[@thenaturecompany]

once a week for the first month then 2 times a month and as it gets better once a month till it has revived fully 💕 I think that's what you are asking for

depending on the orchid media you are growing in you will need to replace it every second year or so and depending on which type of orchid it is . Phalaenopsis can often grow in the same size container for their entire lives (also depending if you bought it mature or not . )

I like the way you explained with great patience about garlic water as tonic and kills all the germs on the leaves At the end you suggested not to use too much garlic water which will harm the leaves

[@thenaturecompany]

It is like all good things too much is a bad thing . So better to be safe than sorry . Phytotoxicity can be problematic with a lot of different products but does not stop us using them . In reasonable amounts it is completely harmless and very effective , it would really take a lot of overdosing to cause real problems but I have to put disclaimers in .

How long do you soak in garlic water?

[@vy.63]

can we use it without waiting for 24 hrs?

[@thenaturecompany]

you can but there will be less of the active ingredients in the water . some people boil it to draw out the ingredients faster but the heat can alter the chemical composition of some of the compounds .

Could sprout inhabitants(for improved shelf life)hamper the efficacy of garlic/ginger as a spray for orchids? Cheers from Western Australia Jan

[@thenaturecompany]

oh I certainly would think so . A lot of the micro nutrients and active ingredients in these natural products are often very volatile and other chemical additives will de-activate them . I would suggest you make them at home and use them directly . Rather make smaller quantities that you can use up in a month or so if storing them well . I hope this answers your question .
