How to grow orchids

1. Soil

To grow orchids, you need to use slightly acidic soil rich in humus. In addition, you need to choose soil with good air permeability so that its roots can grow better. In addition, if you have old soil that has been used to grow orchids, you can process it and continue to use it. Such soil contains orchid bacteria, which is beneficial to the growth of orchid roots.

2. Temperature

Orchids have very strict temperature requirements and need to be kept warm enough. In summer, it needs shade and ventilation to lower the temperature; in winter, it needs to be moved indoors and certain measures need to be taken to keep it warm.

3. Lighting

It is relatively light-loving and requires sufficient light when grown. In summer, you need to use a shade net to shade it so that its leaves will not be burned.

4. Moisture

It prefers relatively moist moisture conditions. In spring and autumn, water every two or three days when the soil is slightly dry. In summer, water evaporates more easily, so the frequency of watering needs to be increased appropriately. In winter, you need to reduce the frequency of watering to prevent frost damage caused by excessive water.
