How often should I water my dendrobium?

Dendrobium likes a humid growing environment, and the air humidity should be kept above 80%. It is better to water the plant in a dry environment rather than a wet environment. Be careful not to allow water to accumulate. The plant is more suitable for watering with rainwater, river water, well water, etc. It can also be watered with tap water after drying in the sun.

1. Watering in spring

As the temperature rises in spring, Dendrobium is also in its vigorous growth period, so watering must be timely, generally once a day.

2. Watering in summer

Dendrobium is not resistant to high temperatures, and the temperature in summer is high and evaporation is fast. It is recommended to water it twice a day, in the early morning and evening respectively. If necessary, spray more water to keep it moist.

3. Watering in autumn

As the weather gradually turns cooler in autumn, you can reduce the frequency of watering appropriately, watering once every 2-3 days is sufficient.

4. Watering in winter

In the winter in the south, Dendrobium can be watered every 3-5 days, while in the north where the winter climate is cold, it can be watered every 7-15 days.

Dendrobium watering precautions

It is best to water the Dendrobium plant with rainwater, but rainwater is difficult to collect after all, so you can also use tap water. It would be better if you put it in the sun to dry before watering to remove the chlorine in it.
