Rare Vanda Orchids Price and Care Tips

Orchids thrive better in moss, tomato and tree bark. You can water it every other day during hot weather and twice or once a week during cold weather.

You can use  NUTRICOTE as a fertilizer. It is a high-quality compound fertilizer coated in a unique resin to ensure a precise, controlled release of nutrients.

• The durable, resilient and uniform coating allows the penetration of water and subsequent release of fertilizer into the soil or potting medium.

• NUTRICOTE 13-11-11+2MgO+TE Type 180 will release 80% of its Nitrogen evenly over 180 (+-) days at a constant temperature of 27° C.

• The rate of release of NUTRICOTE® is moderately affected by temperature. As temperatures turn warmer, the rate of release of nutrients will increase, coinciding with the rate of plant growth.

• Consistent rate of release provides steady feeding according to your plants' nutritional needs.

• Reduced leaching, so optimum fertilizer levels are maintained.

• Manufactured in Japan.

Direction for use

NUTRICOTE should be applied according to soil or growing media conditions and the specific nutrients requirement of the plants being grown.

STEP 1 - Determine whether your plant requires sensitive, medium, or heavy feeding.

Sensitive Plants - Orchids, Ferns, Azelea, Gardenia, Forestry Seedlings, Rhododendron, Greenhouse vegetables, African violets, succulents.

Medium Feeding Plants - Nursery plants, Cut flowers, Bedding plants, Woody Ornamentals.

Heavy Feeding Plants - Potted Plants, foliage plants.

As orchid plants reach the maturity phase, a higher concentration of Phosphorus (P) and Potassium (K) should be sprayed to ripen and harden off the bulbs and to ensure good flowers, before the plant enters its resting period. 

To achieve the best quality flowers in every orchid plant form, color, size, substance and texture and floriferousness the best foliar formulation to use is the Grow More Orchid Bloom Formula (6-30-30). The high amount of potassium and phosphorus will ensure hardening-off of the bulbs and formation of well-developed spikes.
