How to prolong the flowering of an orchid: what to do with the plant after purchase
Orchids in the store are literally covered with flowers, so many people try to prolong the flowering of their newly acquired plant.
Trying to do the best, housewives make a mistake. You can't rush to replant an orchid if you want to prolong its flowering.
Selecting soil and a more suitable pot can be postponed until later.
First, the flower needs to be given freedom by removing the wrapper. It is important to do this carefully so as not to damage the plant.
Transport pots are placed in filtered water at room temperature for 1-1.5 hours. The roots will receive moisture through the drainage holes.
If the weather is cloudy, the orchid can be placed on the windowsill. The main thing is to keep it away from the scorching sun. The optimal room temperature is between +15 …+25 °C.
Leaving the plant alone after purchase can prolong flowering. When the orchid has completed the process, you can begin replanting.
