Orchid Care: How to Ensure Beautiful Flowering and Keep Your Plant Healthy

Give It a Temperature Drop: Orchids bloom when they experience a drop of 5-10°C (9-18°F) at night.

  • Keep them in a cooler spot at night (15-18°C or 60-65°F) to trigger new flowers.

Prune After Flowering:

  • Once blooms fall, cut the spike just above a node (joint) to encourage a second bloom.
  • If the spike turns brown, cut it back completely.

Repot Every 1-2 Years: If roots outgrow the pot, repot in fresh orchid mix after flowering.


6. Common Orchid Problems & How to Fix Them 🚨

Yellow Leaves: Overwatering or too much direct sunlight. Adjust watering & move to indirect light.
Wrinkled Leaves: Not enough water or humidity. Mist lightly & check soil moisture.
No Blooms: Needs a cooler night temperature & high-phosphorus fertilizer.
Mold on Roots: Poor drainage or overwatering. Use an airy potting mix & let roots dry between waterings.
