The orchids are generally grown on a poor substrate, so it becomes essential to apply a fertilizer regularly to ensure that the plant is sufficiently fed in order to maximize its growth.
Commonly, orchids do not tolerate rich fertilizers so we recommend that a lightly concentrated brand should be fed to the plant once every two or three waterings.
- A light watering using clear water should be done on the eve of fertilizing.
- Each fertilizing application should be followed by at least 1 or 2 watering using clean
water each time.
- Do not fertilize during rest periods.
- Wait 3 weeks after repotting before resuming fertilizer.
We hope that the above advices will be helpful, however you will certainly find an answer to most of your questions in the books listed below.
