Dendrobium Care For The Young Enthusiast

This is going to be a short post, but I will get straight to the point with some tips for caring for these easy orchid plants. Dendrobium care can be very easy if you have some information on exactly how to maintain them. I am going to discuss just a few tips that you will need to know in order to have thriving flowers in your home immediately.

Pay Close Attention to The Watering and Moisture of These Flowers

While your flowers are being grown in your home you must pay attention to the wetness of your orchid medium. You will need to keep the soil a little more damp than usual because Dendrobium care requires that you allow enough water to grow healthy plants. During the dormant phase of these plants you will have to do the exact opposite when watering.

Instead of leaving the soil moist or damp you will need to allow the roots to dry out properly when it enters its dormant phase. When they are in this phase they will not absorb as much nutrients as in the normal growing process. Because these flowers will not absorb much nutrients it will not need as much water as it usual would when it comes out of dormancy. When your plants come out of this phase then you can begin to water your flowers on a regular basis.

Understanding and Applying The Proper Watering Needs

There are some simple ways you can properly water this orchid. Some gardeners and enthusiasts prefer spraying a little water daily on the medium and roots when they start to show. Use a small spray bottle to give your flowers the moisture that will result in flowering and beautiful orchids.

There is a process that you water down all the areas that happen to be around your plants which includes the pot walls, paths, and everything that happens to be close to your orchid container. This ladder method will allow for less damage to your Dendrobium plants and will allow for much easier growing of these beautiful flowers.

Like I said this will be a short post and I wanted to give you just a little bit of information that can help you caring for Dendrobiums. It is time to start growing these flowers right now and see how much help these tips can give you when planting them.
