Good info for beginners. Glad to see him talk about not cutting spike off on phalaneopsis types until it is dead (no green area left) and dry all the way down - many new orchid owners lose the opportunity for rebloom on the old spikes and lots of flowers when they cut the bloom spikes off just because the current blooms are gone. I have a phal that bloomed in November and it has been in bud since - now the end of May. I cut the spike finally but it could NOT all orchid types do this - for example cattleyas don’t rebloom on the flower stalk - once the buds have emerged from the sheath - that’s it. When those are done you can remove any bits of dried sheath, flowers etc from that growth. It will only rebloom on a new growth and from a new sheath. However, the advice on not watering from above always seems contradictive as plants in the wild get rained on at least once per day to multiple times per day and even most of the day in fog for those orchids that grow high in cloud forests. Most folks fail to tell why you the difference and that it depends on your environment. I try to keep water off blooms unless they have a lot of airflow to dry them off no matter how grown and definitely don’t water anything with the full sun or even partial sun on them. Anyway - in the tropical forests most of these plants are growing upside down from how we have them in pots. In fact when you mount orchids, it is really best and more natural looking to plant upside down from how grown in a pot. This position will keep the crown area and in between the leaves drier and it won’t collect water and thus potentially cause rot. Mount phals higher on a mount and being upside down, the new leaves will grow downwards.
ive always been scared of having orchid, but i just got one beautiful orchid plant for xmas. Finally i get to learn how to care for them. Thank you for your expertise.
Great video and explanation. Your orchids are very beautiful. I was always intimidated by orchids as I have always heard that they are difficult to maintain. I'm glad I got to see your video before I decided to buy my first orchid. They are a beautiful addition to any home. Thank you for sharing your wisdom with us.
Thank you so much for sharing this information my husband gifted me this plant on my birthday and I was giving water almost everyday from top and my pot also closed I will transfer my plant to another pot which you suggested.thanks again
Dr. Suraj, You are a good teacher, lovey orchid you are showing. I have two orchids in which bloom small yellow flowers. Thanks 🙏. For your important tips. Regards. Zz from my home Canada 🇨🇦 but I am originally Indian, speck Bengali. Zz.
Very good tips on hw to grow orchids. I do follow some of your tips. Keep churning this kind of tips for plants and vegetables. Its good time now that covid-19 lockdown gives me more time to care for my garden and apply your tips. Tqvm.
Good video sir, but I want to ask you how came these orchids when they grow on the branch of a tree they grow healthy , even if they are drenched during continuous rainy days ?
sir, I have quite a lot of flowering plants put in my garden, but I face 2 major problems 1. The flowering happens only once and no repeatation. 2. The new leaves which are growing are crippled and don't grow to full size or proper shape. Can you please advice
I don't agree with many points, rubbing off water from orchid leaves looked funny to me. I grow the same dendeobium outdoor in Kerala and you can imagine the amount of direct rain it receives in monsoon. The plants are happy and flowering, so you are obviously wrong. Only thing is you need a drier medium (tree bark / coconut husk instead of moss) and container with better drainage. Orchids love watering and larger nurseries do misting, so water on leaves is perfect. Even though you mentioned phelenopsis few times, the ones you are showing is dendeobium. They are totally different, with different requirements. Dendeobium likes more light, some morning or evening light falling on them. Less sunlight, they won't flower. I have dendeobium growing in palm trees and they flower well.
Im quite confuse between dendrobium and phelnopsis. That's why i can't get information for my plant. U hv much knowledge about orchid. I buy it by mistake. Bcoz don't know light means sunlight or just indoor bright ness. Plz guide me indoor or outdoor, can i keep outdoor. May b my orchids is dendrobium.
U grow ur plant on trees so that is natural habitat for your plant. But i grow in pot so tell me something or instruct me about my potted plants. Thank you so much.
They absorb water and nutrients from its roots where a velamen coated spongy tissue remains there, which help to absorb them.Yes definitely these are the plants from rain forest. But if you have ever seen those plants in its natural habitat in forest,you might have noticed that the plants stems stoop down. Therefore, water is not retained in its nodal region.When we grow them in pots we keep them straight for its good look. My only point was not to allow the water to be retained in its nodal region.
Epiphytic orchids don't grow upright like the way we keep them in pots, they hang upside down from trees, so water runs off the leaves instead of pooling in the crown. When keeping orchids upright in captivity, water sitting in the crown can cause rot.
Ganesh Krishnan ...for those plants which don't grow in rain forest....and for a layman who has little idea or knowledge about epipytes....I think it is a very vital tip. There must be NO standing moisture orchids rot easily.sadly in a pot they are grown upright.in nature they make their adjustments.
I am trying to grow orchids but they are struggling. Thank you so much for sharing this video. I always learn so much because of your great explanations.
Sir u explain anything about any flowers so nicely that anyone can understand where can I find potting mix and what food and nutrients should I purchase for orchids pl rely
Im a plant lover and mainly im an orchid lover from many years im trying to plant an orchd but Many of my friends told me that for orchid plants we need an airconditipner but now i have seen ur video i really apprecite u , Beautiful tips sir so kind of u tq
There are many types of orchids. Many. Some DO need air conditioning! So need very bright light....others low light. Some want to be wet constantly. Others need to be dry between watering a, others need an entire dry season (usually winter). In other words orchids are a HUGE group. Research them. Pick the plants that you can provide the environment they require! Happy growing ✨🥰
Very well don sir! and informative. I agree with a lot and loved the pots also. Congratulations on the English, I live in BC, Canada and understood every word!. I should be so good with your language, and your knowledge. Excellent
Good information. Thanks a lot for sharing your knowledge about taking care of orchids. These kind of videos are helpful for so many like me. I would like to make a humble suggestion while recording/making a video in future. Always keep your background neat and tidy as possible. Your table and settings were okay, but not the surroundings ( I mean the terrace). Please don't feel bad, this is a humble advice, a thought that came to my mind to look everything perfect. Wishing you all the very best.
I have ladys slipper and use leaf mould and cocopeat. I added a little bit of cowdung too. They are growing nicely. I think the potting mix depends on the type of orchid
I am really learning alot watching your videos Dr. Suraj. I've always needed a ton of luck taking care of orchids. Some I was able to take care really well but there are times when I see rotten roots or falling leaves.. Now I know the leaves hate being wet. Thank you so much 😊
Dear Sir,first of all i would like to thank you for all the necessary information that you give regarding plantation of various plants. I like the way you make us understand about the detailed information about each plant. I ve never found such kind of videos in RUclips that gives us true information about plantation. It is my humble request to you sir that you make more and more such videos and make us aware of even the smallest information about plantation. A Ton of Thank you from me,sir.

sir
in my knowledge orchids can absorb water and nutritions through leafs stem and roots so water on leafs do nothing wrong with plants
this plant grows in rainforest not under roof so how could these plant be so allergic with water on leaves
They absorb water and nutrients from its roots where a velamen coated spongy tissue remains there, which help to absorb them.Yes definitely these are the plants from rain forest.
