Remove this from your orchids' pots to ensure stunning winter blooms

If you have orchids, it is important to know that they require specific care. In the winter, it is necessary to remove one thing from their pots. Plan for this procedure today.

Although orchids are very popular in our homes and apartments, their care is difficult. If we neglect proper care for these plants, they can quickly lose their flowers, and their leaves will turn yellow. In the fall and winter, changing how they are cared for is necessary. One thing must be removed from their pots.

Many orchid owners focus primarily on regular watering and providing appropriate lighting. While these actions are crucial, one other task is extremely important in the fall-winter period.

Fall is a transitional period for orchids. During this time, they enter a state of dormancy, during which all feedings should be removed from their pots (including the popular liquid feedings enclosed in a plastic container). It is also a good time to refrain from using fertilizers, even homemade ones, as they can harm the plants. The orchid will repay you with lush blooms.

How else can you care for your orchids in the fall and winter? If they are on a windowsill, they should be moved to a place where they are not exposed to heat from radiators. This is extremely important because excessive heat can cause the plants to dry out and flowers to fall off, ultimately leading to their death.
