t is necessary to take the utmost care, watering and feeding constantly.
Many choose to rely on some fertilizers that are easily found on the market, but the advice is to opt for a natural product, easy to make and above all cheap.
The first thing to do is to put five tablespoons of rice in a bowl, then pour in 500ml of water at room temperature. Once this step is done, mix the rice well in the water. Once this is done, the rice is poured into another bowl and filtered through a sieve.A cotton ball is moistened in the water obtained and the solution is applied to the top and bottom of the leaves of the orchid, in order to clean them well and remove all traces of fungi and insects. In addition, the solution will also ensure that the leaves receive adequate nutrients, which are necessary for the orchid’s growth. This operation should be repeated every two weeks, to promote the strong and lush growth of this wonderful plant.
An alternative method is to pour the rice water obtained with the previous procedure into a spray bottle, using a funnel.
This way, you can spray the solution on the bottom and top of the leaves. The efficiency is practically the same as the previous method with the cotton pad. The most important thing to remember is not to sprinkle rice water on the flowers, as it could damage them.
