Florovit fertiliser spikes for orchids
Fertiliser spikes have been adjusted to meet the requirements of orchids (Phalaenopsis in particular).
Balanced set of selected nutrients, adjusted to orchids and their needs, ensures long-lasting and abundant flowering.
Method of application:
Place a proper number of fertiliser spikes deep in the substrate between the plant and the edge of the pot, and then water it. Depending on needs, apply again after 3 months. Apply the fertiliser for orchids when flowers are in the growth phase (flowering, young shoots, leaves).
NOTE: In case of orchid species, which are particularly sensitive to salinity (Miltonia, Paphiopedilum) reduce the number of fertiliser spikes by half.
