1. Inspection

1. Inspection

It must be solved in time to help the normal growth of the ball orchid in the later stage.

2. Lighting

After buying it home, do not let the orchid be exposed to too much light. Maintain it in a cool and shaded place for a period of time to allow it to slowly adapt to the new environment. During this period, do not let the plant be exposed to direct sunlight, as it may easily get sunburned. Slowly increase the light intensity after adapting to the environment.

3. Ventilation

It is necessary to strengthen the ventilation of the environment around the newly purchased orchid, because its body is currently relatively fragile. If the surrounding environment is not ventilated and the air is not flowing smoothly, it is very easy to develop some diseases. Therefore, ventilation should be strengthened to prevent the emergence of diseases.

4. Watering

Because the ball orchid has not adapted to the new environment, its growth and development is slow and its demand for water is not strong, so it needs to be watered according to the dryness of the soil, etc. Water after the soil is dry and keep the soil moist.
