Kungani i-orchid yami ingaqhakazi? Izimbangela ezivamile nokuthi zingalungiswa kanjani.

Ngithole i-orchid njengesipho eminyakeni embalwa edlule eyahlala cishe iminyaka emibili yonke ingaqhakazi ngisho nakanye, naphezu kokuthi amaqabunga abonakala ephilile futhi ephila isikhathi sonke, ngaphandle kwezimpawu ezibonakalayo zesifo noma ukunganakwa. Lokhu kukhungatheka kwangenza ngaphenya ngokuningiliziwe ngezinto ezithonya ukuqhakaza, ngithola ukuthi kunezimbangela eziningana ezahlukene ngemuva kwale nkinga, evame kakhulu phakathi kwabalimi.

Ukuntuleka kokuvuselelwa kokushisa, imbangela evame kakhulu kwezinye izinhlobo.

Njengoba sengivele ngichaze kabanzi kwesinye isihloko mayelana nokushisa okufanele, ama-orchid amaningi, kufaka phakathi i-Phalaenopsis, adinga ukwehla kokushisa kwasebusuku phakathi nenkathi ethile yonyaka ukuze kuqalwe inqubo yokuqhakaza, okuyisikhuthazo esivame ukuntuleka ezindaweni zangaphakathi ezinezinga lokushisa elingaguquki unyaka wonke.

Ngingasiqala kanjani lesi sikhuthazo sokushisa kwesitshalo esingaqhakazi?

Ngithutha isitshalo ngisiyise endaweni epholile ngokwemvelo ebusuku ngesikhathi sekwindla, njenge-balcony evikelekile, okuvumela umehluko wokushisa phakathi kwemini nobusuku ukuthi usebenze njengesizathu semvelo isitshalo esisidingayo ukuqala isiqu sezimbali.

Ukukhanya okwanele, esinye isizathu esivame kakhulu sale nkinga ekhungathekisayo.

Njengoba sengivele ngichaze kabanzi kwesinye isihloko mayelana nokukhanya okuhle, isitshalo esithola ukukhanya okungaqondile okubuthakathaka kakhulu sivame ukuba namaqabunga anempilo, kodwa ngaphandle kwamandla anele okusekela inqubo yokuqhakaza, okudinga ukutshalwa kwezimali okukhulu kakhulu kwesitshalo.

Ngingazi kanjani ukuthi ukukhanya akwanele ngempela kulolu hlobo oluthile?

Ngiyabona ukuthi iqabunga linombala oluhlaza okotshani obumnyama, uphawu lokukhanya okunganele, esikhundleni sombala oluhlaza okotshani okulindelekile esitshalweni esithola ukukhanya okwanele. Lesi isibonakaliso esibonakalayo esilula esisiza ukuqinisekisa lesi sizathu esingenzeka ngaphambi kokwenza noma yiziphi izinguquko endaweni yesitshalo.

Ukukhulelwa okunganele kuyisici esinganciphisa amandla atholakalayo.

Njengoba sengivele ngichaze kabanzi kwesinye isihloko mayelana nokufaka umanyolo, i-phosphorus, ikakhulukazi, idlala indima ebalulekile ekuqhakazeni, ngakho-ke isitshalo esingakaze sithole umanyolo noma sithole ifomula engalingani singase singabi nemithombo eyanele yokudla okunempilo ukuze siqedele le nqubo enzima kakhulu.

Ngingayilungisa kanjani indlela yokukhulisa umanyolo ukuze ngikhuthaze ukuqhakaza kwezimbali?

Ngikhulisa kancane i-phosphorus kufomula yomanyolo ngokushesha nje lapho ngibona izimpawu zokuthi isitshalo singena esikhathini sokuqhakaza esifanele, ukulungiswa engikubonile kwenza umehluko wangempela ezitshalweni ezazibonakala zimile ngaphambili, zikhiqiza amaqabunga amasha kuphela.

