The watering of the Clivia has always been a big problem. Many people either watered too much or watered too little, which eventually led to that the Clivia was either rotten root or yellow leaf.
1. In fact, it is not necessary to water Clivia very hard, because its fleshy roots can store some water. Generally speaking, the Clivia in the flower market is raised in loose soil such as pine needles. These Clivia need to be watered once in about 3-5 days.
2. If it is cultivated in the garden soil and other very sticky soil, it is better to water it once a week or two, because the water in the soil is not easy to evaporate, and it will accumulate water if it is watered more.
3. Of course, the most scientific method of watering is to see the dry and wet, that is to say, after the soil on the surface of 2-3cm of Clivia is completely dry, water the Clivia again.
In fact, Junzi LAN is more suitable to be placed on the sunny Nanyang terrace. In addition to summer, you should move Junzi LAN to the indoor living room to avoid direct light, other seasons can be directly placed on the balcony.
In addition, every 1 week, we should turn the flowerpot 180 degrees to avoid the skew of the leaves.
Clivia leaves skew, mainly because of the uneven light on both sides of the leaves, the leaves will gradually move to the place with more light. What should we do after the skew?
1. Cut tinfoil or opaque newspaper into strips.
2. According to the method shown in the figure below, fix the tin paper on the Clivia leaf. Pay attention to cover only half of the Clivia leaf.
3. If the leaves are slanting towards that side, they will cover that side.
4. At the same time, we also need to cooperate with the basin, some of which are not very serious. Generally, they can recover in half a month.
Junzi orchid likes fertilizer, especially the retting of oil crops.
1. In autumn, there is a great demand for fertilizer in Clivia. Therefore, it is necessary to combine with basin changing, and put a layer of bean dregs, bone meal, hemp seeds or other base fertilizer on the bottom of Clivia's flowerpot..
2. In addition, it needs to apply fermented bean cake water or fishy water once a half month. Fish fishy water more phosphate fertilizer, bean cake water more nitrogen fertilizer, now is mainly to prepare for the next year's flowering.
3. In winter, if the indoor temperature is above 15 ℃, normal fertilization is OK, about 10 days, liquid fertilizer is applied once, mainly phosphate fertilizer. If the temperature is below 10 ℃, stop fertilizing.
1. Before changing pots, stop water for 1-2 weeks to let the soil and flowerpot of Clivia separate
2. Turn the flowerpot upside down and gently take out the Clivia
3. Gently tap the root system, first remove the large soil mass, and then clean up the soil with water.
4. Clean up the root system, and cut off the dead root, empty root and rotten root system on the Clivia root system.
5. Then put the wound in carbendazim or potassium permanganate solution for disinfection.
6. Prepare a new pot soil, which is made up of 50% rotten leaf soil, 30% pine needles, 10% coarse sand, 10% hemp and bone powder.
7. First fill the gap in the root system of Clivia with soil, and then put it into the basin.
8. After the monarch orchid is put into the basin, water it first, then put it into the scattering light place for maintenance, first let the monarch orchid slow down its roots, about 2-3 days later, then put it on the balcony for maintenance.
