1. Maintenance and management methods

1. Keep warm: Orchids that have just been repotted are relatively weak. At this time, it needs to be provided with a warm environment of 15-25℃. This will allow it to quickly adapt to the new pot and new soil and resume growth.

2. Control watering: Orchids that have just been repotted should not be watered too much. Because the root system and the plant material are not very tightly combined at this time, they cannot absorb a lot of water from the plant material. If you water it too much, it may cause root rot. Therefore, water only when the plant material dries out to provide it with the necessary moisture.

3. Stop fertilizing: Based on the same reason as water control , it is best not to fertilize it at this time. It is recommended to maintain it for a period of time, and then resume fertilizing after its root system and plant material are more closely integrated.

4. Maintain ventilation: During maintenance, you need to expose it to some fresh air. This will allow it to grow back faster and grow stronger.
