Orchids are not that hard to grow. In summer, you mainly just need to control the moisture and water content of the growing medium well, but do not let water accumulate in the potting soil, and do not let it get too dry either, otherwise the orchids will grow poorly and will not bloom. If you want to grow orchids that fill the pot and produce 100 flowers, this knowledge of watering cannot be lacking. It can be said that anyone who knows how to water can grow orchids well. If you do not believe it, try it!

1. To grow orchids well, you must be patient and careful. You cannot rush it. The principle for watering orchids is "do not water if not dry, and water thoroughly when you do." Choosing a good growing medium is the key to growing orchids well. For example, wood shavings, peanut shells, coconut coir, and so on are all top-grade materials, and their water retention is quite good. When watering, pay attention to observing the moisture in the growing medium. Test it with a long paper towel. If the paper towel is dry, water immediately.

When watering, adding some good orchid-specific nutrient solution is a must. It promotes roots and improves the growing medium, and the effect is really strong!

"Pouring" means using a watering can. It is traditional watering. Use the watering can to pour slowly. This has a large water flow and can quickly solve the watering problem, but this method more easily splashes water into the leaf core, so be careful, otherwise it very easily causes orchid core rot. "Soaking" means soaking the whole flowerpot in water and then lifting it out. This method is very popular abroad, and everyone can try it too.

3. Orchids had best not be watered with tap water. Collecting rainwater works quite well. When watering, adding some orchid-specific organic nutrient solution really works well. If you like it, try it quickly!
