MY plants sit in a sunny Southeast exposure window. There is a tempm drop at night. Because of this site & working with the orchid guy at the local botanical gardens, I realized that the seaweed extract may not have enough of the nutrients, so I have been fertilizing with the apprpriate fertilizer. I also use Epsom Salts occassionally as the phals need the Magnesium in the salts.
Epsom salt? I never heard this before. Do you dissolve it in water first? how often??
Schultz fertilizer:
Composition of Schultz Orchid Food
According to its label, Schultz Orchid Food has a composition of 19-31-17, which means that its dominant element is phosphorus (31% of the food's composition), with lower concentrations of nitrogen (19%) and potassium (17%). The higher phosphorus content supports bloom formation
