Owners of capricious orchids often encounter various kinds of difficulties when growing the plant.

According to the expert of the online publication Belnovosti, scientist-agronomist, landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh , a situation is often observed when there is a flower stalk, but no flowers.

Experienced gardeners are sure that the lack of flowering can be explained by sharp temperature fluctuations, in the case when the orchid pot was in a warm place and then ended up in a cold room.

A temperature difference of more than six degrees sometimes ends in disaster – the flower stops growing and develops.

To solve the problem that has arisen, it is worth seeking help from specially created growth simulators.

Among them are such drugs as Zircon, Epin, Yantar and others.

Regardless of the instructions on the package, reduce the dose by half the first time you use it. In this case, apply the composition only to moist soil, trying not to get it on the leaves.

When a week has passed after the first time, the solution should be applied again - and this time you should act strictly according to the instructions.
