Having indoor plants and a touch of green at home\u2026 What happiness! But I don’t have a good green thumb and I look with desolation at my withered orchid… It will never bloom again… Mistake! We entrust you with advice for its maintenance and you will say hello to your orchid again! Go to a gardening session\u2026 Reveal your hidden gifts for budding gardeners\u2026<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

1. We cut the dry roots and the deflowered stems at the height of the bud<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"cut<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Your orchid is starting to wither, how horrible! No panic! First we get rid of the withered flowers and the yellow, dry stems. Because a stem can bloom two or three times. To do this, appropriate and sterilized instruments are used, such as pruning shears.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then gently cut off the dry roots and stems above a bud. Happiness ! We took the first step towards finding a radiant, blooming plant. 0n then avoid watering the plant for fifteen days\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. We offer the plant a humid and bright environment<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"water<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

We can never remind you enough, but the orchid always needs a humid atmosphere to thrive. So we do not hesitate to spray its foliage, once a day. Yes, but… Be careful, of course, with excess watering!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once a week, moisten the pot, making sure to drain it after each operation. We prefer non-calcareous water, as recommended by the gardening site monjardinmamaison. Tip in +: we look at the roots. If they look gloomy, then it’s time to water!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dear readers, an orchid prefers humid areas and is afraid of heat. So if you placed it in a too sunny corner or near a radiator, it’s a big mistake! Quickly move it near a slightly dimmed light source.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, if the orchid has not bloomed for months, it is placed in a room at a temperature of 15\u00b0 for several weeks. Then we will witness the miracle of the orchid!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. We choose the right fertilizer\u2026 We make the orchid start again!<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

And  to make an orchid bloom again,  we make the right choice of fertilizer, that’s the secret, dear budding gardeners! yes, but\u2026 there are some simple rules to follow:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • We reduce the contribution of minerals and opt for specific products for orchids. We bet you don’t know!<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Avoid overdose! We dilute the products and alternate nitrogen fertilizers and potassium-rich fertilizers. You didn’t know it either!<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • What do we have to do now? remove dry roots, of course! We wait 15 days before adding fertilizer.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • This operation is repeated every ten days in summer and every month in winter. And now, if after that, your orchid doesn’t come back to life…<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    4. Transplant the orchid to promote growth<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    You may not know it! But repotting is an essential step to preserving your orchid. After three years, we changed the pot, yes! So we opt for a larger pot and decorate the orchid compost with coconut fiber, pine bark, rock wool or even perlite.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    What do we have to do now? We plant the orchid, cover the roots and that’s it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Bamboo Orchid, Cymbidium, Dendrobium, Phalaenopsis: How can I get my orchid to bloom quickly?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    Do you want  to save an orchid  and make it bloom again? We trust natural fertilizers. Yes, but what to choose? We have several options! Did you know that banana peel is rich in vitamins B6 and C but also in mineral salts such as potassium or magnesium? So why deprive yourself of it? Shall we try the experiment?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    • Soak the banana peels in a container with 2 liters of water.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • We waited about 48 hours.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • It is then used as irrigation water. It is very nutritious for the plant!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      Bonus tip: The same goes for eggshells which are rich in calcium and potassium.
      We crush and spread the fertilizer at the foot of the orchid. It’s simple, right?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
