Many flower lovers raise orchids like other flowers. When changing pots or dividing pots, they will treat wounds with carbendazim solution or soak them for disinfection. But for healthy orchids, this will not only have no benefit, but will weaken the growth of orchids. The reason is simple, because the roots of orchids are conducive to the growth of orchids. When carbendazim is used to kill other harmful bacteria, it will also accidentally injure orchids, thus affecting their growth.
What is auricularia auricula? Actually, it's a natural bacterium of orchids. Its vitality is stronger than that of common harmful bacteria, and it can multiply rapidly, forming a natural barrier for orchids and preventing the invasion of harmful bacteria. At the same time, orchids provide nutrients and water for their growth, and at the same time, they can decompose and absorb orchids to provide power for their own growth. Orchid bacteria are good for orchids. Without this beneficial bacteria, orchids may be attacked by other bacteria and affect their growth.
Now, let's go back to my main topic, "Do you want to soak the roots with carbendazim when you change pots and divide them?" My point of view is this: If orchids are healthy, they just want to change the material of plants or change a bigger flowerpot. Don't use any bactericide, and don't shake the original soil too clean. It can keep a small amount of original soil and plant it quickly, which has little effect on the later growth. If the orchid itself grows unhealthy, there are many hollow roots and rotten roots after boiling. After the roots are properly trimmed, put them in a cool and ventilated place to dry for a day or two to let the wounds heal naturally, then put them in a basin and maintain them in a cool and ventilated place for about a week, and then slowly enter normal maintenance. If orchids have been infected by bacteria, such as spots on the leaves, it is necessary to disinfect the whole plant seriously, or soak it, otherwise the bacteria will soon come back without cleaning. If you have obvious wounds when distributing orchids, you are worried that the wounds will be invaded by bacteria after planting. In addition to drying the roots, you can also apply a little carbendazim solution to the wound for sterilization, so that local application has little effect on orchids with healthy roots.
To sum up, healthy orchids should not use carbendazim indiscriminately, which will accidentally hurt orchids. Orchids infected by germs can be used as appropriate.