Lesi sitshalo sisesincane kakhulu, okuyisizathu engikhohlwa ukusicabangela ngezinye izikhathi.

Amanye ama-orchid adinga nje ukufinyelela izinga elithile lokuvuthwa ngaphambi kokuba aqhakaze, okuyisici esihlobene nobudala esizimele ngokuphelele ekunakekelweni okunikezwayo, esidinga isineke esengeziwe kuphela kuze kube yilapho isitshalo sesikulungele ngempela ngokwezinto eziphilayo.

Ngingahlola kanjani ukuthi ukuvuthwa kungaba yisici esivimbelayo kulokhu?

Ngihlola usayizi wesitshalo kanye nenani lamaqabunga akhule, ngiqhathanisa nezinga elilindelekile lesampula esikhulile, esiqhakazayo, ngoba isithombo esisesincane futhi esinamaqabunga ambalwa cishe sidinga isikhathi esengeziwe sokukhula ngaphambi kokuqhakaza.

Imbiza inkulu kakhulu, into eqondisa amandla ekukhuleni kwezimpande.

Njengoba sengivele ngichaze kabanzi kwesinye isihloko mayelana nezinhlobo zezimbiza, isitsha esikhulu kakhulu kunokudingekile sibangela ukuthi isitshalo sitshale amandla ikakhulukazi ekwakheni izimpande ezintsha ukuze zihlale kuleso sikhala, esikhundleni sokuqondisa izinsiza ekukhiqizeni izimbali.

Ngingalungisa kanjani usayizi webhodwe uma ngibona lokhu kungalingani?

Ukufaka kabusha isitsha esifanelana kakhulu nosayizi wangempela wesistimu yezimpande yamanje, kulandela isimiso esivele sichazwe kwesinye isihloko sendlela yokutshala kabusha ngendlela efanele, ukuqondisa kabusha ukugxila kwamandla esitshalo ekuqhakazeni esikhundleni sokukhula ngokweqile kwezitshalo.

Umswakama onganele, okuyisici semvelo esithinta nale nqubo.

Njengoba sengivele ngichaze kabanzi kwesinye isihloko mayelana nomswakama, indawo eyomile kakhulu ingacindezela isitshalo ngendlela yokuthi ibeke phambili ukusinda okuyisisekelo kunokuzala, okwenza lokhu kulungiswa kwemvelo kube esinye isici esibalulekile okufanele sicatshangelwe kulesi simo esiyinkimbinkimbi.

Ngingazihlanganisa kanjani zonke lezi zinto ocwaningweni oluhlelekile?

Ngibukeza isici ngasinye ngokwaso, ngiqala ngesici okungenzeka kakhulu ngicabangela uhlobo oluthile, ngilungisa esisodwa ngesikhathi ukuze ngibone ukuthi yiluphi ushintsho oluye lwenza umehluko, ngigwema imbangela nomphumela odidayo ngokushintsha konke ngasikhathi sinye ngaphandle kwenqubo ecacile.

Iphutha engilenzile ngaphambili kwaba ukushintsha izinto eziningana ngesikhathi esisodwa ngaphandle kwemibandela.

Emizamweni yokuxazulula inkinga ngokushesha, ngashintsha ngasikhathi sinye indawo yokukhanya, inqubo yokukhulelwa, kanye nembiza yesitshalo esifanayo, kwathi lapho ekugcineni siqhakaza ezinyangeni kamuva, angikwazanga ukuqinisekisa ukuthi yikuphi ukulungiswa okuthile okwenza umehluko ngempela.

Indlela engishintshe ngayo indlela yami yokwenza izinto ngemva kokufunda kulelo phutha.

Manje ngisebenzisa ukulungiswa okukodwa ngesikhathi, ngilinde amasonto ambalwa ukuze ngibone impendulo ngaphambi kokucabangela ushintsho olulandelayo. Kuyindlela ehamba kancane, kodwa inginika ukucaca okwengeziwe ngokuthi yini esebenza ngempela esitshalweni ngasinye esithile.

