Place the potted orchid in a cool, shaded area with good air circulation.
Avoid direct sunlight, which can cause dehydration.
Do not water the orchid for the first week after repotting to allow the cut roots to heal and prevent further rot. Flora& Fauna
Step 5: Resuming Watering
After a week, you can begin watering your orchid again:
Soak the entire pot in clean water for 10 minutes once a week.
Remove the orchid from the water and allow excess moisture to drain.
Cover the pot with
a transparent plastic box to create a greenhouse effect, helping retain humidity and encourage faster root growth.
Continue watering weekly to keep the moss moist but not soggy.
Step 6: Nutrient Boost with Rice Water
Once the orchid has started developing new roots, it will need additional nutrients to grow stronger. Rice water is an excellent natural fertilizer that provides essential minerals and
amino acids that promote plant health. IdentifyPlants
Take 2 liters of water and add 5 teaspoons of rice.
