The orchid that has been raised for a year has not bloomed yet.

There are many reasons why the orchid does not bloom. If it is due to lack of light, it needs to be exposed to the sun in the early morning or evening. If the temperature is too low, you need to keep warm and keep the temperature above 10°C. If it is due to overwatering, the excess water needs to be drained away. If it is due to insufficient nutrients, you need to add some phosphorus and potassium fertilizer to it, which can promote flowering.

1. Lack of light

Molania usually grows in a semi-shady environment and cannot accept strong light. But if there is no light at all, it will also cause it to not bloom. In the early morning or evening when the light is relatively soft, you can put it in a sunny place and let it bask in the sun. But pay attention to shade at noon to prevent the leaves from being sunburned.

2. The temperature is too low

Molania likes warm climates and its own cold tolerance is not strong, so it cannot grow in places with lower temperatures, otherwise it will not bloom. The temperature during the growth period should be controlled between 18-28°C. If the temperature is lower than 10°C, the plants will stop growing. Therefore, it is necessary to keep warm and cover the upper part of the plant with a bag.

3. Watering too much

Molania is suitable for growing in humid places, but if you water it too much, it will often inhibit flowering. Before the plant blooms, it is usually necessary to control the amount of water, extend the watering interval appropriately, keep the soil slightly moist, and do not make it too wet. If you water too much, be sure to drain the accumulated water in time.

4. Insufficient nutrients

Molans need certain nutrients to bloom. If the soil is poor and the fertilizer is not enough, the plants will not be able to bloom. Usually from late spring to late autumn, fertilizer should be applied once a week. The fertilizer can be organic fertilizer or inorganic fertilizer. In addition, before the plants bloom, a certain amount of phosphorus and potassium fertilizer can be added to promote flower blooming.
