Add 1 teaspoon of lemon juice to a container with 1 liter of water. This is a basic fertilizer that is ready to use in several ways.\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Cleaning the leaves\u00a0<br><\/strong>Dip a cloth into the resulting lemon fertilizer and gently wipe the leaves with it. This will remove dirt from the orchid. It will also create a protective layer against insects.\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Root nourishment<br><\/strong>Another way to use it is directly on the roots. Soak the orchid roots in a solution of water and lemon juice for a few minutes. This will strengthen the plant&#8217;s root system and its growth. Be careful not to touch the center of the plant. Moisture could cause rot.\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>How often to use<br><\/strong>This method can be repeated 1-2 times a month. Very light use is enough.

However, over-fertilizing them can be harmful. It is important to avoid fertilizing during the dormant season. NEVER fertilize an orchid directly with lemon juice, as it could damage the roots.\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Share this trick for a healthy and blooming orchid with your friends!
