The author will venture a modest contribution here and share a few personal observations, in the hope of exchanging ideas with fellow orchid enthusiasts. 1) Sunlight.

The ways to create good light conditions are: first, the shading at the orchid nursery must be moderate; second, orchids can be given appropriately increased light in stages, commonly known as "sunning the pots." Specifically, this can be done after the Spring Festival, when the weather gradually warms and the plants begin to receive more sunlight. Before the end of March, full sun can be given when the temperature is below 20°C; afterward, for Cymbidium goeringii (spring orchid), cover with one layer of shade netting when the temperature is above 20°C, and two layers when above 30°C; for Cymbidium faberi (Hui orchid), full sun can be received until the end of May, with one layer of shade netting when the temperature reaches above 30°C, and two layers when above 35°C.
