Water and fertilizer for domestic orchids

Because the orchid is fleshy root, the leaf area is small, daily watering should not be too much. New leaves and new roots in spring should be kept moist. After summer, the temperature is getting higher and higher, water evaporation is accelerated, watering must be gradually increased, but waterlogging is avoided. The application of liquid fertilizer to orchids should be fully fermented and ripened, and it would rather be light than thick. From late May to mid-July and September, thin cake fertilizer and water can be applied every 10-15 days, and compound fertilizer or foliar fertilizer can be applied before flowering.
