This temperature suits your orchids very much - overview for popular species
One of the supporting pillars in the expert care of orchids is the temperature at the site. For your guidance, we have compiled the ideal day and night temperatures for summer and winter for popular species.
Recommended temperatures at a glance
To get the best out of your orchid, normal room temperatures are not always enough. The ideal heat scale for popular orchid species is based on more precise values:
It is important to note that orchids are not exposed to temperature fluctuations of more than 5 degrees Celsius. With a minimum-maximum thermometer, you can easily see if this premise is met at the chosen location.
No light without light
The ideal temperature level alone is not enough to move the queen of flowers to a glorious flowering time. Only in combination with bright light conditions without blazing midday sun in the summer, the high expectations are met.
Tips
With a targeted temperature fluctuation you promote the new flower approach to Phalaenopsis. For this purpose, the orchid lingers from the fourth week after the last fall of flowers in a bright, cool room with temperatures between 15 and 16 degrees Celsius. If the noble houseplant returns to its normal position after 6 weeks, the fresh buds will not be long in coming.
