4. Maintaining Humidity & Air Circulation 🌬️
✅ Orchids love humidity! Maintain levels at 50-70% for best growth.
Use a humidity tray (place pebbles & water under the pot).
Mist the leaves lightly in the morning if the air is too dry.
✅ Ensure Good Airflow: Avoid stuffy environments. Open windows or use a gentle fan to prevent fungal growth.
5. Encouraging an Orchid to Bloom Again 🌿
✅ 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.
