How to clean orchid leaves? Latest method shared
One, rain rinse
It is said that spring rain is as precious as oil, which shows that spring rain is the gentlest of the rains of the four seasons. In spring, you can move the orchid outdoors and rinse it with the continuous fine rain from nature, and the dust on the orchid leaves will be washed away with the rain.
Two, spray bottle rinse
If there are heavy rainstorms in other seasons, they are not suitable for rinsing orchids. You can find a large vat to collect the rainwater, put the rainwater into a fine spray bottle, and simulate spring rain to rinse the orchid leaves. However, you need to note that when using a spray bottle to rinse the plant leaves, you must pay attention to the ventilation of the care environment.
Three, watering method
⟦NL>When watering orchids, rainwater, that is, precipitation, is usually first choice, river water second, and when conditions are really poor, then the next best option is to use sun-dried tap water for irrigation. When watering, use a fine-spout spray bottle to wet the entire orchid; do not pour water in a big ladle into the center of the flowerpot. The timing of watering also matters. Usually in summer, watering should be done in the morning and evening, and never at noon, so as not to affect the growth of the orchid. In autumn and winter, do not water with cold water; water with clear water that has been left to stand in advance. As for the immersion pot watering method, it is usually used for orchid seedlings that have just been potted. Adult orchids are best watered and replenished with clear water.
