Dad is a person who really loves growing potted plants. At first he just grew some common flowers and plants. After growing them for a while, he suddenly fell in love with growing orchids. But growing orchids was not all smooth sailing. In the early stage, he also spent a lot of time and energy, but he did not grow a single pot of orchids well. Later, Dad discovered that growing orchids also has its own methods. Put it at the bottom of the pot when growing orchids, and there will be no root rot and no yellow leaves, big white roots will grow vigorously, and new shoots will burst out all over the pot! Today I will share it!

I do not know what growing medium you all use for potted orchids or whether you have any special secret tricks? In the past, the soil Dad used for growing orchids was the soil that came with the pots when they were bought. This kind of soil dissolves as soon as it meets water and hardens when dry, so as Dad kept growing the orchids, he ended up with nothing but empty pots. Later, Dad really put in the effort, and the orchids he grew afterward got better pot by pot. The problem lay in the soil and growing medium. The two bags in the picture that are essential for growing orchids are pine bark and sheep manure!

Now every time Dad grows a pot of orchids, he repots the plant, uses his special orchid-growing ingredients, puts tiles at the bottom of the pot, and uses pine needle soil and decomposed pine bark and sheep manure. This is also experience Dad summed up from growing orchids many times. Then the most important thing is that orchids cannot be exposed to the sun, so Dad places the potted orchids under a big tree to grow them. In this way, first, it can provide shade, and second, it creates suitable climate conditions for the orchids to grow, so now the orchids he grows get stronger pot by pot.

Another thing to note is that watering orchids takes three years of skill. In fact, there is no fixed pattern to follow when watering orchids. You can only keep adjusting and find the right path. There is no fixed method for growing orchids. Orchids differ, environments differ, and management methods also differ. As long as the new shoots of the orchid can grow normally and it does not get sick, that is the most correct management method.
