When to Suspect Orchid Illness?

Orchids, with their enchanting beauty, enhance homes and balconies. However, maintaining these plants can be challenging, especially when they fall ill or start deteriorating. Noticeable signs include rot in the plant or leaves, indicating urgent care is needed.

 

 

Natural Remedy for Unhealthy Orchids

If you spot rot, immediately cut off the affected part and isolate the pot to prevent spreading. Dry the rot area with absorbent paper and dispose of the waste safely.

Using Activated Charcoal

Crush natural, dry wood charcoal into a fine powder.

Sprinkle charcoal dust on the plant’s soil too.

Isolate the orchid and avoid watering for a week.
