Orchid roots rot right after purchase, a colleague asks for help, and the editor gives it a little medicine

A few days ago, my colleague just bought a pot of Rongfei orchid. It was probably damaged during shipping and did not get timely treatment, which caused the orchid roots to rot. Today I went to her home and gave her orchid a simple "treatment."

When I pulled out her Rongfei orchid, I found that most of the roots had already started to turn black and rot

Rotted orchid roots

Remove the soil, then use scissors to cut off the rotted orchid roots, and rinse clean with clear water

Cut off the rotted roots

Prepare two vitamin B12 tablets and dissolve them (0.05 g vitamin B12 plus 1 kg water)

Then place the plant in the vitamin B12 solution water and soak for ten minutes

Soak for 10 minutes

After soaking for ten minutes, take it out and let it dry, then replace with new orchid soil and plant it back into the pot

Vitamin B12

Warm tip: Vitamin B12 is easily absorbed by orchid roots. Vitamin B12 is simply a "miracle cure" for orchids, with powerful effects. It delays orchid aging, improves immunity, promotes cell division, and most importantly of all, promotes root growth and budding and increases flowering and reproduction ability!
