How to care orchid

There are 4 basic orchid plants care should be considered. And this can not be abandoned. If you want to get a captivating display of orchids in bloom and diligent.
 
 Light the Sun

    Orchids do not require full sun intensity. Each type of orchid requires a different intensity of the sun. During the growth of orchids need shade. Like the original habitat, where the orchids grow in the woods,. Phalaenopsis, orchid species that require the lowest intensity of the sun, 20%. Other types in the range 40% - 60%. For shade, easy to use paranet. Paranet thickness tailored to the needs of the intensity of sunlight that titanam species of orchids. Avoid direct sunlight and excessive. Excess intensity of sunlight will cause the leaves turn yellow like fire.
Watering
    Watering on orchid plants is strongly influenced by the growing media, plant size, ambient temperature, humidity, air flow and type of pots used. Orchid plants should be watered using a sprayer, so that the droplets of water coming out can be arranged, so as not to damage the growing media, orchid flowers and leaves. A good watering directly sprayed on the roots, so readily absorbed.
   Watering well done in the morning hours 7:00 ~ 09:00 and the afternoon at 15.00 ~ 17.00. Do not flush too many orchids. Stagnant water in the pot can make the roots rot and the plant dies. Frequency of watering depends on the type of orchid. Orchids that have pseudobulb (orchid simpodial) more drought resistant, for example: Oncidium, Dendrobium, Cattleya. Watering on the type of orchid is quite 1-2 times a day. Monopodial orchids should be watered more frequently, 2-3 times a day, for example: phalaenopsis and Vanda.
Fertilization
    Basic fertilizing orchid plant is a growth phase. There are two phases of the growth of orchids. Vegetative growth phase is the period of orchid plants from seeding until the young orchids. Generative phase is when the orchid starts up and ready
In the vegetative phase of the fertilizer should be used is the fertilizer that is rich in elements of N. The element N is the main ingredient building blocks of protein that is needed in the process of cell division. So that plant growth could be faster. In the generative phase can be given fertilizer with nutrients P higher. Which serves to stimulate the process of flower formation. Can also be given vitamins and growth hormones.
A good fertilization is through the leaves, because leaves have a greater absorption than the roots. Do not give fertilizer by sprinkling directly into the pot. Root fertilizer is absorbed only by water-borne fertilizer. The right time to fertilization is when the mouth is open leaf, which is ~ 10.00 and 08.00 hours or at 15.00 ~ 17.00. So that the process of food absorption takes place more quickly.
Replacement Pot
    Replacement is the process whereby plants potted orchid is planted over with larger pots with new planting medium. Given the growth of orchid plants are growing, long feared not enough to accommodate pots when the plants ready for flowering orchid. When to perform the replacement pot no definite time. Everyday observations of foresight is needed. As for the sign at the right time doing the replacement pots are:

       1. Pot has been rife with new shoots
       2. Pot is not sufficiently accommodate the roots
       3. A lot of moss growing media
       4. Growing media has been broken and weathered.


    Only 4 basic treatment should be considered, to obtain good growth of orchid plants. While the other is as a support or incidental. Failure to perform basic maintenance is certain to cause the failure of all. Ie thin crop of less manicured, are prone to pests and diseases and delay flowering. Even the most severe can cause death.
