| mani, depending on the height of the plant. you feed the plant with dung
once every 6 month. But dung carries their fair share of problem. Pest such
as snails, spider mites, fungus.... So are you willing to add pesticides or snails
or slug killing chemical? Remember every time you add those you cause
stress to the plant, slow them down for a few weeks.
one solution is to add boiling water to the dung to kill anything in it. (I love
to use goat dung.) Let it cool down to room temperature . water the plant
with that. Dont add too much as you are also using urine to water the
plant. Watch the root; are they turning black due to chemical burn.
Remember the rules
fertilizer orchids weekly, weakly . It is far better to fertilize
every 2 or 3 days using 1/3 strength fertilizer than full strength
I end up using chemical fertilizer as my some of my orchids are seedling .
any pictures of the plant? |
