Clay granules to buy! White beetle?

Before starting the repotting of orchids you should still buy a sack Seramis clay granules as a drainage layer to.
The advantage of orchids granules is that orchids can be planted directly in pot holders.
From the orchid is the old granules and cuts off sick, withered roots.
From normal Seramisgranulat filling about a 1-2cm layer high in the planter.
The clay granules ensures that the orchid feet wet gets.
Over the drainage layer you sprinkle some orchids granules and sets the orchid in the pot.
The pot is now filled in with the rest orchids granules.
Carefully knock the pot is on d. Soil and pushes the orchid firm carefully.
I have made the experience the high orchid (Oncidium) are slightly wobbly in the granules.
After inserting something is poured.

The orchids granulate consists of differently sized pine pieces and pieces of clay.
Already after 2 weeks you will notice that either new shoots the orchid or flower forms what is on vorgedüngten granules.
As the orchids are planted in the planter, you have little control over the moisture, the Seramis Gießanzeiger does not work in the Orchid granules.
Packages can be said that one should even less cast.

Unfortunately, it is also with me happened before the cavorting in the granular small, white, barely visible beetles.
In this case, the granules for weeks was clearly too moist.
It does not use water Decalcified a slight cold crust forms on the pellets.
It also happens to form liquid fertilizer residues on the granule.
