Fertilization: Feed your orchid with a balanced orchid fertilizer every two weeks during the growing season. Dilute the fertilizer according to the manufacturer's instructions and apply it to damp soil to prevent root damage.
Potting and Repotting: Use a well-draining orchid mix, such as a bark-based medium, to ensure proper aeration and drainage. Repot your orchid every one to two years, preferably after flowering, to prevent overcrowding of the roots.
Air Circulation: Orchids thrive in good air circulation. Provide adequate ventilation by placing the plant in an area with gentle air movement, such as near an open window or using a fan on low setting.
