This cheap stuff, buy a jin, soak it in water and feed it to your orchids, and the flowers will fill the pot, saving you even the cost of flower fertilizer.

Today, orchids, as a popular flower, are being embraced and accepted by more and more gardening enthusiasts. Not only because orchids have their own elegant and pure qualities, but also because they have a refreshing, delightful fragrance. They can be grown in groups or planted on their own, and they are also one of the excellent potted plants for home cultivation.

For such a popular flower, more and more people are caring for it, and the methods are varied. However, when caring for orchids, daily watering and fertilizing are essential. From my personal perspective on growing orchids, I believe that caring for orchids does not require expensive orchid potting media and orchid-specific fertilizers; rather, it should be practical, and cheap things can also make orchid leaves thick and full and the flowers fill the pot.

Whether in the city or in the countryside, there is such a cheap item, and that is the potato, which we also call tudou or yangyu here. We can use potatoes to make potato fertilizer water, because potatoes are rich in nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, calcium and trace elements such as iron and zinc. These elements greatly promote the growth and flower buds of orchids.

The specific method for making this kind of orchid fertilizer is very simple. Just wash a jin of potatoes and cut them into small pieces, then soak them in about five liters of clean water, and after soaking for 24 hours they can be used to water orchids.

In summer, we can use this potato fertilizer water to water orchids. Usually we choose to water four times a month; orchids watered this way will gradually become lush with branches and leaves, and it will also promote the sprouting of orchid shoots, with orchid buds increasing rapidly. At the same time, when the orchids bloom, the colors are extremely vivid.

When we normally care for orchids, once we find yellowed orchid leaves or empty-shelled orchid roots, we should prune them promptly. Likewise, for orchids that have already bloomed, in order to ensure sufficient nutrients, we should prune the orchids that have bloomed, also ensuring lush branches and leaves the following year. Do you have any other ideas about this kind of care method?
