Environment: south-facing enclosed balcony, good ventilation, ample light.
No heating, no humidifying, no shading, no fertilizing.
Management: water more during the growing period, water less during dormancy, adjust flexibly according to changes in season, temperature and humidity.

Insights:
1; Observe diligently, fuss less, be attentive, and constantly accumulate experience.
Understand the nature of orchids, follow the nature of orchids, master the nature of orchids, and any plant can be grown like an orchid!

With a ventilated environment, a draining and breathable potting mix, suitable pot and material choices, and proper management, orchids can be grown well!
3; There is no fixed formula for growing orchids; it relies on insight and the experience accumulated in daily life.
Different environments, different potting mixes, different management - do not copy mechanically!
