Typically, a mixture containing coarse perlite, spruce bark, and sphagnum moss will do the trick.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Light: Make sure your orchids get enough light, but avoid direct sunlight. Orchids prefer bright, indirect light, and insufficient light can lead to poor flowering. Too much light can burn the leaves.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Temperature: Keep your orchids about 15 degrees (8 \u00b0C) cooler at night than during the day to encourage flowering.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Watering: Water your orchids sparingly, allowing them to dry out between <a href=\"https:\/\/www.santeplusmag.com\/111119866-narrosez-plus-les-orchidees-avec-de-leau-arrosez-les-avec-ceci-pour-une-floraison-spectaculaire-jardin-et-potager-27-11-2022\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">waterings<\/a>. To check if they need water, insert your finger about an inch into the growing medium. If it&#8217;s dry, water your plants. Otherwise, postpone.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Humidity: Increase the humidity (between 50 and 60%) around your orchids by placing a saucer filled with water or a tray with pebbles under the plants. You can also use a humidifier to spray them daily.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Fertilization: Fertilize your orchids weekly or biweekly during active growth, then decrease to monthly or biweekly intervals once they reach maturity. When your orchids go dormant, it&#8217;s time to stop fertilizing altogether.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Signs of pests or diseases: Orchids are sometimes affected by mealybugs and aphids. Thanks to the advice we gave you above, you can get rid of it.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Transplanting: If, despite all the care given to your orchid, it stops blooming, therefore, the transplant is in order. It involves moving the plant to a slightly larger pot to allow its roots to develop better. This should be done every two years.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.santeplusmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Les-orchidees-doivent-recevoir-la-quantite-deau-necessaire-pour-bien-fleurir.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-390541\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you are a lover of nature and more specifically of plants, you probably know that pruning your orchids after flowering is essential to take proper care of them. The stem of an orchid naturally tends to dry out after flowering. Therefore, it is essential to know how to prune it properly to encourage new growth and future flowering. Here are a few things to remember to help you prune your orchids successfully:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>For a healthy orchid stem: They are green and firm, and show no visible signs of disease. To cut them, use clean, sanitized pruning shears or blades and make a clean cut. This is to prevent viruses and other batteries from entering the plant through this cut.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>For dead stems: Dead stems look wilted, yellow, or brown. They are unproductive. Cut them back to the base of the plant to stimulate root production in the plant.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.santeplusmag.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Pour-aider-vos-plantes-a-fleurir-a-nouveau-coupez-les-parties-defleuries.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-390540\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here&#8217;s a video that explains how to get your orchids to bloom again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Read also:<\/strong>Feng Shui: Where Should Mother-in-Law&#8217;s Tongue Be Placed to Attract Luck?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"blob:https:\/\/www.grandmothers-recipes.top\/8ab6314c-b6ec-4d2a-9411-7be4dcb9fc3b\" alt=\"Play video\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/PMBYLusTFUI\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Watch on YouTube<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By following these tips, you will be able to care for your orchids easily and enjoy them for many years to come.
