February orchid planting
First, planting time

The planting time of February orchids is generally in the middle and late October. Although sowing can be done in summer, the germination rate of autumn sowing is higher, which is more beneficial to its growth.

2. Planting method

1. Seed selection: The seeds of February orchid are very vital and do not need special selection. Soak the seeds for 2-3 hours before sowing, then take them out and air them for a while before planting.

2. Pot soil preparation: February orchids have low requirements for soil, and both acid and alkaline can grow. However, the loose and fertile soil is beneficial to its development, and it can be artificially prepared with garden soil, perlite and plant ash, among which the proportion of perlite and plant ash is less.

3. Sowing process: Place the seeds on the surface of the pot soil and cover it with fine soil. Soil should not be covered too thick, so as not to inhibit the germination of seeds. After that, it is necessary to pour enough water and keep the substrate moist to provide water for its growth.

4. Seedling maintenance: After planting, put the flowerpot in a ventilated and cool place. February orchid itself is relatively cold-resistant, so it is ok for seedlings to spend the winter outdoors, but it is better to do some warm-keeping measures. Plastic film can be used to cover the surface of the basin soil, and it can be taken down every once in a while for ventilation.
