Is it better to plant 6 or 5 Phalaenopsis orchids in one pot? How to handle them right after buying

Many people say that growing Phalaenopsis orchids well is a course that needs to be learned, and that ordinary beginners cannot grow them well. In fact, saying this is too one-sided. Although Phalaenopsis orchids are a bit more delicate compared with other flowers, if you reasonably master scientific care, you can still grow them into a beautiful sight. So what issues need attention in care?

In fact, growing Phalaenopsis orchids well is not saying it is too difficult, but many people cannot understand the principle of "no ventilation when crowded." Many modern people are limited to keeping them on balconies. Although they use sphagnum moss to plant them, it is also relatively difficult to control temperature and humidity to just the right degree. At this time, can you increase the number of Phalaenopsis orchids and then place them together in a concentrated way to solve it?

In fact, growing multiple pots of Phalaenopsis orchids together is indeed one of the best ways to maintain moisture. Of course, putting all your thought into creating a comfortable environment for orchids is a good thing, but you should not ignore that orchids actually have the instinct to acclimatize. Before being bought from the flower market, Phalaenopsis orchids are generally grown in greenhouses. Whether humidity or light, it is a relatively stable environment. At this time, when we buy the Phalaenopsis orchids back, the climate differs from greenhouse care. When the plants are not adapted, bud drop, soft and collapsing leaves, stopped leaf growth, new leaves not as large as the original leaves, and shriveled roots may occur. These states are temporary and are normal and need everyone to understand.

During the period just after buying them back, pay more attention to gradually giving the plants light and watering. They will also slowly recover on their own. Therefore, during this period, it is not recommended to rush to fertilize, nor is it recommended to buy too many thermometers for Phalaenopsis orchids for precise care, because only when the plants truly adapt to the home climate can they continue to continuously improve the root system's immunity to the environment later.

In addition, there is another experience, which is not to create humidity by spraying water, because when spraying water the humidity is high, and if the water cannot be dispersed immediately, the orchid suddenly does not know how to absorb water. At this time, the humidity remains on the leaves for a long time, and over time the leaves will develop bacterial spots, introducing problems such as soft rot and black rot.
