Why does not bloom orchids: the main reasons

Orchid beautiful during flowering, but illiterate care can significantly shorten this period and make it attack is extremely rare. That can be an obstacle for the development of the flowers, you will learn in this article.

The main reasons for the lack of long shoots in orchids include:

· Abrupt temperature changes;

· Lack of light;

· Irregular watering;

· Diseases of plants;

· Overfeeding nitrogen orchid;

· Disturbance regime of plants.

Variations in temperature are harmful to the plant. Insulation from the flower room on frosty winter nights leads to its supercooling. Neglect of timely ventilation of the room, where there are pots of orchids on hot summer days inhibits photosynthesis.

The change in temperature is 5 ° C - the cause of the formation of condensation on the leaves and development of parasitic diseases.

Placing a pot with the plant at a location which is illuminated by direct sunlight, it leads to gradual fading. The lack of shading in the spring, when the intensity of sunlight is the strongest, can cause the appearance on the leaves of orchids sunburn.

In addition, the tender for the exotic plants is just as important the duration of daylight. During daylight hours, lasting less than 12 hours, the orchid does not manage to satisfy their need for light, and after a few days in the plant starts wilting process: the upper part of the young go down, the leaves become softer, less elastic.

The optimal duration of daylight for young orchids, and all of sixteen to eighteen hours a day.

Watering the plants also plays an important role in his life. Saturate plant water should only after drying the substrate. Oversupply of moisture leads to root rot orchid, and as a result, to stop the development of the root system.

Lack of water, on the other hand, causes the drying roots of the plant and its leaves change their colors and twisting. Development of diseases as well does not add strength to the plant.

Plaque, stain, rot - all this indicates a wrong florist orchid care and the need for its treatment. It, in turn, depends on the nature of the disease: from fungal it bacterial or viral.

Overfeeding nitrogen orchid shortens its life. Signs of excess fertilizer is the change in thickness, size and color of leaves, their deformation and cracking.

Sudden changes in temperature, lack of light and irregular watering eventually disrupt sleep mode orchids, without which life for this flower is not possible.
