. This phenomenon is caused by insufficient light, green leaves of plants, and then affecting plant growth. It should be kept for about 5 hours per day. When the sun is violent, it can be dominated by astigmatism.

(4) Due to the accumulation of water in the basin, it affects the permeability and water permeability of the roots of the plants, makes breathing difficult, stops growing, and causes the leaves to turn yellow. At this time, appropriate loose soil can be performed to control the amount of water to be poured. It can be selected by spray watering, and the spraying is moist.

Matters needing attention: the mouth of the lipstick is yellow, many reasons for daily maintenance, to avoid yellowing, you need to master the four main points of "his cool, often change basins, often spray water, diligent soil".

With the correct cultivation method, diligent pruning, diligent fertilization, and frequent watering can promote new branches and more buds.

Summary: Lipstick spider planting method is simple, but daily care is more complicated, so it requires a lot of energy. The introduction of the method of cultivating the lipstick is as above, I hope to help you.
