You will need:
- 5 tablespoons of rice;

You can also pour rice water into a spray bottle. Then spray evenly on the top and bottom of the leaves. Now take a bowl, put the orchid in it and pour the same rice water up to the roots. Leave the orchid soaked in this way for about 1 hour so that the roots absorb as much nutrients as possible. Then allow the excess water to drain, dry and repeat this fertilization every 14 days.

Important:
Never place frozen rice water cubes directly on the orchid as they do not like the cold. After 2-3 weeks you will notice the difference. The leaves will always be green, new roots will grow and the plant will bloom profusely.
