2. How often to water

The frequency and amount of watering for orchids is determined by the environmental climate. If it is in spring and autumn, it needs to be watered 2 or 3 times a week, because the climate is not particularly dry in spring and autumn. In summer, the frequency of watering needs to be faster. In summer, twice a day is enough. In winter, you need to water sparingly, once or twice a week. At this time, the plants are semi-dormant and only need a small amount of water to maintain them.
