They are not plants for everyone, that’s for sure, but with the right precautions it is possible to make them last a long time. Let’s see how to do it with a do-it-yourself method.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Until a few years ago, the cultivation of orchids<\/strong> was intended for a few, since the plants had considerable costs and, above all, required a greenhouse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Over the years, numerous varieties of orchids have been imported<\/strong> , even from colder countries, which therefore adapt very well to growing in apartments without the need for specific equipment. This, added to the hybrid species created by researchers, has made orchids much more popular and less expensive. In fact, orchids are originally tropical plants from Asia and America and can reach heights of up to 60 cm. Its care does not require daily attention but that does not mean that it is simple<\/strong> .<\/p>\n\n\n\n In fact, there are many orchid fertilizers on the market to keep them at their best. To give the proper vigor to your orchids<\/strong> you will only need a small potato (you actually need 20 grams) and a liter of water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n But why a potato?<\/p>\n\n\n\n Perhaps few people know that potatoes are tubers with excellent properties even outside the kitchen. In particular, they are widely used in gardening due to their excellent fertilizing properties. For example, potato peelings can be added to regular soil as a natural fertilizer.<\/strong> Even potatoes cut in half<\/strong> are often used to create cuttings of other plants such as roses or geraniums, thus acting as a true \u201cincubator\u201d for the development of the roots of the cutting. To make your own fertilizer for orchids,<\/strong> just cut 20 grams of potato into pieces, put it in the blender and add a liter of strictly non-calcareous water.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Turn on the blender until you obtain a smooth mixture. Using a strainer, filter the liquid to eliminate any residue and pour it into a spray bottle.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Now all you have to do is spray the mixture liberally<\/strong> on the leaves and roots of your orchids 2 times a month to make the plant grow stronger and healthier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The best times for this procedure are in the morning or early afternoon.
