Simple and safe method:
Choose pure cinnamon powder , without sugar or additives.
Sprinkle 1 teaspoon of cinnamon directly onto the orchid’s substrate once a month (close to the roots, but do not cover them completely).
Do not water immediately: let the cinnamon act as a natural barrier against microorganisms.
After 24 hours, you can resume normal watering.
👉 This treatment can be repeated every 3-4 weeks , especially during periods when the plant is most sensitive.
