Every gardener wants delicate orchids to bloom all year round and remain green.
There is one penny ingredient that can do wonders for your flowers. And we are talking about baking soda.
Agronomist Anastasia Kovrizhnykh shared details of plant care.
Watering with settled water alone is not enough for the growth and lush flowering of this exotic plant.
To make the orchid bloom profusely and for a long time, you need to add baking soda to the water for watering.
As you know, capricious orchids need special care. And they can suddenly stop growing and blooming due to excessive watering.
Baking soda can regulate the pH of water and turn it into a miraculous elixir for flowers.

In addition, soda acts as an excellent antifungal and antibacterial agent.
By watering with water and soda, your orchid will remain healthy and produce even more buds.
To prepare the solution, simply mix 1 tablespoon of baking soda in 1 liter of water, stir thoroughly and water the plant with this solution once every 14 days.
