What conditions need to be met for the reblooming of a Phalaenopsis orchid after its flowers fade
Previously, I shared with you that when we are growing a Phalaenopsis orchid, after the flowers are almost wilted, if we want to make the orchid rebloom, we can cut it about three to four sections from the base upwards. Then, when it's time to bloom, you should stop fertilizing. If you want your Phalaenopsis orchid to rebloom, you must meet this prerequisite condition.
Previously, I shared with you that when we are growing a Phalaenopsis orchid, after the flowers are almost wilted, if we want to make the orchid rebloom, we can cut it about three to four sections from the base upwards.
Then, your Phalaenopsis orchid will grow a flower spike from the node above where you cut. It will bloom a second time, but if you want your Phalaenopsis orchid to rebloom, there is a condition. What is that condition?
1. Conditions for reblooming
The condition is that your Phalaenopsis orchid must have at least five leaves, should be a strong seedling, which means your plant is not infected with any diseases or pests and is growing very well. The leaves should be at least five, and then we can make this kind of plant rebloom.
Then, count about three to four sections from the bottom upwards and make a cut. Trim this flower spike. If your plant does not meet this condition, we recommend that you should not let it rebloom. Just cut the flower stem from the base.
Because if your plant does not have more than five leaves and is not growing well, if you let it rebloom, it will consume a lot of nutrients because the plant's reproductive growth consumes too many nutrients, and its vitality is not particularly strong.
If you let it bloom and it consumes too many nutrients, it will lead to your plant's growth becoming very weak later on, and it might show signs of withering and dying. Therefore, we must meet this condition to let it rebloom.
2. Fertilization
If you want it to rebloom, you must supplement it with an appropriate amount of phosphorus and potassium fertilizer. You can use this kind of high-phosphorus potassium fertilizer, such as "Flower More No. 2", and spray it on your Phalaenopsis orchid once every 7 to 15 days. Then, it will be able to rebloom soon.
Then, stop fertilizing when it's time to bloom. If you want your Phalaenopsis orchid to rebloom, you must meet this prerequisite condition.
The above is [] all about the conditions that need to be met for a Phalaenopsis orchid to rebloom after its flowers fade. Green plant enthusiasts may refer to this aspect for reference.
