1. Flowerpot weight: When the orchid is short of water, the overall weight of the flowerpot will become very light, so you can judge whether the plant is short of water by the weight of the flowerpot.After watering the orchid, the weight of the flowerpot can be weighed, and then the weight of the flowerpot can be weighed before watering each time, and then whether watering is needed can be judged.When the flowerpot becomes light, you can wonder if the plant is short of water.
2. Observe the leaves: If the leaves become not upright, gradually curved, looks no spirit, it may be caused by the lack of water plants.Under normal circumstances, water shortage is not serious, the blade droop radian will not be very large, more difficult to find.But when the water shortage is serious, the curvature of the blade will be more obvious.In addition, when orchids lack water, their growth is affected, the gloss of their leaves will decline, and the surface will become dull.
3. Observe the pot soil: according to whether the pot soil is white, judge whether the pot is short of water.Or a bamboo stick can be inserted into the proper position in the basin and pulled out after a while.According to the moisture degree of the bamboo stick to judge the water content in the orchid pot planting material.If the bottom of the bamboo chopsticks is four or five centimeters wet, it does not need to be watered, otherwise it needs to be watered in time.
If the water shortage is not serious, the plant can resume normal growth only by replenishing water in time.If the water shortage is serious, it will lead to empty roots at the roots of orchids.It is necessary to dig out the plants, cut off all the empty roots, sterilize the whole plants, soak them in rooting agent solution, and then change the soil for re-planting and maintenance.
