Orchids galore and always vigorous with a hint of this
Vigorous Orchids with a Spoonful of Garlic:
If your orchids haven’t bloomed yet, they may benefit from a change in their environment. Typically, these plants bloom during seasonal changes. However, there’s a natural ingredient that fosters orchid proliferation, particularly in root development and activation.
The surprising ingredient found in every kitchen is garlic. Yes, you read it correctly—garlic powder can be beneficial for orchids. Garlic acts as a natural antibiotic, safeguarding plants against fungal diseases and insects while aiding in the removal of dead roots and leaves.
To create a liquid nutrient for orchids, take a spoonful of garlic powder and place it in a glass. Pour boiling water over it, mix thoroughly, and allow the contents to cool. For medium-sized orchids, use five tablespoons of water with minced garlic. Repeat this process every two weeks, being cautious not to overfeed the orchids with liquid, as excess may not yield the desired results.
