How long does it take for orchids to rejuvenate? What are the characteristics of orchid rejuvenation?

1. Time required for rejuvenation

The time it takes for an orchid to grow strong is related to the variety being cultivated and the condition of the weak seedlings used. If the species you are growing is one with relatively strong growth capabilities, such as Jianlan, and the weak seedlings you are using are not too weak and have some young roots and young leaves, then it will only take about a year to successfully rejuvenate. However, if the species being cultivated is one with slightly weaker growth ability, and the weak seedlings used are not in good condition, then it will take 5-7 years, or even 10 years, to successfully revive them.

2. Characteristics after rejuvenation

1. The root system becomes developed: The root system of weak orchid seedlings is not well developed, which leads to their insufficient ability to absorb water and nutrients, and thus causes them to grow slowly. If the root system of the orchid seedlings has grown very developed, then the rejuvenation has basically been successful.

2. Able to grow healthily: The rejuvenated orchid seedlings must be able to grow healthily. If the orchid seedlings can grow new leaves every year, and the leaves of the plant grow more and more, and the plant shape becomes more and more lush, then it can be said that the rejuvenation is successful.

3. Can bloom smoothly: After rejuvenation, the plant's growth state returns to normal, so it can bloom normally when the flowering period comes. If the orchid seedlings can bloom normally during the flowering period, it can be said that the rejuvenation is successful.
