3 correct ways to ruin your phalaenopsis

Hello everyone.

At first, when I thought up the name of the notes, wished to write "How quickly ruin your Phalaenopsis". But it would be wrong: rapidly destroy the plant does not work. Phalaenopsis - surprisingly hardy orchid. In uninhabitable conditions it can grow for several years, with very abundant flowering. But the result, alas, one - orhoray (ie dump).

Actually, surprisingly, if you try to kill your orchid, you can count on a long and enchanting bloom. And abundant growth of children. The mechanism is simple: Phalaenopsis feels approaching death and tries to leave offspring - seeds or babies.

By purchasing a strange tropical plant, most unlucky gardeners do not bother to learn anything about agriculture, planting a novelty in the ground or in a store mix for orchids. What's the first that the second will not do. The other part is trying to find out information on the Internet and runs into frank delirium, issued for the truth.

Phalaenopsis want to destroy? Here's what to do:

1. Planted in the ground or a mixture of peat, expanded clay and thin chips. You are great - in this ground is not out of the question for ventilation. Hi, rot! In fact, all Falikov do not need anything other than a large thick bark and sphagnum moss.

2. Crap in a plastic pot as much as possible the holes on the sides. To be ventilated. Yes, phalaenopsis to dry, the roots of which must be in the air, but a moist environment - a great way to create flower unbearable conditions.

3. Watering after complete drying. Well, why do good breathable ground, so as not to cause root rot. Easier to retain moisture. But we must pay tribute to the supporters of this method: the truth will not rot. But peresushka - yes. And died from it much more orchids than that of rotten roots.
