Feed orchids a few small pills, and in 2 weeks they'll explode into a big clump, filling the house with fragrance when they bloom

Autumn really is the growing season for orchids. If you keep orchids at home, don't let them turn into "chives" anymore. A few expired small pills can make your orchids sprout suckers like crazy and even force out flower buds. Take a look quickly~

To grow orchids, first grow the roots. Two pills help you do it

Don't be fooled by the small tuft of leaves on top of the orchid, thin and weak as it looks. What matters most is still the root system below. It's fair to say that as long as you grow the root system strong, you won't have to worry about your orchid growing poorly!

1. Feed a vitamin B pill to boost root resistance

Orchid roots are rather fragile and rot at the slightest provocation, making them hard to keep alive well. Gardeners can keep some vitamin B on hand. People can take it, and flowers can take it too. Crush one pill and mix it into the watering water, once every 2 months is enough.

2. Add an aspirin and orchid roots grow fast

Orchids actually grow very slowly too. If you want to speed up growth, you can give them an aspirin tablet. This tablet is rather hard to dissolve. After crushing it, add a little alcohol and mix well. Wait for the alcohol to evaporate a bit, then dilute with water. Watering the orchid with it can speed up root growth.

Use this one thing for orchids, and a small tuft becomes a big clump

Orchids are always sparse and solitary, looking lonely. Autumn is exactly when orchids sprout and send up suckers. Just loosen the soil a bit and a whole group can grow!

1. Add tree bark and peanut shells

For orchid soil, wrap in some tree bark, leaf mold, peanut shells and sunflower seed shells. This is more suitable for orchids than bought nutrient soil. But be careful to disinfect it. Besides sunning it, it's best to steam it in a pot first, or spray some insecticidal and disinfecting solution before use.

2. Spread it on the pot surface, and small shoots can't be stopped

For growing orchids, besides the soil needing to be loose, it's best to spread some expanded clay pebbles or tree bark on the pot surface too. This way there's no resistance when shoots emerge, and flower buds come out much faster.

Only leaves grow and no flowers bloom? Switch to a different growing method quickly

They say growing orchids is about cultivating character, and gradually it turns into Zen-style plant care, blooming according to fate, and before you know it, it turns into grass... Huahua thinks we shouldn't get stuck in a rut. Switch to a different growing method quickly, and enjoy the orchids and their fragrance~

1. Autumn sunbathing, flower buds poke out

Although orchids are shade-tolerant, they can't bloom without sunlight. It's best to place them in a semi-shaded spot with diffused light at home. The sunlight from 8-10 in the morning is best. After a bit of sun, small flower buds drill out very quickly.

2. Watering is key, you must get it right

Watering orchids takes ten years of skill. Too much water easily rots the roots, but autumn is dry, so how can you bear to let the orchid wither? Don't worry. If it's a clay pot, evaporation is fast, so water about every 2-3 days; if it's a plastic pot, evaporation is slow, so you can water every 3-5 days.

If you ignore these leaves in autumn, the orchid gets worse the more you grow it

Orchids are elegant in posture. When you buy them, they're a fine orchid, but as you grow them, they turn ugly, and they don't bloom on time either. Actually, orchids are very attuned to people. If you don't help tidy them up, they have no choice but to give up on themselves~

1. Dry tips and withered yellow leaves, cut them quickly

Orchid leaves easily get dry tips and turn yellow. Watering and light are both causes, unless you take especially careful care of them. Leaf problems can't be repaired, and yellow leaves and withered leaves must be cut quickly, otherwise they easily spread to other leaves.

2. Pests and diseases, wait any longer and it's too late

Autumn temperatures are suitable, and all kinds of orchid pests and diseases come out. First, the placement location must be well ventilated. If you find spots and speckles, first check whether there are insects, clean off the small insects with a toothbrush, then spray insecticide. Diseased leaves must also be removed in time.
