Help Me With the Basics on Watering Cambodian Orchids
Default Help Me With the Basics on Watering Cambodian Orchids

Its pretty quiet in Siem Reap so in between Angkor Wat and Bangkok, I fiddle with Orchids, which are sold everywhere and are about a dollar each. I have attached some pics.

They are sold in little plastic pots or in baskets or Coconuts. Coconuts usually have 2or 3 plants, baskets 3, the ones in baskets they just put the orchids in without even taking off the pots! Then just fill the pot with coir

I have so many of them that I too am putting them in shallow pots, 3-4, filling them with coir and thats it.

All have some fertilizer that the Orchid ladies give me. Little round pellets.

My question is watering. The ones I have outside I water every day, sometimes twice in hot season especially when its breezy/ I use a pump up sprayer and wet the wood and mist the roots. But the ones inside in the pots? I have been wetting the wood and coir until a little water appears in the drainage, every other day and they seem healthy, but should I water more? Or less? I am getting lots of growth.

Thanks for your help.
