Some points for attention in Orchid Culture

Some novices feel annoyed about raising good orchids and have the idea of giving up raising orchids. In fact, as long as you master the characteristics of orchids, you can still cultivate orchids. Here are some points for attention for beginners.

First, wild orchids are mainly distributed in the southeast and southwest, and the growth environment is the shade of moist valleys and sparse forests. Therefore, orchids prefer warm and wet environments and places that avoid high temperature, dryness and strong light.

2. In the process of managing orchids, yellow leaves, old leaves, withered leaves and diseased leaves should be cut off in time to ventilate the orchid plants.

Third, after the bud is unearthed, only one flower bud is left for each plant, and the rest is cut off so as not to consume nutrients and affect flowering.

Fourth, the orchid should be protected from freezing in winter, which can be moved indoors or in a plastic shed against the cold, and should be ventilated at the same time. When the temperature rises, the orchid should be moved to the outdoor or balcony.

Fifth, to water orchids, natural Rain Water and river water are preferred, and well water is secondary. If tap water is used, it should be parked in a water tank for one day before use.

Sixth, properly fatten the orchids. Here we introduce a natural and convenient method to irrigate the orchids with fermented Amoy rice water. Source: Lao Yao blog
