Why does the orchid never bloom after the buds grow? How can I make it bloom?

1. Why do orchids never bloom after they have buds?

1. Unsuitable temperature: Most orchids prefer a cool environment and are more likely to bloom in an environment of 15-20℃. If you keep it in a place that is too cold or too hot for a long time, it will not bloom.

2. Disease and insects: If you place the orchid in a poorly ventilated place and do not take good care of it, causing it to become sick or infested with insects, then its flower buds will wither and will not bloom normally.

3. No vernalization: Some orchid varieties that bloom in winter and spring need to undergo vernalization after the flower buds grow out, which means they need to be kept at low temperatures for a period of time before they can bloom successfully. If you keep them in a warm place after they form flower buds, they will not bloom.

4. Excessive watering: If you do not control the water in time after the orchid grows buds and water it frequently, it will damage its root system and prevent it from blooming.