Ukurekhoda ukulungiswa ngakunye kanye nempendulo yesitshalo encwadini yami yokubhala ekhulayo.

Ngiphawula encwadini yami yokubhala ekhulayo, engivele ngishilo kwenye isihloko, zonke izinguquko engizisebenzisa esitshalweni esingaqhakazi, nokuthi kuthatha isikhathi esingakanani ukuthi ekugcineni sikhiqize isiqu sezimbali—irekhodi elibalulekile lokusebenzisa lokhu kufunda kwesinye isitshalo esifanayo esikhathini esizayo.

Ubhubhane olufihliwe noma inkinga yezempilo, imbangela okufanele ikhishwe.

Njengoba ngichazile kwezinye izihloko mayelana nezimbungulu nezimbuzane, izinambuzane ezingabonakali ezidla amandla esitshalo njalo nazo zingaba yimbangela yokungabikho kwezimbali, ngakho hlola ngokucophelela ngaphambi kokuthi ucabange ukuthi imbangela iwukungcoliswa kwemvelo kuphela.

Indlela ekugcineni engathatha isinqumo sokuxazulula inkinga yesitshalo engasithola njengesipho.

Ngemva kokubukeza ngokuhlelekile isici ngasinye, ngathola ukuthi inkinga enkulu kwakuwukukhanya okwanele okuhlanganiswe nembiza enkulu kakhulu, futhi ngokushesha nje lapho ngilungisa lezo zinto ezimbili, lesi sitshalo sagcina sikhiqize izimbali zaso zokuqala ngemva kweminyaka ecishe ibe mibili yokulinda okukhungathekisayo.

Ngingamcebisa kanjani umuntu ongibuza ngesitshalo esingakaze siqhakaze selokhu sathengwa?

Ngihlala ngibuza kuqala ngesimo sokukhanya samanje kanye nosayizi webhodwe maqondana nesistimu yezimpande, njengoba lezi zici ezimbili zihlangene ngokuvamile ziyimbangela yezimo eziningi zokuntuleka kwezimbali engisize abanye abalimi ukuzixazulula eminyakeni edlule.

Imibuzo engibuzwe yona mayelana nama-orchid angaqhakazi.

Kufanele ngilinde isikhathi esingakanani ngaphambi kokuba ngicabange ukuthi kunenkinga ngempela?
Kuncike ohlotsheni lwezilwane, kodwa ngokuvamile ngilinda okungenani umjikelezo owodwa wesizini ephelele ngaphambi kokucabanga ukuthi kukhona isici esinqunyelwe esidinga ukulungiswa okuqondile.

Kungenzeka yini ukuthi i-orchid ingalokothi iqhakaze ngisho noma konke kuphelele?
Akuvamile, kodwa kungenzeka uma isitshalo sinomkhawulo othile wezakhi zofuzo noma wezempilo ongaziwa, yize iningi lamacala empeleni lisabela kahle ekulungisweni okuthile kwemvelo ngemva kophenyo olucophelelayo.

Ingabe kukhona umkhiqizo othize okhuthaza ngqo ukuqhakaza kwezimbali?
Kukhona umanyolo owenzelwe ngqo le njongo, kodwa ngithanda ukulungisa indawo eyisisekelo kuqala, njengoba umkhiqizo ovuselelayo wodwa ungavamile ukukhokhela isimo esiyisisekelo esinganele, njengokukhanya okwanele noma ukuntuleka kwesikhuthazo sokushisa esidingekayo.

Ukuhlola ngendlela ehlelekile ukuthi kungani i-orchid ingaqhakazi kungifundise lukhulu ngobunkimbinkimbi bezinto ezithonya le nqubo, okubonisa ukuthi isineke nokulungiswa kancane kancane kuvame ukuba yigugu kunanoma yisiphi isisombululo esisheshayo nesijwayelekile esisetshenziswa ngaphandle kophenyo olufanele lwangaphambilini.
