Do I need to spray orchids with medicine to prevent diseases after they have adapted to the pot? Can I move them around at will?

1. Do you need to spray?

After the orchid has settled in the pot, it should be sprayed with medicine to prevent disease. Because after the plant has adapted to the pot, normal maintenance and management is sufficient, so spraying pesticides to prevent diseases is one of the necessary management steps. In addition, although the orchid has passed the acclimatization period, its disease resistance and defense capabilities are still relatively low, and it is easy to be attacked by diseases and pests. Therefore, after the orchid has adapted to the pot, you can spray it with medicine to prevent it from being harmed by diseases and pests, so that the plant can quickly resume growth.

After acclimatization, in addition to spraying pesticides to prevent diseases and allow the plants to resume growth faster, you also need to pay attention to water and fertilizer management, temperature and maintenance environment. The orchid is still relatively fragile after acclimatizing, and cannot be placed in a place with strong light immediately. The ventilation conditions of the plant's growth environment should be good, and the plant should be given appropriate thin fertilizer to improve its resistance. If you repot or plant in the fall, you must take measures to spray pesticides to prevent diseases. Because autumn is the peak season for diseases and insect pests, special attention should be paid.

2. Can I move it at will?

The orchid can be moved after it has adapted to the pot, but it is best not to move it casually. Because the newly potted orchid is still in the adaptation period, the plant has just adapted to the growth environment. If you move the plant at will at this time, the plant will spend a lot of energy adapting to the environment, which will prolong its time to recover and grow, so it is best not to change or move the pot easily. After the plant has acclimatized, move it to a well-ventilated place with scattered light for maintenance. Just rotate the flowerpot periodically; there is no need to move it frequently.
