Orchids Watering


To watering our orchids its better to use sprayer. Because the water from sprayer will not destroy flower, leaves or orchids media. It is better that we watering the orchids just at its roots so that the water will be quickly absorbed. The water must be clean and not polluted.
Watering quantity and frequency is depend on the jind of orchids. Orchids with pseudolp (simpodial orchids) such Coeligyne, oncidium and Dendrobium generally more resistent with dry condition than Monopodial Orchids such Phalaenopsis and Vanda. Monopodial Orchids must be watered 2-3 x /day and simpodial orchids can be watered 1-2 x/day.
The right time to watering is in the morning between 07.00-09.00 AM and between 02.00-06.00 PM.
