How to care for Phalaenopsis buds

1. Avoid wind

After it grows flower buds, it should not be exposed to cold wind. If it is blown by the wind, it may cause the flower buds to fall off. If the environment at home is too dry, you can ventilate it appropriately, but it should not be in a stuffy environment.

2. Control watering

After the flower buds grow, its demand for water decreases significantly, and the amount of watering needs to be controlled. Do not water at the same frequency as usual, and keep the soil in the pot dry. Too much water in the pot will cause the flower buds to fall off. Control the watering at the roots, but if the air is very dry, you can spray water to maintain humidity, otherwise the flowers and leaves will become wrinkled.

3. Increase Lighting

Supplementing light can promote the synthesis of nutrients. After the flower buds grow, they can be exposed to more sunlight and no longer need shade, which can make the flowers bloom better and more colorful and beautiful.

4. Stop fertilizing

Before the flower buds appear, you can add phosphorus and potassium fertilizers to ensure the flowers bloom. After the flowers bloom, you must control the fertilization and do not add any more fertilizer, otherwise the roots will not be able to bear it, resulting in root rot, and the entire plant will be damaged.
