How to care for Dendrobium officinale? Does Dendrobium officinale need to be pruned?

1. How to maintain

1. Substrate: Before caring for Dendrobium officinale, you must first ensure that the substrate is good. This is quite important. You can use a loose, breathable substrate that also has drainage effects.

2. Light: Dendrobium candidum cannot tolerate strong light and likes to grow in a semi-shaded environment, so you must pay attention to the light and ensure bright sunlight but no direct light. The light is stronger in the summer, so at least 60% of the light needs to be blocked. The sun's intensity is lower in the winter, so more light can be seen, but at least 20% of the light needs to be blocked.

3. Temperature: It likes a cool environment, so the temperature must be kept good. It is more appropriate to maintain it at around 15-20 degrees Celsius. The temperature in summer should be kept below 35 degrees Celsius.

4. Water: Watering should be timely, but not too much. Wait until the substrate is dry before watering thoroughly. The water quality should be slightly acidic. If you use tap water at home, you need to leave it for a while before using it. Not only should we pay attention to watering, but also ensure good air humidity and spray water in time in summer.

5. Fertilization: Nutrients also need to be guaranteed, but not too much. Just apply thin fertilizer frequently.

2. Does it need pruning?

Dendrobium officinale does not need to be pruned, but be careful not to prune it too much during maintenance.
