Orchids can be planted in aquatic mud, which is acidic, and orchids like to grow in acidic environment, so it is a good choice to cultivate orchids with raw water mud, but the aeration ability of aquatic mud is poor, so some pine needles and peanut shells can be added to improve the aeration ability of aquatic mud.
Aquatic mud is a kind of river mud, so can aquatic mud be used to grow orchids? Can be used to cultivate orchids, and the effect is also very good. The acidity of aquatic mud is very high, and orchids like to grow in acidic environment, so it is most suitable to cultivate orchids with raw mud.
Don't cultivate orchids with aquatic mud, which is rich in nutrients and can't provide the nutrients needed by the roots. Therefore, it is best to add a proper amount of humus soil to supplement enough nutrients for the roots, promote the growth of the roots and make the plants grow more vigorously.
The water retention capacity of grass mud is average, so frequent watering can be avoided. When planting, some cinders can be added to the bottom of the flowerpot, which can improve the water-holding capacity, or some water-holding planting materials can also increase the water-holding capacity, which is beneficial to the growth of orchids.
The fertilizer efficiency of aquatic mud is relatively low, so it will not cause fertilizer damage when cultivating orchids. If only aquatic mud is used to cultivate orchids, some pine needles and peanut shells can be added to the aquatic mud, which can improve the aeration ability of the aquatic mud and reduce root rot.
