The pseudobulbs of new growth in the current year are not large; this is normal. Pseudobulbs grow in autumn and winter; their growth requires a certain temperature difference (above 15 degrees during the day, below 10 degrees at night, and at this time more sun exposure can also make the pseudobulbs plump and strong). Based on the above characteristics, you can apply an inorganic fertilizer mainly of phosphorus fertilizer supplemented by potassium fertilizer, or apply well-rotted farmyard organic fertilizer. Whether inorganic or organic fertilizer, remember never to apply it in a concentrated dose! The fertilization period is from after mid-September each year to before November (referring to areas south of the Yellow River).
