Depending on the type of plant chosen for cultivation it is very important to provide suitable climate. Among the climatic factors, temperatures vary depending on the type of plant. It should not be forgotten that day and night temperatures affect plant growth. Temperature affects not only growth but also flowering. Humidity is one of the factors that affect the growth of the plant, flowering, flowering and flowering. Therefore, it is necessary to consider the amount of water vapor contained in the air.

Sunlight also contributes to the success of plants. Orchid is a plant that loves sunshine in the morning. It is important to have direct sunlight in the morning. It is beneficial for the plant to get sunlight most of the day. But if the plant gets direct sunlight in the daytime, it will burn. Therefore the plant should be exposed to sunlight. How to provide shade for this is very important.
Orchid cultivation can be successfully done in a shade plant to provide the necessary shade, temperature and humidity.

It is necessary to build the shade houses properly. The nets should be made 10-12 feet above ground level. The use of concrete pillars by the GI to hold the mesh in place will last for some time. When considering durability, it is best to use other types of wood pillars.

Tables should be arranged to keep the plants indoors. It is most convenient to keep the plants about 2 1/2 feet from the ground level. When planting, it is necessary to drain more water and to ventilate the roots. Lack of proper care of these matters can damage the crops. Orchid plants need to be planted in such a way that the roots hang freely.

The beginning of an orchid planting should be done with good seedlings. It is important to get the plants in a reliable place. Problems can arise from profit-giving plants. In order to reap the benefits of the initial high cost, it is necessary to choose healthy, high-yielding, environmentally friendly varieties. It is best to plant in a single pot, usually 2-3 inches tall.

There are special containers used for this purpose. Earthenware is the most common use. Orchid pots are available in the market with orchids on the sides and bottom. Wooden containers are also available for purchase.

The medium used for potting is also specialized for orchids. Tropical orchids are used for tillage, tile, and brick. Some also use coconut husks. Plants are not fed by this medium. Therefore, when applying this media, it is important to choose a well drained and aerated roots. Proper quality flowers are needed for commercial cultivation. Proper environmental factors, proper media application, and proper supply of plant nutrients are all effective. Otherwise, the flower will not improve.

Watering the plants should also be done with care. Water purification is also important. Well water and rain water are suitable and chlorine pipe water is not suitable for cultivation. Pipe water should be kept in the air for 24 hours and kept in use. The pots should be dry before applying water. It is not advisable to use water in rainy or windy weather. Watering should be done once in a day under normal sunlight and twice a day when dry weather is present. All photos taken from my friend's orchids nursery.
