The best time to repot orchids: miss it and even the best orchid will struggle to bloom

Generally, repotting an orchid is done in the early stage of its growth, that is, in spring, when it is just about to start growing - this is the best time to repot. At this time, the roots recover quickly after repotting, and during growth it helps with absorbing nutrients and water, so growth will be relatively fast,

If it is an orchid that has grown for many years, it will have many offshoot buds, and once those offshoot buds have grown their own main roots, you can take this opportunity to divide the orchid: cut the main roots from the connection point and plant them separately. With good care, it is quite normal for one orchid to produce four or five offshoots in a year,

Of course, in greenhouses dedicated to growing orchids, even more small offshoots will be produced, because in the greenhouse the fertilizer and water are plentiful and the environment is suitable, so more small offshoots will be produced

For the soil used for orchids, we should use loose, breathable soil, preferably mostly granular soil. Orchid roots are relatively thick water roots, and watering should be sufficient. Only when the potting soil is loose and breathable will more watering not cause root rot,

Orchids require a relatively humid growing environment. Usually we should spray water around the orchid more often to increase air humidity

During the orchid's growing period, give it sufficient light; in summer, provide shade and do not expose it to blazing sun,

During the growing period, fertilizer and water must be sufficient. Apply a multi-element organic fertilizer once or twice a month, and be sure to apply thin fertilizer frequently, so the orchid will grow vigorously. During the orchid's bud stage, apply phosphorus and potassium fertilizer once or twice, which helps it send up spikes quickly and bloom more

Master these few points, and it is easy to grow orchids well
