In this video will tell u about homemade fertilizer for orchid plant.
Homemade Orchid Fertilizer (or commercial orchid fertilizer) is essential for your orchid's growth. They provide the nutrients it needs to promote flowering, healthy stems, shoots, foliage and roots. There are a number of homemade orchid fertilizers you can make easily, although commercial fertilizers are the best source of balanced nutrition for your orchids.
Some of the most popular homemade orchid fertilizers contain:
Milk
Tea
Eggshells
Crushed dried chicken bones.
Molasses
Potatoes
Water that rice has been boiled in
Why do these homemade orchid fertilizer recipes help orchids?
Orchids thrive when they are fed the proper balance of Nitrogen (N), Phosphorous (P) and Potassium (K), preferably given in a water-soluble formula. These 3 nutrients are known as macro-nutrients (N-P-K). Milk, Tea, Eggshells, Crushed dried chicken bones, Molasses, Water that rice has been boiled in, and Potatoes contain some of these elements, although not in an entirely balanced way as you'll read later.
1-Nitrogen is for foliage, stem and shoot growth.
2-Phosphorous aids healthy root growth.
3-Potassium promotes flowering.
Precautions:
If you are unsure that your orchids will thrive with the use of your homemade orchid fertilizer, you could try using them on the least favorite in your collection as a trial run!
Remember to flush your orchid pot through once a month, with plenty of water, to wash out any build up of fertilizer salts that may have occurred.
Leaves dying at the tips.
By using all or any of the above you cannot be sure that your orchid is getting the correct amount of nutrients. Watch your plants carefully and take note of good and bad reactions and if all else fails use a commercial fertilizer for peace of mind (and your orchids well being). Commercial Orchid Fertilizers are likely to be labeled using a N-P-K scale. This describes the concentration of each of the three macro-nutrients (Nitrogen (N), Phosphorous (P) and Potassium (K)) in the mix. A water-soluble 20-20-20 fertilizer is ideal for most orchids.
