Orchids are self-sufficient plants, capable of extracting nutrients literally from the air. However, to accelerate growth, enhance the intensity and duration of flowering, they need to be fed regularly.

Important! Unlike other houseplants, orchids are not suitable for complex homemade mixtures. An unbalanced composition of fertilizers can cause a decrease in the viability of the orchid. These plants need specific fertilizers designed for epiphytes.

The line developed for orchids includes special fertilizers, pest and disease control products, activators and growth stimulants. The composition of the preparations is balanced taking into account the different stages of orchid development, which allows them to be used throughout the year.

Fertilizers and fertilizers

The product range includes natural organic, mineral and organomineral fertilizers. Compositions can be single-component or complex. Therefore, both experienced gardeners and beginners can use them. Each package indicates the detailed composition and method of use of the product.

Organic

Fertilizers of organic origin are represented by compositions based on vermicompost. It is a completely soluble, natural and environmentally friendly substance. It is a product of manure processing by California worms. In this form, beneficial substances reach the roots and stems of the plant faster and more efficiently. Available in two forms - liquid (water extract) and bulk.

Fertilizers are balanced in composition, contain all the necessary macro- and microelements for nutrition, growth hormones, as well as additives that improve soil properties: humic substances, enzymes, soil antibiotics.

They are universal in use. Suitable for soaking seeds, seedlings and fertilizing in open ground. They increase germination, improve the vitamin composition of fruits, accelerate growth and resistance to pests and diseases. They have a prolonged effect.

Organomineral

Organomineral fertilizers are represented by humic compositions with added microelements. They are designed for specific types of crops, so the choice of such drugs is very large.

Humic fertilizers are products based on organic substances. They are made from peat, silt, sapropel.

Joy's assortment includes humic fertilizers for vegetables and root crops, fruit and berry crops, flowering plants, conifers, lawns and indoor flowers. They provide the plantings with all the substances necessary for growth, so organomineral fertilizers are used for basic feeding. They are applied mainly in the spring, since the drugs have a short period of action. The substances in them are present in chelated form - they are easily accessible for absorption.

Mineral

Mineral fertilizers are suitable for experienced gardeners, as they require certain knowledge on the use and combination of such preparations with other fertilizers.

They contain the essential nutrients for all plants: nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium. Joy brand drugs can be single-component, consisting of one element, or complex, containing their combinations in different ratios.

Complex

These are the same mineral fertilizers based on nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium. But the ratio of all three components is different in the compositions for individual crops. Fertilizers in this form are recommended for beginning gardeners, since they are already ready for use, and there is no risk of overfeeding or underfeeding the plant with certain substances.

Mistakes when feeding orchids

Even the most effective orchid care product can cause irreparable harm instead of the desired result. This is exactly what happens to inexperienced gardeners, when the purchase of advertised products is followed by disappointment in their effectiveness. To prevent this from happening, you should follow simple rules for feeding orchids:

• Do not fertilize or use stimulants immediately after transplantation.
• Fertilizing is indicated only during the growing season, excluding the resting phase.
• It is strictly forbidden to stimulate plants weakened by disease or pests.
• It is unacceptable to water a dry substrate with a fertilizer solution without first moistening it.
• During periods with the highest (+24°C and above) and minimum low (+15°C and below) air temperatures, fertilizing should be suspended.

Tip No. 1. Do not rush to treat your entire collection of orchids with a new product at once. It is advisable to test the effect of an unfamiliar drug first on one plant. And only if there are no side effects, you can safely use it on other orchids.

Answers to flower growers' questions

Question No. 1. Different sources contain conflicting opinions about the advisability of feeding orchids during flowering. Does increased nutrition really reduce flowering?

Fertilizers and stimulants are used depending on the flowering stage. While flower stalks are forming, flower buds are being laid, buds are forming, additional nutrition is vital for the plant. During this period, the orchid is fed every 2 weeks. With the opening of the first flowers, feeding is stopped, and after dissolution, more than a third of the buds are stopped completely. An overfed plant can actually stop the process of bud formation and drop the already blooming flowers. If the orchid blooms for a long time (more than 3 months and up to six months), you can apply fertilizer at intervals of 1.5-2 months.
