CARE TIPS FOR OPTIFRIEND
Water the orchid once a week, preference to watering in the morning. Pour the water (preferably rainwater) on the soil in the pot, not in the heart of the plant. Even better is to immerse the plant in a bucket of water for 5 to 10 minutes every week. Grey roots are a sign that the plant needs watering
Give just a little water, too much can be fatal. In winter, half a glass every 2 months is sufficient. In spring and summer, water it once every 2 weeks

Use special orchid soil and fertilize the plant in the months March to October at least twice a month with preferred orchid fertilizer
