- Apply a melted candle solution to the cut areas, forming a barrier against water infiltration.
- Garlic Water Solution:
- Mince 3 cloves of garlic and immerse them in 1 liter of room-temperature water.
- Allow the concoction to incubate for 1 day in a cool place.
- Orchid Soak:
- Following the 24-hour incubation, strain the mixture.
- Submerge the orchid branches in the garlic water for 20 minutes. Note: The leftover garlic water serves a dual purpose. It can be sprayed onto other orchids, functioning as a deterrent to insects and fungi, while concurrently stimulating root and flower sprout development.
- Planting and Initial Care:
- After a 30-minute soak, proceed to plant the orchid.
- Employ pine bark or dry pumice stone as a planting medium to aid in moisture absorption and prevent root rot.
- Situate in a cool place for 1 week, refraining from watering during this period.
- Ongoing Nurturing:
- Subsequently, ensure the orchid remains consistently moist.
- Place it in a location with a temperature between 20-25 degrees Celsius, avoiding direct sunlight.
