Error 1
You can't deviate from the plant care plan. You can't act at your own discretion here. Experienced gardeners recommend starting from already known information.
Error 2
Due to inexperience, novice flower growers may place pots on the windowsill. This should not be done, otherwise the orchid may get burned. Direct sunlight should not fall on the fragile petals.
How do you know if an orchid is getting too much light? Just look at the leaves. If they turn yellow, that's a sign of a problem.
Error 3
In a place that is too dark, the flower will also feel uncomfortable.
If your home lacks natural light, you should consider special lamps.
Error 4
Excessive watering destroys the orchid.
You need to wait for the soil to dry out, and only then proceed to moisten it again.
It is important to keep in mind that many orchids can go without water for weeks.
Error 5
Regular watering is not always able to provide the plant with the necessary nutrients. If the orchid experiences a deficiency in them, it will simply stop blooming.
Therefore, experts recommend feeding the flower with fertilizers with microelements that will help the flower feel good.
