4. Fill with orchid-specific soil: Fill the pot with orchid-specific soil, keeping the soil loose and breathable.
5. Insert the orchid: Place the orchid in the pot, making sure the rhizome is in close contact with the soil.
6. Secure the orchid: Use fine wire or garden-specific绳子 (rope) to secure the orchid in the pot to prevent shaking.
7. Fertilize: After potting the orchid, you can apply some fertilizer to promote orchid growth.

3. Fertilizing: Occasionally apply an appropriate amount of fertilizer to the orchid to promote its growth.
