Repotting does orchids well
So you put your orchids back on
Compassionate, the flowerless stalks tower over limp leaves and dry bulbs to the sky. Orchids with this appearance will get you going again with a well-directed wellness program. Using the example of the ever-popular Phalaenopsis, we will explain here how to revive flagellated orchids.
Repotting makes tired orchids happy - That's how it works
At the latest 3 years after the purchase, the orchid soil is exhausted. The organic components have decomposed, so now unnecessary pressure on the air roots is exercised. The dropping of the flowers and wrinkled, sagging leaves indicate the problem. Other causes, such as drought or waterlogging, are also cured by this measure. Here's how to do it:
With a twisting motion from the wrist, you poke the orchid and replenish the remaining substrate. A Phalaenopsis does not want to be immediately poured or dipped. For the first few days after repotting, spray the plant daily with lime-free water.
This care releases fresh floral powers
Once the butterfly orchid has recovered from the stress of potting, take the following care program to get it back in bloom:
Phalaenopsis and other types of orchids can encourage you to have a temperature drop to a fresh bud. For this purpose, the plants take a bright location for 4 to 6 weeks with temperatures not exceeding 16 degrees Celsius.
Tips
May your orchids seem so abolished; as long as green leaves, shoots and aerial roots are showing, please do not cut them off. Only when a plant part is completely dead, it may be cut off.
