There’s only one ingredient for those who want to cultivate orchid flowers year-round and keep them lush. It’s a product we use every day and always have in every home. It’s milk.
Cow’s milk is a reservoir of proteins and calcium, which are essential for good growth and intense flowering of orchids. Furthermore, its antifungal properties are important for counteracting and controlling plant diseases.
How can I do this?
Add some water to the bottom of the milk bottle and then pour generously over the plants. It’s important not to use too pure a milk, as this can damage the flowers and cause an unpleasant odor.
Always alternate between water and milk sprays to ensure correct application. The DIY method is not recommended for orchids. If necessary, seek advice from industry experts.
